What the fee covers
Before
On your ownSearch exhibitors on the official site. Can't tell factories from traders by an English company name.
With FairTripI build a hall-and-booth list from your product. Key booths get a WeChat meeting booked in advance.
At the booth
On your ownAsk price in English, take a catalog, add WeChat. 5 minutes.
With FairTripI negotiate MOQ, tooling, lead time and payment terms in Chinese. Factory or trader confirmed on the spot. 20 minutes.
That evening
On your ownSorting cards, can't remember which booth was which.
With FairTripYou get a per-factory summary: terms, photos, contact's WeChat.
After
On your ownRequest samples on WeChat. "Sending soon." Two months pass.
With FairTripI chase samples, consolidate and ship them to Korea, inspect on arrival. If you order, we handle payment, QC and customs (separate rate).
Book flights and hotels yourself, or let us help. We can put you in the same hotel as the guide and point you to travel insurance.
A good fit if you are
- A brand or seller looking for a Chinese factory for the first time
- Trying to lower unit cost or MOQ against your current supplier
- A merchandiser who wants to see new products in person
- A company weighing exhibiting at, or researching, a Chinese fair
Another route is better if
- You only need to reorder from a factory you already use. StartMade, our buying-agent service, costs less.
- You want small-batch 1688 buying. A Yiwu wholesale market or buying agent fits better.
- You mainly want sightseeing. A travel-agency group tour fits better.
What I check at the booth
Ask in English at a booth and you get a price list. MOQ, tooling cost, lead time, and whether you're talking to a factory or a trader: those you have to ask in Chinese, on the spot. That's what I do next to you.
Only a few people per tour. In return you come home with a factory list with terms, not a stack of business cards.
