China sourcing and imports for businesses

You choose the product. We manage the China import.

Already have an Alibaba quote? Send it to us and we will see whether a better overall purchasing option is available. Still looking for a manufacturer? We can help with sourcing, samples, quality checks, shipping and customs. Our standard service is to buy and import the goods, then sell them to your company in Slovenia. Delivery outside Slovenia is subject to an individual agreement.

Have an Alibaba quote—or just an idea?

No customs expertise required. Tell us what you want to buy and approximately how many units you need.

01

“I already have a supplier or Alibaba quote.”

Send the link, quote and quantity. We compare manufacturers and item-plus-freight pricing on equivalent terms.

Review my quote ↗
02

“I know the product, but not the manufacturer.”

Send a photo, similar product or short specification. We look for suitable producers and discuss samples and next steps.

Describe your product ↗
Clear pricing, no blanket promises

Approve product and freight prices before ordering.

We compare quotes on the same terms. You approve the product price and agreed freight before committing. Import duties and customs-clearance costs are estimated separately and, in the full-service model, passed on at actual cost. Inspections or additional procedures can change the amount. We cannot guarantee a lower total price for every product.

Choose the arrangement that fits your business

Two ways to source. You decide how involved to be.

Most companies choose a full-service purchase from OnlySales. If you prefer to buy directly from the Chinese supplier, we can agree a separate support package.

By arrangement

You buy direct. We provide agreed support.

Keep direct control of the supplier relationship and engage our team for the tasks you need.

  • You pay the Chinese supplier directly.
  • Our support fee is agreed separately in advance.
  • Freight and customs can be arranged by us or your chosen provider.

Before you commit to a larger order

Check the product—not just the catalogue photo.

We help verify specifications, suitable samples, checks and the documentation required for the specific product category on the EU market.

01

Video or physical sample

Review a sample on video; a physical sample can be arranged by air at the buyer's expense.

02

Quality inspection

We organise the inspection scope agreed for the product and order size.

03

EU product compliance

We assess documentation needs by category. A certificate alone does not guarantee lawful EU market placement.

Freight to match the shipment

Full container, shared container or air freight.

There is no universal minimum order value. We first assess whether the quantity and transport make commercial sense.

01 / FCL

Full container (FCL)

20-foot or 40-foot containers for larger volumes.

02 / LCL

Shared container (LCL)

Sea freight for shipments that do not fill an entire container.

03 / AIR

Air freight

For urgent or compact shipments when the speed justifies the cost.

For companies only. We do not import prohibited goods or products that fail applicable EU requirements.

Products and sectors

What could we source for your business?

We start with your actual item, order size and EU compliance requirements. These are examples from our work—not a promise that every product is suitable for import.

Client story · LagunaMed

From furnishing a waiting room to delivering a complete interior in Slovenia.

For LagunaMed, we helped select and source furniture, interior furnishings and decorative items for the waiting room and adjoining areas. Within the agreed scope, we managed quotations, freight arrangements, customs clearance and delivery in Slovenia.

“When furnishing our new medical practice, we turned to OnlySales. The team secured competitive quotations for our waiting-room furniture and interior items remarkably quickly, and handled transport, customs clearance and delivery to our address from start to finish.”

CLIENT STORY · TASTY DOSE

Reliable, ongoing supply for leading brands

From expensive purchases of generic products within the EU to a dependable China-based supply chain for fully branded products.

For the established Slovenian brand Tasty Dose, OnlySales built an end-to-end supply chain in China, enabling fully customised, branded products at lower purchase prices than the unbranded items the client had previously bought in the EU.

What began as individual orders grew, through a successful long-term partnership, into weekly arrivals and collections of full containers in Ljubljana. OnlySales also secured the required certificates, managed the Coffee 2.0 → Tasty Dose rebranding project and oversaw both sea and air imports.

Frequently asked questions

The answers that matter before you import.

No unnecessary jargon, no misleading promises.

Can I send only an Alibaba link?

Yes. Add an approximate quantity and your requirements. We will ask if anything else is needed.

Will you beat my Alibaba price?

That is our shared goal, but not a guarantee. We compare manufacturer offers, quantities and freight on equal terms. You approve product and freight prices before any obligation or payment.

Does the quote include all customs and taxes?

No. Product and freight prices are agreed in advance. Duties and customs-clearance charges are estimated separately and passed on at actual cost in the full-service model. Inspections can increase these costs. VAT and importer obligations depend on the specific transaction.

Do I have to arrange shipping and customs myself?

Not with full service: we coordinate them. With direct purchasing we agree in advance who is responsible for each task.

What if I have not chosen a product yet?

Send a photo, sketch, link to a comparable product or description. We will help narrow the specifications and sourcing options.

Is there a minimum order quantity?

We set no universal minimum. Smaller shipments can go as LCL or air freight, but the total freight cost may make small orders uneconomical.

Can I inspect a sample first?

Yes. We can arrange a video review or a physical sample sent by air at your expense, and agree the appropriate quality checks.

Can you import anything for any customer?

No. We work with businesses and only with goods that can meet the relevant EU requirements. Compliance is assessed for each product category and importer role.
