If you’re currently sourcing from China, you’ve undoubtedly experienced increased issues with shipping, logistics, and product sourcing.
Events over the past few years have disillusioned many brand owners from China sourcing. Although the cost of goods and speed of manufacturing are stellar, strict virus control, travel restrictions, and more have convinced many sellers that it’s time to look elsewhere for the Next Unicorn Product.
Enter Mexico.
US-based brands in particular will find many benefits from Latin America (LATAM) sourcing:
- Lower shipping time and logistics-related costs
- Shorter travel times for managers who need to visit factories – and less adjustment to time zone differences, too
- The devalued Mexican peso compared to the US dollar
Additionally, Chinese labor has continued to rise in cost as the years have gone by. Perhaps it’s time to explore relationships with a neighbor on our side of the world.
Some of the products that Mexico is known for include:
- Textiles and apparel
- Home appliances
- Household products, like brooms, mops, brushes, etc.
- Some electronics
- Auto parts (interestingly, this is possibly Mexico’s biggest export product to the United States)
- Ceramics and tiles
- Plastics
- Certain hardware
- Rubber
Of course, we don’t mean to abandon relationships with your Chinese supplier(s) if that’s your choice. Also, it’s worth taking a look at India, Vietnam, and of course the USA, as a viable source for products. Yet, on that note, it’s a good idea to strike while the iron is hot – LATAM is looking very promising while sourcing from Mexico is still a hot new idea.
You have all the chances in the world to:
- Find your supplier
- Learn the best practices in sourcing from LATAM – and the right product, at that
- Network with the best in the biz through an intimate event where you can really cultivate a relationship with some of Amazon’s biggest thought leaders
