Bags & luggage sourcing

    Work with a verified bags manufacturer in China

    Backpacks, luggage, handbags, and OEM branded bags โ€” sourced from vetted factories with true FOB pricing, AQL 2.5 inspection, and freight managed door to port. No hidden trading-company markups.

    Quick Answer

    To source bags and luggage from China, work with a verified bags manufacturer rather than a trading company so you get the true FOB price and can audit the real factory. Trade Entrust vets factories from a network of 500+ verified suppliers, confirms materials and certifications, runs samples, and inspects finished goods to AQL 2.5 before shipment. Typical factory MOQs run 300โ€“1,000 units per style, bulk lead times are 30โ€“60 days, and we manage freight to your port.

    Materials & compliance

    Materials and certifications that matter

    The specs and paperwork that decide whether your bags pass customs and hold up in use.

    Common materials

    • 600Dโ€“1680D polyester and nylon (ripstop, Cordura-type weaves)
    • PU/PVC coated fabrics and canvas for fashion bags
    • PC/ABS shells for hardside luggage
    • Zippers, buckles, and hardware โ€” the parts that usually fail first

    Certifications to scope

    • REACH / RoHS on coatings and metal hardware (EU markets)
    • California Prop 65 for the US market
    • Restricted-substance tests: AZO dyes, phthalates, heavy metals
    • Extra scrutiny on kids' and baby bags โ€” mechanical and chemical safety

    We help scope which tests your specific product and destination actually require, so you don't over-test standard items or under-test regulated ones.

    How an order runs

    QC, MOQ, lead time & freight

    Honest ranges โ€” bags vary a lot by style and season, so treat these as planning figures, not promises.

    Quality control

    Inspected to AQL 2.5 on a random sample: zippers, stitching, seam and hardware pull tests, wheels and handles on luggage, plus print/logo accuracy โ€” with a photo-and-video report before shipment.

    MOQ

    Factory MOQs typically run 300โ€“1,000 units per style/colorway. We work on a $10,000 FOB minimum order value, which you can split across multiple styles from one factory.

    Lead time

    Roughly 2โ€“4 weeks for samples and 30โ€“60 days for bulk once samples are approved. Custom hardside luggage tooling can add time on a first order.

    Freight

    Ocean freight adds about 30โ€“45 days port-to-port to most Western markets; air is faster but usually only worth it for small or urgent shipments. We manage booking and documents.

    Transparent fees

    Our managed sourcing runs on a Project Initiation Fee of $300โ€“$1,500, a 1.5โ€“2% ops fee, and a 2โ€“8% commission โ€” with the real factory price shown to you, not hidden inside a markup. Plans come in Lite, Standard, and Premium tiers, and every order is tracked live in our ImportOS.ai portal. See pricing & commission for the full breakdown, or details on quality control inspection.

    Bags & luggage sourcing โ€” FAQ

    Start by separating real factories from trading companies: confirm a manufacturing (not just trading) license, ask for the export license, and verify the workshop in person or by live video. Trade Entrust vets factories from our network of 500+ verified suppliers, checks compliance documents, and runs a sample round before your first production order โ€” so you know the actual factory making your bags rather than a reseller.
