Price Comparison

Foshan furniture prices and the cost of importing

What to add on top

The factory price is not the landed price. Budget for sea freight, insurance, import duty and local tax, unloading and inland delivery. Together these usually add a meaningful percentage to the factory cost, and the smaller your order, the heavier that share becomes.

Why we do not publish freight rates

Container rates move constantly with the shipping market and the season. A 40 foot container holds roughly 65 to 76 cubic metres of goods. We quote freight fresh at the time you order rather than print a figure that will be wrong next month.

Duty and tax are your country’s call

Import duty and VAT or GST depend on the HS code of each product and on your destination country. Your customs broker confirms the exact rate. We prepare the documentation and the correct classification so nothing is held up at the border.

When importing does not pay

Buying furniture from China works best at container quantities, because shipping and customs cost close to the same whether a container is full or half empty. If your volume is too small to justify it, we will tell you plainly instead of taking the order.

After You Choose

Before your container leaves China

Your sofa may come from one shop, your tiles from another and your kitchen from a factory. We bring those orders together and keep working after you return home.

We check what you ordered

We compare the goods with the sizes, materials, colours and finishes you approved. You receive photos and inspection reports before shipping.

We collect and check the packing

We bring your purchases to the warehouse, check the quantities and packing, and arrange container loading. Furniture, tiles and other materials need to be packed for the journey.

Shipping Documents & Delivery Arrangements

We prepare shipping documents and coordinate with the freight forwarder and destination agent. Before shipment, we confirm whether your quote covers delivery to a port or your address, and explain which customs, tax and local delivery costs are separate.

Our team stays in touch throughout your order, including after you return home.

FAQ

Common questions

A few practical details before you get started. Contact us if you have another question.

Start with a product list, quantities, measured drawings, preferred finishes, budget and delivery destination. For fitted items such as cabinets, doors and windows, ask your designer or installer to confirm dimensions and installation requirements before you approve production. Keep approved samples and drawings with each supplier quotation. Our building materials buying guide explains how to organise your showroom visits.

Not always. A full container (FCL) is reserved for your shipment; shared-container shipping (LCL) uses part of a container. Furniture, tiles and cabinets from different suppliers can be assessed for a combined shipment. We compare suitable options once packing sizes, weight, volume and destination are known. The quote specifies whether delivery ends at the port or your address, and which destination charges are included.

Yes. Our visit service includes airport pickup, transport along the agreed route and an English-speaking furniture specialist. We can suggest hotels near the markets. Confirm your arrival airport, dates, itinerary and what is included in your quote before booking. Discover the Tour.

Our team follows up with suppliers, checks the goods against your approved specifications and coordinates collection, packing and shipment. We share inspection reports before shipping and help resolve order issues with the suppliers. Read about consolidation and shipping.

Foshan specialises in furniture, ceramics and tiles, lighting, aluminum products, sanitary ware, stainless steel, doors and windows, kitchen equipment and building materials. Send us your list and we can suggest which shops and factories to visit.

Simple and transparent. You pay the factory directly, and pay us an agreed service fee of 5% to 10% of the order value, fixed in writing before we start. Smaller and first orders sit at the higher end, larger and repeat orders move toward 5%. No hidden markups on your product cost.

A 0% buyer commission does not necessarily mean there is no cost elsewhere. An agent may receive a supplier-paid commission, earn a resale margin or charge for other services. This is not automatically a scam; ask who pays the agent, whether supplier rebates or markups apply, and compare the complete written quote. Our service fee is agreed in writing before we start, and we do not receive factory commissions.

Minimum quantities depend on the supplier and the product, especially for custom furniture. Send us your list so we can confirm what each factory will accept and compare the total cost of buying and shipping. Orders from different suppliers can be collected together; a supplier’s minimum order and the size of your shipment are separate questions.

Yes. We organise guided factory tours in Foshan tailored to your product interests. Our team accompanies you, provides professional translation and helps you evaluate facilities effectively. Given Foshan’s concentrated layout, multiple factories can typically be visited in a single day.

Initial supplier identification takes 3 to 5 business days. Sample production typically requires 7 to 15 days. Bulk production ranges from 15 to 45 days depending on complexity and quantity. Sea freight to most destinations adds 15 to 40 days. We provide realistic timelines at the outset of every project.

We arrange sea freight (FCL and LCL), air freight, rail freight to Europe and express courier for samples and small consignments. Our logistics team handles all export documentation, customs declarations and coordination with your freight forwarder or destination agent.

It can be, but compare the total delivered cost for the same specification. Include product prices, our service fee, packing, freight and destination charges. Small orders can be less economical because fixed handling costs are spread across fewer items. Ask for a project quote before deciding whether importing offers better value.

Both. We support homeowners furnishing a house or villa, as well as hotel owners, developers and business buyers. Purchases from different suppliers can be brought together, with the shipping plan based on your order volume and destination. See our whole-house buying guide or hotel furniture guide for the details to prepare.

Foshan and nearby areas have furniture showrooms, factories and material suppliers that can be visited on the same trip. We recommend locations based on the products you need.
