Write the tasks before comparing the fee
List the work you need: finding products, requesting quotations, organizing samples, checking packing, arranging inspection and coordinating shipment. Ask which tasks are included, which are charged separately and which remain with the buyer. An attractive fee is difficult to compare when the service scope is undefined.
Ask how product decisions are recorded
Review how a proposed partner connects a SKU to a sample, quotation and supplier version. Ask who records open questions and obtains approval for substitutions. A well-organized shortlist is more useful than an unsupported statement about access to thousands of factories.
Define inspection and release authority
Clarify whether the partner coordinates a third-party inspection, performs a specified check or only collects cartons. Identify who receives findings and who authorizes dispatch. Avoid assuming that a warehouse receiving record is a product-quality acceptance decision.
Plan for a reorder and a disagreement
Ask how previous approvals are retained and how a changed supplier or component is disclosed. Agree how shortages, damaged packs and claims are documented. The relationship should make responsibilities visible when the order becomes complicated, not only when the first product list is prepared.
