How do you find suppliers on Alibaba?
Q: "How do you find suppliers on Alibaba?" A: I look for ones with "Trade Assurance" and "Verified supplier." I also look at the length of time they've been in business and $ Volume they do and then take a leap of faith on a small order. Build trust over time.
If I were doing a large order, I would fly to China and visit a few factories in person. My understanding is that certain regions and certain factories excel in producing certain products.
However, this is not my area of expertise, and there are many more experienced individuals on this subject. I'm just a developer trying to keep escalating costs down and deal with supply chain issues.
You can also do a reverse search and find out which factories the companies you are ordering from get their supplies by searching on

You might have to first find which company the trademark is registered to:
