So, importing tiles from China is very easy.
One, you need to find your manufacturer where they source the tiles.
And in China, there's a city mainly for tiles.
They only manufacture tiles.
So, sourcing from that city means
that you get it at a very affordable price.
Aside the price, it will be cheaper and also you have
so many varieties as well in that same city.
the next thing after finding supplier
and then you've gotten the tiles you need and everything
okay you need to know the types
of tiles you need we have two main types of tiles we have the
porcelain and we have the ceramic porcelain is a little bit heavier
and stronger than ceramic
and porcelain is mainly used in waterlogged areas
so for example your washroom kitchen on the floor
you can't choose ceramic for that you have to choose porcelain
because it is a little bit
resistant to absorbing water as compared to ceramic
so after knowing this you need to also
check and see whether the manufacturer
is really producing good tiles that's all now after sourcing
the tiles you've gotten the tiles you want
the design you want the sizes and everything even
before you source to you need to know the exact details
of the kind of tiles you need because
well every country has got the way they sell
their tiles for example in Ghana 60 by 60 they package
them about 5 5 or 10 10 in a box here might
be different they are the manufacturing factory
so you need to know the square meters you need
for your hall for your bathroom for your kitchen
for the wall for the porch for any area you can think
of your home for stairs and all those things after
knowing that send to the supplier
the supplier will send you several pictures of the designs
they have and their prices now let's say you have
sourced everything already the next thing is
shipping from china to your country
these are heavy products we turn them as special products
they are very heavy how do you ship them first you need
to make wooden packages for them and that is
what we are doing today that is exactly what we are doing today
so you can see you can see so this
is the wooden package that we are making
so you can see here already grouped so under is wood
it's wood then we'll make the wooden package very
well after making wooden package then we can think
of shipping now if you are buying tiles i'm sure
your supplier might tell you after getting the
dimension you need for your home
or your apartment you need to add at least extra five square meters
why because adding that square meters will help you avoid shortage
of tiles because some might
break some during the tiling some they will cut them
and to not be enough so that is why you need
to buy extra square meters as well now after making the wooden package
which i'll be showing you
today so let me show you
the different kind of tiles here
you can see see guys right so they
are packaged in a box
so let me show you this this we
have already packaged them
then we use this to
tie them to tie them
to ensure that oh like
this so i make sure
i'm here during
a wooden package
we have had several instances where people buy
a product the supplier will show okay this is it
then later it will arrive in their country only
to know it they kept something very different so
that is why as a registered trading company we always want
to ensure the good thing is done
we are your eyes in China
so that is why i'm here to supervise this packaging once everything is
done right away to be delivered to my warehouse so we'll know that the
supplier has delivered exactly as we want
so you can see
