Suppliers' Comments
From Alibaba.com Sourcing Events
Guangzhou Sourcing Event

"Finding buyers online saves time, energy and money. Talking to buyers face-to-face to find out what they need is critical to our survival. After meeting with Chubb, we found a Technical Support Team to solve our technical issues and a Financial Team to help us calculate the cost of certain products."
Mr. Du, Manager, Guangdong Province Guangzhou Panyu Cable Works Co., Ltd.
"We introduced our newly developed and novel items during the conference. Prior to the event, we read the documents Alibaba.com provided us and carefully researched and developed samples based on buyers' needs.
We are always thinking about developing new products to attract buyers. Our latest products rotate automatically, a revolutionary new feature. "
Mr. Yan, Shenzhen Roman Electrical Technology Co., Ltd.
HongKong Sourcing Event

"Currently, our annual sales volume is 100 million Yuan and my experience is: suppliers should not overlook those small orders put forth by buyers online. Moreover, they should act more promptly and deliver goods as soon as possible. Based on mutual trust, buyers will keep working with you with big orders after factory visits. Generally, it takes about one year to establish close cooperation relationships, which is often neglected by many companies."
Mr. Liu, Manager, Dongguan Guangyu Printing Co., Ltd.
Auto Parts Sourcing Event
"We've been working with Campbell through an agent, so we never met them before. I brought lots of Campbell products to show the Big Buyers today and they were pleasantly surprised. Big Buyers inquired about our product prices and factory information.
I appreciate Alibaba.com for making all this happen because it helps us save costs and earn more profits."
Mr. Yang, Zhongshan Safeway Technology Co., Ltd.
"This event, including the supplier training, is so helpful for us. The presentation on the supply chain process is really useful. Schaeffler is a buyer that we lost contact with for a period of time and after the face-to-face meeting today, we finally realized what we were lacking in.
We will improve our products and services in the future. I believe that Alibaba.com's Big Buyer events are the way forward for all suppliers."
Mr. Mou, Shenzhen FENCY Science & Technology Co., Ltd.
Shenzhen Sourcing Event
"Alibaba.com Sourcing Events brought us foreign trade orders amounting to US$700,000 and domestic orders worth RMB3 million!"
"We have attended Sourcing Events held by Alibaba.com many times. We were selected by Woolworths the first time we met. Orders by Adeo, Carrefour, Wal-Mart and Auchan soon followed.
Woolworths placed an order amounting to USD200,000 after our meeting and this year, they raised their order to US$470,000. They even signed the contract while visiting our factory. Imagine how great this is for our company.
Apart from foreign trade, we also paid attention to the Chinese market. Since two months ago, we've received domestic orders amounting to RMB3 million, which is also beyond our expectations.
Now, we are a member of "Gold Suppliers", "China TrustPass", "TaoBao Mall" and we will always trust Alibaba.com."
Mr. Li, Zhongshan Sunway Electric Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
Yiwu Sourcing Event

"Two years ago, we became an Alibaba.com Member and have received orders worth over US$4 million through Alibaba.com over the last 2 years. Today, our meeting with Li & Fung was quite interesting and the buyer will send samples to us for reference.
We will then send a quote and make samples that match their needs."
Mr. Yang, General Manager, Yiwu Zhongnan Portfolio Co., Ltd.
"We really hope to learn from Li & Fung about how to be a great success. Thanks to Alibaba.com for inviting these big names to Yiwu and we hope to join more events soon.
Before the event, we reviewed the buyer's website and did full preparation as per their requirements.
As a trading company, we stand out because we are professional and offer excellent service. This is crucial for all trading companies around the globe."
Mr. Liu, General Manager, Kai-Leading Imp.& Exp. Corp., Ltd.
Nanning Sourcing Event

"Thanks is the only word I can say to Alibaba.com. We mainly deal with the manufacturing and processing of agricultural products and canned food is our best seller.
We mainly export to the EU, Middle East and Africa. Our buyers always find us through Alibaba.com"
Today's sourcing event is a rare chance for us to learn about Big Buyers??? purchasing flows and we had a very interesting meeting with Lotus. The buyer will visit our factory soon!"
Mr. Zhang, Ms. Liao, Wuzhou Wangfa New Artware Co., Ltd.
