Factory Direct vs Trader: Comparison

Factory Direct Trading Co.
Unit cost Lowest Higher (margin added)
Lead time Direct, transparent Buffered
QC control Direct oversight Indirect
Assortment Single factory limit Multi-factory

FOB Tianjin Logistics Advantage

Sourcing near Tianjin port shortens inland trucking and simplifies container consolidation — a real landed-cost edge for volume buyers.

On-Site QC Value

An on-site QC team catches defects before they ship, protecting your return rate and brand. This is where factory-direct with oversight wins.
