Founder story

Why our quotes show their sources

From 2015 to 2020 I worked in software development. In 2020 I moved into sourcing and started buying from suppliers in Yiwu.

When a program fails, the cause is often an assumption nobody wrote down. China quotes break the same way. The unit price looks final until the carton size or the duty code turns out to be different.

So each number on our quotes has a source you can check. Anything we could not confirm yet is written down as an assumption, so you can see what might still change.

Our fee sits on its own line for the same reason. With the supplier price and our fee shown apart, both are easy to check.

Is Supplymo right for your order?

We work well with

  • Online sellers and brands who buy stock from China in bulk, including Amazon FBA sellers.
  • Retailers and wholesalers who want many small products from the Yiwu market in one shipment.
  • Buyers who already have a supplier and want someone in China to follow the order and check the goods.
  • Anyone who wants to see the supplier price and the landed cost before paying.

We are not the right fit for

  • Toys and baby products. We don't source them, even when the supplier has test reports.
  • Single-order dropshipping. We send stock in bulk to you, your warehouse or your fulfilment partner.
  • Buyers who only want a supplier's price and contact, with no checks.
  • Anyone who needs a guaranteed lowest price. We compare several suppliers and show you the numbers.

We publish what we learn

We study 1688 listings and sellers and publish the results with the underlying data. Some of this work has been cited by trade media.
