Toy and baby-product sourcing enquiries

Start with the product’s intended user, destination and safety requirements. A low unit price is only one part of an order decision.

DISCUSS YOUR REQUIREMENTS

Define the products in your enquiry

  • Toys: describe the age range, play function, materials, moving parts and whether batteries are included.
  • Plush products: define dimensions, fabric, filling, seams, labels and sample expectations.
  • Baby products: identify the exact intended use and the product-specific requirements before supplier selection.

Keep evidence tied to the exact product

A supplier’s certificate or another model’s report does not establish that your exact product meets destination requirements. Ask which product, materials, factory and test scope a document covers. Specialist testing and regulatory review should be agreed separately from a visual inspection.

  • Send drawings or reference photos and a clear intended-use description. Do not select an age label solely to avoid testing.
  • Agree which product and packaging features the approved sample must demonstrate. Record any changes before production.
  • Ask what testing, labelling and documentation your destination and sales channel require. Confirm who arranges and pays for them.

Arrange the next step

Start with product sourcing to discuss supplier options. Use private label requirements for logo or packaging changes. Agree inspection scope separately, then prepare carton and destination details for shipping.

Send product references, quantities per SKU, destination, required services and target dates. Confirm availability, minimums, charges and responsibilities in the written quote.
