Electronic material procurement wants to find agents for convenience, after all, the channel is regular and the quality is guaranteed, but when the purchase volume is small, the agent does not support it, 

and the delivery time is too long to catch up, so you have to buy components from traders. So, should you find agents or traders?

The question of quantity

When a company is large and has a high procurement volume, agents are highly welcomed. However, when the volume is small, seeking an agent often results in indifference. In such cases, it is necessary 

to turn to traders, especially when dealing with BOM orders. With so many categories and dozens of brands, it is unrealistic to expect agents to represent all of them. In such situations, relying solely on 

agents is insufficient, especially for order matching, where agents rarely manage to fulfill all the orders.

Short delivery time is a very important purchasing index. Many factories have short purchasing time. When the procurement project arrives, the company needs to receive the goods at the first time.

The delivery time of agents is often several tens of weeks, which is too long. In such cases, it is necessary to seek out traders for procurement. 

However, the electronic component procurement market is highly complex, and quality can easily go out of control if not handled carefully. Therefore, it is essential to choose a reliable supplier for 

procurement. ICONE CHIP COMPANY, with 13 years of experience in supplying components, strictly controls quality and can deliver within as little as three hours. We welcome your inquiries.

In fact, the choice of agents or traders depends on the quantity and delivery time requirements. When there is a large purchase volume, you can find agents; when there is an urgent order or a small 

quantity, you can find traders. In this way, mixed supplier management can solve all problems,

The selection and management of suppliers are crucial. Maintaining a good relationship with suppliers can lead to easier cooperation and support. For instance, when orders are small, suppliers are less 

likely to raise prices, and they tend to offer more support in terms of payment. They are also unlikely to change agreed-upon prices or delivery times without cause. When prices are raised, they will not 

divert goods to other customers. Most importantly, suppliers should prioritize quality control and consistently help customers maintain high product standards.

Supplier relations

A good supplier can solve most of the problems. The trader has many channels, which can help customers spend less time and effort, and the agent has stable sources and regular channels. Each has its 

own advantages, and what suits you is the right one. See you next time.
