You can search online directly or by attending trade shows such as Canton Fair.When looking for a supplier,be sure to check their reviews and ask for references froem other buyers.You should also inquire about their production capacity and whether they have experience exporting to your country.

EXW – Ex-Works or Ex-Warehouse
EXW (Ex Works) means that the seller delivers when it places the goods at the disposal of the buyer at the seller's premises or at another named place (i.e., works, factory, warehouse, etc.). The seller does not need to load goods or clear them for export.
FOB – Free on Board
FOB stands for [free on board" or [freight on board" and is a designation that is used to indicate when liability and ownership of goods is transferred from a seller to a buyer. Free on Board: Free on board indicates whether the seller or the buyer is liable for goods that are damaged or destroyed during shipping.
CIF – Cost, Insurance, and Freight
The terms specify the division of responsibility between the shipper/supplier and the consignee/buyer in the process of shipping the cargo from one destination to another.It which represents the charges paid by a seller to cover the costs, insurance, and freight of a buyer's order while the cargo is in transit. Cost, insurance, and freight only applies to goods transported via a waterway, sea, or ocean.
FOB and CIF are the most common ones used for importing goods from China.
