Navigating international B2B procurement for automotive parts can be complex. If you are looking to secure factory direct gas struts and lift supports, understanding the logistics, minimum order policies, and pricing structures will give you a significant competitive edge.
Industry Standard MOQ vs. Yueli's Flexible Policy
A common pain point for mid-sized distributors is the rigid Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) demanded by many factories, often exceeding 500 units per specific car model. We understand that auto parts distributors need to carry a wide range of SKUs. Our flexible policy allows a bulk order lift supports MOQ as low as 50 units per SKU, meaning you can easily mix hundreds of different OEM numbers into a single 20ft container.
Understanding Trade Terms: FOB vs. CIF
When requesting quotes for China auto parts sourcing, the pricing term dramatically affects your final cost. We primarily offer FOB (Free on Board) Guangzhou/Shenzhen, which gives you the freedom to use your preferred freight forwarder once the goods are loaded on the vessel. If you lack a logistics partner, we also provide CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) quotes, handling the shipping all the way to your destination port.
The Timeline: From Sample to Mass Production
Reliable forecasting is key to maintaining your inventory. Once a sample is approved, our standard mass production time is 15-25 days. Factoring in roughly 20-30 days for ocean freight (depending on your location in Europe or the Americas), you can confidently plan a 60-day turnaround from Purchase Order (PO) to warehouse arrival.
