Alibaba.com for Manufacturers
Go digital with B2B e-commerce
For many manufacturers, selling to intermediaries is everyday reality. That means that, in order to export to multiple countries, they need intermediaries in each of those countries.
In terms of efficiency there is sill a lot to gain, especialy in this day and age of digitalized commerce. For commodities, the traditional sales channels of intermediaries are a time-tested solution.
But what if there is a place that houses intermediaries from all over the world, in one platform? Alibaba.com hosts intermediaries from countries all around the world, including those in which you are not currently active. In other words, a great addition to what you already do!
For highly customisable products, it’s an entirely different story. Buyers want your product to fit their exact specifications. Intermediaries might not be able to be of value here. The worldwide demand for these customisable products is enormous, and Alibaba.com is the one place where this demand is connected to suppliers worldwide. For companies that sell customisable products in bulk, not being on Alibaba.com might not be the best bet.
Unlike working with different partners in different countries, a membership on Alibaba.com opens up your company to the world, at minimal invest in both time and resources. On this easy-to-use platform, you are ready to start selling directly.
