Dear importers and exporters and intermediaries,
You are respectable because you are still running on the front lines during the epidemic. You are the key to the success of this war because you are the people who carry the burden of procurement.
You are the channels for the smooth flow of needed supplies.
Everyone got together because of the epidemic. And because of the epidemic, many rules have changed.
Buyers or their agents are now facing an overwhelming amount of requests and orders. To make the matter worst, they also meet many suppliers who still have the "Cha-Bu-Duo" spirit.
The chaos of the domestic procurement market finally burned into the export market.
Like I wrote in
About CE certification of medical device products
As mentioned in the above article, genuine CE certification of medical devices is in chaos mode. This is the epitome of the entire medical emergency supplies market. "True, False, and Fake CE certification" is the name of the game.
The current status quo is:
Many front-line exporters and fully qualified manufacturers are currently producing domestic orders. For example, the owner of a front-line factory who is specializing in exporting masks told me this:
"We still have 200 million masks piled up yet to finish just for the domestic market."
The owner of this factory also said this:
"The current price of the material is already double compare to when the contract was signed. The material costs sixfold compare to the price before the epidemic."
What makes things interesting is this:
The current export orders are demanding the price to reduce to the level even lower before the outbreak.
What's going on?
And this is not a single case. Almost all of the first-line factories have been harassed by similar strong "price reductions." This has led to the "quotation fatigue" of the manufacturers who can fulfill the orders. They all have a great negative sentiment towards the middle-men.
Therefore, purchasers, please do your "homework" and take up the professional spirit. Do not use the "Cha-Bu-Duo" spirit.
If you want to be in this business. Please, first understand what CE certification of the medical device is. Then talk with the manufacturers or factories.
Everyone ’s time is precious.
Please also read carefully
About CE certification of medical device products
As for the intermediaries who have no clues about what you are doing, please leave the factories alone. Please do your homework, check the price range of the product you want before the epidemic. Then open your mouth.
The only reason everyone resumed work during the epidemic is for all the people we love.
You, the "lion's mouth," who wants to swallow the profit yourself.
Seriously, you will be blacklisted by the factory in no time.
If you are factories who have production capacity but not fully qualified. Please do not worry. Due to the epidemic situation, the buyers may lower their requirements standards.
In order to smooth the entire process, please Tell The Truth when you meet potential buyers.
If you are a temporary factory, do not say you are an old factory. If you only have CE test reports for electrical appliances, do not say that you have CE certification. At the end, when the contract signs, export begins. If it is all fake when the products arrive at the destination, no participants in the practice can be guilt-free. If you do not understand something, it is ok to tell the buyers, what the situation you are in.
Moreover, a certain proportion of CE certification funds from purchasers has now appeared. Not to mention that our team ’s cooperation with the CE certification agency SGS. They now offer a “fast lane” to help factories to get EN13485 + CE in one month.
Real buyers are increasing every day. The demands are increasing.
Everyone involved in this trade, please tell the truth and leave some profits to one another.
No one can offer to do this job for free.
As an old saying in China,
"People will do business even it may cost his life,
but nobody touches any business which leads to a loss."
And the cost of counterfeiting is really high and we are talking about life and death here.
At present, it has reached such a level that the entire human society is bearing the consequences.
Therefore, please also throw away the "Cha-Bu-Duo" spirit.
Take up your professionalism.
Let's make the entire distribution channel smoother. So that everyone can make a decent living.
It is more than enough to go around.
Come on, everybody! We can do it!
Team @ Eagle Daddy
