How To Choose Ceiling Fan Manufacturer From China?
 
If you are oversea sourcing buyer in ceiling fan, and first time to connect suppliers in China, perhaps you would get dozens of hundreds of manufacturers when you search in internet.
It seems that each supplier can make everything perfect--high quality, OEM, delivery in time. But you will find that it is not as they said, maybe after you do some business. 

Step 1: Confirm they are manufactuers or trading company
 
If they are a manufacturers , they can make production, quality control & delivery under control directly.
 
How to judge?
Check if they have real workshop pictures or videos.
Ask them such questions: Where is your facotry? how many staffs? How long did you engage in ceiling fans?
Even,you can request the sales rep. show you around the workshop in the wechat video.

Step 2: Comfirm the prodcut series is you want or not 
Every factory has their own strong and steady production series. Some are in standard ceiling fans, some are in fans with light, some are in ones with remote, some are in outdoor ones.
You must know clearly:
what is their main promoting item? Is it popular in your market?
Can they change colour , package and logo as your request?
How many is MOQ? 500pcs? 2000pcs?
If they recommend"This is our cheapest ceiling fan"but it doesn't match your market, you must be careful.

Step 3: Must ask "motor"
The motor is the most important part of a ceiling fan. If motor not good, even the blades looks beautiful no use.
Suggest you ask at least these three questions:
Is the motor copper wire or aluminum wire?
Have they done temperature rise test? Can you see the report?
How long is the motor warranty?
Copper wire motor cost higher, but longer life and more stable. Aluminum wire motor cheaper, but easy get hot and power drop fast after long time running.
If you are selling in mid to high end market, try not to make concession on this.
 
Step 4: Not ask price, ASK "ALL IN ONE"
Many buyers focus on FOB price, then it cause many extra fees afterwards.So you must make all the things clearly:
packaging: standard exporting carton?  or wooden or parallet?
Inspection:100% or random inspection before shipment 
Certificates:CE,ETL, UL, SAA? Who charge the fee?
 
Step 5: Small trial order
Small order can help you to test:
Goods delivery  in time or not?
Samples are same as the mass production or not?
Manufacturer solve the problems positively or just look for excuses?
This is good method to test a factory's level.
 
Step 6: The possibilities of collaborations
Many buyse just focus on "this order price can be cheaper?" but smart buyes would consider that if the factory can cowork for long time?
You can ask your some questions:
if they do not pay attention to you because your order is small?
the factory production capacity can support your orders in the future?
When you choose supplier,  choose the one --"willing to make your busiess better and bigger" instead of  "this is the cheapest"
