Only 3 pieces of tips below. Not much. But enough for a green hand to start the purchasing job and talk with suppliers like an expert.

Mainly Guangdong, Zhejiang, and Qingdao.

85% printing & packaging suppliers in China are located in the mentioned regions and a better ratio of quality and price can be achieved.

• What is the MOQ per size per design?
• Do you have small MOQ support, for example, digital printing solutions?
• Is your lining material food-grade safe?
• Does your quote include accessories like a resealable zip lock, and easy tears?
• What will be the material’s structure

Try getting shipping costs from the suppliers directly instead of using your own express account.

Experienced international suppliers have very wide resources of shipping lines to most countries and regions in the world.

Normally a huge cost can be saved, especially when you order a lot and not in a hurry to get the bags.

If you happen to need other packaging accessories or equipment, ask the supplier.

For example, heat sealers, spout bag filling machine, automatic powder filling machine, etc.
