How to buy wholesale handbags

Handbags are massive 139 billion dollar industry that has been steadily growing 5% year over year and is expected to grow through 2020. The market growth is largely driven by increased adoption of online shopping. So if you're looking to sell handbags online, you've picked a good niche.

Here are some tips to consider when you're purchasing wholesale handbags for your store:

  • Targeting online buying audience
    Get handbags that will appeal to people age 18 - 40 as these people tend to be the biggest online spender. Your likelihood to succeed will increase tremendously when you can cater to their needs, more details below.
  • Know which handbags are selling
    The current top selling handbag categories are:
    1. Totes
    2. Shoulder Bags
    3. Purses and Wallets
    4. Satchels and Saddles
    These are handbags you can find women carrying on a daily basis. In addition, consider stocking some wholesale purses as well alongside those handbags as they are good products for upsell.
  • Understand the buying factors for handbags
    More people are considering non-branded handbags and their buying criteria includes quality, details and uniqueness of the handbags. So it would be a good idea to source for wholesale authentic designer handbags or designer purses. It would also mean higher cost, a way around that is to order these designer handbags in bulk.

Where to buy wholesale handbags

Once you've narrowed down the type of handbags you're looking to sell, you can look into these options to quickly find a wholesale distributor:

Google

Google can return you thousands of wholesale handbags distributors, both local and international, where can you can continue the search for specific handbags to sell. Try searches such as "wholesale handbags suppliers china", "wholesale handbags in usa" or the country of your choice to have a starting list of suppliers to do research on.

While this method is free, it leaves you to the wolves. You have to figure out who the real wholesalers are and try to avoid scams. It’s time-consuming and frustrating.

Local directories

Check your local directories, business listings, wholesale malls and newspaper ads for information about local furniture wholesalers. There's a good chance they're advertising in these places in order to clear stock fast

Again, this can be time-consuming as local directories are few and far between.

Finding trusted suppliers

You NEED a trustworthy supplier. Without one, your business can tank. Follow these steps with every supplier you look at:

Contact the supplier and verify their address

True wholesalers will proudly share their phone number and business address on their site. Call them and Google them to verify they’re real.

Check your supplier’s reputation and track record

A great supplier will last decades. Look to see that your supplier’s been in business at least 10 years. And call some of their customers if you can.

Purchase and inspect their products

Product samples are important! They let you check supplier quality and packing care. If the product sucks, you obviously don’t want to sell it.

Test their customer support

What happens when something goes wrong with the product and you need your supplier’s help? Don’t wait until this happens to find out. Call with questions early and often.
