How to Import from China with a Small Budget

You do not need a big investment to start importing. With a small budget and a careful plan, you can test products, learn what sells and grow from your profits.
Why our model suits a small budget
With BDChinaMart you pay only 40% of the product price when you order and the rest on delivery. Shipping by weight is also paid on delivery. That means less money tied up while the goods travel. See 40% advance payment explained.
Five rules for a small budget
- Start with samples: one or two pieces of several products.
- Choose light items: rings like Smooth Groove Couple Ring, socks like Antibacterial Sports Socks for Men or pouches like Mini Crossbody Phone Pouch Bag.
- Avoid fragile or sized products at first.
- Sell before you scale: take pre-orders using your sample photos.
- Reinvest profit into the products that sold.
A simple plan for your first month
- Week 1: choose 5 products from our shop or request links.
- Week 2–3: receive samples, photograph them, post them.
- Week 4: count interest and orders; reorder the best 1–2 products.
Keep costs visible
Write down product cost, shipping, delivery and packaging for every item. Our pricing guide shows a simple method.
Everyday products sell too
Home items like Oil-Absorbing Hanging Kitchen Paper Towel are cheap to test and easy to explain in a short video.
Use pre-orders
With good photos of your samples, you can take orders before buying stock. Collect a small advance from your customers, then place one combined order with us. This way your money is only used for products that are already sold, which is the safest way to grow when capital is limited.
