Prepare your supplier meetings.

Provide the product specification, reference samples or drawings, target quantities, packaging, intended market and required ready date. Identify any testing, labelling or certification questions for the relevant specialist to review before comparing supplier offers.

Record the business identity and establish whether you are dealing with a manufacturer or trading company. Decide which documents, production capabilities and references need checking. A factory audit and a product inspection cover different questions; agree their scope separately.

An approved sample records a reference for agreed product features. Confirm the production specification, packaging, inspection criteria and how changes are approved in writing. Sample approval alone does not verify every unit in a later production batch.

Shortlist exhibitors and prepare product questions, quantities and sample requirements. Keep a meeting record with supplier details, quotations and the next action. Check current registration, invitations, badges and attendance arrangements on the official Canton Fair buyer platform.

Share each supplier location, cargo ready date, package count, packed measurements and destination. Review warehouse receiving, storage, labelling and consolidation before agreeing the shipping plan. Combining orders does not automatically reduce the total cost or meet every delivery deadline.
