Default How to buy live plants easier ?

Is it so complicated to handle an order every time?
Live plant is a special commodity; it has life, not like others. Meanwhile, culture differences have resulted in national condition different between east and west, this is also a big problem for lots of buyers worldwide.
Please kindly see as follows:

1, Use the search engines. For example, go to Google homepage, use a key word, such as “living palnts supplier”, then it will display thousands of information matched. What you see is what you get. Beside, you can use other famous B2B websites to find a supplier, especially the famous B2B website in the country of origin.

2, Offer the detailed specification you required. Many buyers who always sent an email to ask for a price list, to be honestly, it is a big work for a supplier and it impossible to finish. In my opinion, you can advise them the detailed specification you required at the beginning, I bet you would receive more replies.

3, Make enough time for supplier to apply for certificates. Due to the special nation condition in some country, it is not easy to apply for the certificates. Here I suggest that you can inform the supplier as soon as you have confirmed an order, make sure it has enough time to apply for relevant certificates. Especially, please don’t forget the additional declaration required by inspection department on your party too.

4, Book a shipping space. Usually the supplier can get a competitive price on freight from its forwarder, lower than the appointed one on your party. Besides, it can cooperate better with its own agent.

5, Documents required by your customs. When the cargos are on the way to destination, you had better to inform the supplier the documents required by customs of your country, because different countries have their own requirements.

In a word, it would save lots of costing and more convenient if you cooperate with a reliable supplier . Hope people who want to trading live plants would do business smoothly, reach a plateau finally.
