When sourcing paper products from China, international buyers often face a crucial decision:
Should you work with a trading company or partner directly with a manufacturer?
At first glance, both options may seem similar, but in practice, the differences are significant. Here’s why choosing a factory like Hewbonn Paper—which integrates both production and export operations—is a smarter, more cost-effective choice.
Trading companies typically add a markup to factory prices. In contrast, buying directly from the manufacturer saves you 5% to 20% by eliminating unnecessary commissions.
With Hewbonn Paper, you get transparent, factory-direct pricing with no hidden costs.
Trading companies rely on third-party suppliers and often struggle with product customization.
At Hewbonn, we own our production lines and provide flexible OEM & ODM services—from product size, weight, and packaging design to branded private labeling.
Your brand, our manufacturing.
A trading company’s delivery depends on the availability of its partner factories, often resulting in delays.
As a direct manufacturer, we manage our own production schedules, allowing us to meet deadlines efficiently and respond quickly to urgent orders.
With over 40 years of paper manufacturing experience, Hewbonn Paper maintains strict quality control throughout the entire process—from raw materials to final inspection.
Unlike trading companies, we offer complete visibility, consistency, and traceability in every order.
With 15+ years of export experience, our in-house logistics team handles everything from packing, booking, customs clearance to final delivery.
We understand the documentation and regulatory requirements for each market—saving you time, money, and hassle.
