China glow stick

It is unnecessary to talk a lot about China economy. You can hear about it every day in the news. China produces everything. Do China factories produce glow sticks? The answer is clear. Of course yes.

Let us browse the net and look at some China companies producing glow sticks and other glow products. All needed information can be found from their sites in the net.

First about prices. For glow sticks they are very competitive. For example one company offers wholesale price for glow sticks - USD 0.16 for quantity not less than 10 000pc. You can easily contact any company (as I did to check) for details and receive quick answer.

China companies offer to get samples of their glow sticks free when total value is under USD 5.00 and customer has FedEx or DHL account. For samples with value more than USD 5.00 they ask to pay for them and cover courier freight in advance. Some companies have warehouses in USA, Canada, Australia and UK and ask you to contact them for samples.

Almost all companies offer to print your logos on their glow products. It costs something like USD 0.01/pc for whole amount of USD 5000. For logo printing they ask to send them a logo example in JPEG or TIFF format.

As per payments terms they are a bit strange for online business. You are offered 3 options:

- Western Union for amount less than USD 1000

- Wire transfer for amount more than USD 1000

- L/C (letter of credit) for amount of USD 15000

China companies not accept credit cards due to rules of Bank of China.

Transportation described in details. It includes sea, air and track (for domestic delivery) transportation. Some companies can ship glow products from their warehouses abroad as was mentioned above.

There are no affiliate programs from China companies. You can become a distributor on following terms.

“If you could order our products for USD5000-USD10000 per month, you could be one of our distributor in your city or area; if you could order our products for USD 10000-USD30000 per month, you could be our sole distributor in your country. The exact amount depends on the area/country size.”

China glow sticks have different “shelf life” parameters. Some companies offer 1-2 years, some offer 2-4 years. Glow life has also range from 4-12 hours to 24 hours depending from producer and type of glow stick.

One offer of powder glow sticks attracts my attention:

1. The light could last for longer time, more than 30 hours

2. More luminance than traditional liquid glow sticks.

3. No weak. The traditional liquid light sticks glow weak by weak since it start-up. But the powder glow sticks will not. Even the 10th hours since it start-up, the powder glowsticks still offer same luminance as the first hour.

China companies’ representatives readily discuss details of the order such as connectors of glow bracelets and necklaces and so on.

Usual safety standards are also supported by China factories.

In summary one san say in glow stick industry China goes very confidently as in other economical spheres if not to take in to account strange payment terms.
