Your lash vendor should be a real factory, not a trader

In the beauty biz, picking a lash vendor – where you get your lash supplies matters big time. Here, we’re talking about a key choice – getting your stuff from a real factory or a middleman trader. This post breaks down why going straight to the factory is the smart move. We’ll keep it simple, focusing on how this choice ensures real products, better quality, and long-term success for lash brands and distributor in our always-changing industry.

What is the difference between a Factory Lash Vendor and a Lash Trading Company

A lash trading company doesn’t directly product any lashes. They buy lash from Lash factories, and sell you. In a more complex relationship, a trading company is a midle man between a lash brand/ lash supplies and a lash factory.

Why your lash vendor should be a real lash manufacture instead of a trader?

There are 3 main reasons:

Lower cost

Direct sourcing: The Lash Factory may have direct access to manufacturers or suppliers of lash materials, allowing them to purchase materials and making them at a lower cost than a trading company that acts as a middleman.
Lower overhead costs: The Lash Factory may have lower overhead costs than a trading company, as they may not have to pay for additional staff or office space to manage the trading process.
Specialization: The Lash Factory may specialize in lash products, allowing them to focus on producing and selling high-quality products at a lower cost than a trading company that deals with a wider range of products.

Better Quality Control

1 soure and many sourses: A trading company can buy lashes from many different lash manufacturers, making the inconsistency in quality. And normally, a trading company doesn’t have dedicated Quality Controller or Quality Assurant in each production site to manage the quality from the begining. They normally do the final inspection only. It might be too late for your order when it comes very closely to the delivery date like that to fix any quality problem.

• Direct oversight of production: A lash factory has direct control over the production process, which allows them to closely monitor and control the quality of the lashes being produced. They can ensure that the materials used are of high quality and that the manufacturing process is consistent and efficient.
• Quality control measures: A lash factory can implement strict quality control measures to ensure that each lash meets their standards. This can include testing the lashes for durability, thickness, and curl, as well as inspecting each lash individually to ensure that it meets the desired specifications.
• Customization options: A lash factory can offer more customization options than a trading company, as they have the ability to create unique lash styles and designs. This allows them to cater to the specific needs and preferences of their customers, and ensures that the lashes they produce are of the highest quality. For example, Sen Lash Factory in Vietam is providing lashes in various types of box like THIS LINK

More Trustworthy

Trading Company try to fake herself as a lash factory: Many trading company are trying to fake herself as a factory, to be attract lash brands/supplies easier. That making them tend to be not honest in many other points of cooperation.

Deep Technical Knowlege: A factory who directly produce the lashes will definitely have the technical knowledge and know-how on how to produce the high quality lash. By contrast, many trading company hire students – who doesn’t know anything about lashes to be their salers. And those salers play the role of QC at the same times. You can imaging how risky your order is now.

Capacity Control: Normally, a lash trading company doesn’t manage the production capacity directly. They can’t foresee any risk of order delay. A Trading company normally sign a contract with some lash factory, with a term of punishment for any delay. But in the real world, that terms doesn’t work effectively since the trading company can’t easily punish or change the lash vendor.

Why lash trading companies still alive?

Because of 2 reasons:

Lash factory is not good at sales and marketing, while trading company focus on it

It’s the real sittuation now on the market. Almost lash factory doesn’t master sales and marketing. It’s hard for a lash brands to find a real lash factory, and even harder to find a good lash factory.

By contrast, in a trading company, you may find dozen of sales man and marketers, making effort to reach more customers everyday.

Working directly with a lash factory has not been a must

Many Lash Brands and Supply Bussiness are not in a strong competition which can force them to find and build more bussiness advantage from there input.

Imagine that if the margin for a lash brand is only 1-5%, You’ll have a big demand of lower down your cost.

Imagine that your lash trading company can’t improve the lash quality after several orders, and the reason behind is that they can’t control the lash factory. Could you still be able to trust them and other trading company. What happen if the other trading company will be similar.

Imagine that you work with a lash vendor, and she told you that she’s a factory, she directly produce everything and eventually you found that she has bought the lash from many difference sources, then the quality of your lashes are not consistence….

As long as you have not facing those problem, you can still working with a trading company.
