In reply to Louis Li. Thanks for your experience sharing. Firstly, all platforms charge the suppliers or factories that shown in the top 10 a higher fee, it's reasonable. Because it happens all the time, even in some wholesale markets or in the street, the rent of the best place is the most expensive, and they are the easiest for customers to find. Not all customers buy the products directly from factories. Most of them want to find someone who can service well, help them handle all the issues, and communicate smoothly to finish all the procurement. Such as retail giant Wal-Mart，Nike, Adidas, they don't purchase directly from the factory, they also purchase through trading companies, and the order volume is huge. The customers who come from developing countries are very sensitive about the price, they always want to get a relatively lower price. Because profit is not high. This kind of customers need to find factories, they don't want to deal with any trading company.

I want to share my own ideas as a factory. Our factory is a textile industry and produces all kinds of kids underwears, in China.
First, some online platforms like as 1688, those platforms charge expensive annual fee. In addition, manufactories have to buy advertising service, otherwise, your product will be never shown in the top 10 when customers search keyword of products.
We hope can strike a balance between trading companies and my own factory. However, they always take profits as the first priority. They would like to choose the one which can offer cheaper price even though the quality is not good, because they can increase the middle price difference.
As the author says, it’s hard to find real suppliers in China. In China, it’s also hard to find real foreign customers.

I have been surfing on-line more than three hours as oflate, yet I never found any fascinating article like yours.It is pretty price sufficient for me. Personally,if all webmasters and bloggers made just right content as you did, the internet can be a lot more useful than ever before.

I want to answer this question as a factory. Our factory is of a wide range of woodworking , metal products, miscellaneous hardware and all kinds of packaging, in China. We have regular business cooperation with foreign traders, but we still want to be able to find foreign customers directly.
1,As the Author say many there is no one can speak English in the factory. This factory is my family’s business, My uncle didn’t think I would go back to my factory until I had enough experience working in a big company. As I see many college students are reluctant to work in factories after graduation. Therefore, there are no English speakers in the factory.
2. “Trading company suppliers on 1688.com are even more than factories “,that’s true. Cooperate with trading company, means I don’t need a special person to look for foreign customers, and foreign exchange risk, international shipping risk right. But profits are relatively low. USD 4,000 annually as the member fee for 1688.com is expensive and ineffective.
3. It takes an annual fee to publish information on some foreign professional platforms. The cost table is usually higher, and the effect is unknown. While big companies look for factories on these advertising platforms, the terms of their cooperation are often harsh. Moreover, they do not want to find factories that cooperate for a long time. They only want to find cheap suppliers for the non-important parts of products.
So this is hard to find Real foreign customers in China.
