Why importers use 1688 with an agent
1688 unlocks suppliers and prices that do not show up on English-only portals. The hard part is execution: payment trails, Chinese domestic freight, multi-seller packing, export, and India clearance. That is the Cargozant job.

Cost tips specific to multi-seller carts

- Measure cartons; volumetric surprises are the #1 โwhy is air so expensive?โ answer.
- Watch slab tips on the calculator โ adding filler weight can lower total freight.
- Flag batteries, branded goods, and restricted categories early.
