Are You Preparing To Come To The Canton Fair To Source And Develop Your Private Label Product?

Please, skip the from the old days
The Way Product Development Used To Be (Before this Canton Fair Pre-Accelerator)
Coming to the Canton Fair (and the many other trade shows in south China) is a great way to take action in making your own private label product. But coming without a plan is like coming to a sex party without a condom. You need to be prepared.
It is our strong opinion that you need to have already been discussing your product with multiple factories BEFORE coming to the fair. You should know what their booth number is, you should have some initial quotations from factories, and a solid product blueprint.
Let This Pre-Accelerator Be Your Trusted Product Manufacturing Secret Weapon
The Canton Fair Pre-Accelerator is put together by industry experts on the ground in China with 25+ years of combined experience. This isn’t a trip – this is an intensive, day in and day out grind to ensure you have a product development roadmap and system in place to take to Canton Fair and more.
Here is a word from our Program Lead, Rico Ngoma, co-founder of Source Find Asia.
We are tired of having the story of hearing entrepreneurs coming to Canton Fair without a plan. They are overwhelmed with booths and end up wasting a lot of time (and money) as they won’t leave the trade shows with a solid plan. This pre-accelerator was put together to give them a winning package and a “loaded gun” when entering the massive trade showRico Ngoma, Host of Made in China Podcast
Introducing A One Of a Kind, In Person, Product Development Program
The Canton Fair Pre-Accelerator is the one stop solution for you to be fully prepared for your China sourcing trip.. But this isn’t just an “experience” and “tour” – this is a full action plan and implementation to get you inside the factories, with the orders ready to take action.
Once you are ready to invest your time and money to come to China for the Canton Fair, you need to be prepared. This is that exact preparation. We want to be the all inclusive package for you once you have made that commitment to come out. Here is what to expect:
