I want to open a physical store for women's clothing, how do I find the source of goods?

Some owners who want to open women's clothing stores are thinking about a question. In addition to the common clothing wholesale markets where women's clothing can be purchased, where else can they purchase goods? In fact, the wholesale market is not the only choice for purchasing women's clothing. There are many purchasing channels that are also desirable. So what are the channels for purchasing women’s clothing? Today, the editor of Women's Clothing Network will share the common purchasing channels for women's clothing in 2020 for your reference.

1. Purchase from the clothing wholesale market

This is the most common purchase channel. If your store is engaged in clothing and has a clothing purchase list, then you can go to some large clothing stores around you. Purchasing in the wholesale market requires strong bargaining power and strives to keep the wholesale price to the lowest. The larger the clothing wholesale market, the more categories there are to choose from and the cheaper the prices.

2. Manufacturer purchase

This is a very competitive purchase channel. Purchasing from manufacturers is also a common channel. If you go to the manufacturer to purchase goods, you can get a lower purchase price, but the purchase amount is usually relatively high, which increases business risks. If you open a physical clothing store or have multiple stores, you can consider it. It is best to have friends or work directly in the manufacturer, so that there will be no problems in purchasing goods and the risk can be minimized.

3. Foreign trade products or OEM products

At present, many factories have some surplus products to deal with outside of foreign trade orders or OEM production for some well-known brands. The prices are usually very low. Usually At 20-40% off the normal price, this is a good purchase channel. But this kind of information is not available everywhere, and it requires a very extensive network of contacts.

4. Products with overstocked inventory or clearance processing

This is also a very good purchase channel. Because of the rush to deal with it, the price of such goods is usually extremely low. If you have enough bargaining power, you can buy it at an extremely low price. However, if you switch to online sales, take advantage of online sales and take advantage of region or time and space. The price difference is enough to make enough profit from Taobao clothing purchases. Therefore, you should go to the market frequently and pay close attention to market changes.

5. Find special purchasing channels

For example, if you have relatives or friends in Hong Kong or abroad who start a clothing chain store, you can ask them to help you enter some domestic markets. Products that cannot be seen, or some products with lower prices. If you are in a place like Shenzhen and Zhuhai, you can even apply for a pass and go out to Hong Kong and Macau to purchase goods by yourself. However, in recent years, Hong Kong and Macao have stricter controls on the import and export of goods, so purchases are unlikely to be possible.

6. Online purchasing

With the popularity of online shopping, many people now buy products online, and the same goes for clothing purchasing. There are some specialized clothing purchasing websites, WeChat public accounts, etc. You can try it, but you need to pay attention to know whether the source of goods online is genuine or fake to avoid being cheated.

The above are the common purchase channels for women's clothing in 2020 shared by the editor of Women's Clothing Network. I hope it will be helpful to all the bosses.
