Sourcing home and kitchen for US brands

Cookware, storage, small appliances and homeware.

The category

What we source in home and kitchen

Cookware, bakeware, food storage, utensils, small kitchen appliances, cleaning tools, textiles and organisation products.

What catches importers out

Anything that touches food has to meet FDA food contact requirements, and selling into California adds Proposition 65 warning obligations. Coatings, non stick surfaces and plastics are where most failures happen.

Where it gets made

Guangdong for appliances and plastics, Zhejiang for cookware and kitchen tools, Fujian for ceramics and stoneware.

Questions

Home and Kitchen sourcing, answered

What is the minimum order for home and kitchen?
It depends on the specific product and whether it needs custom tooling. Stock items can start low, while a custom moulded product needs volume to justify the mould. We give you the realistic number for your product before you commit.
Which compliance rules apply to home and kitchen in the US?
Anything that touches food has to meet FDA food contact requirements, and selling into California adds Proposition 65 warning obligations. Coatings, non stick surfaces and plastics are where most failures happen.
Can you handle the testing and certification?
Yes. We coordinate testing through accredited laboratories and manage the documentation pack so the certificates exist before the goods ship, not after a marketplace asks for them.
Can you ship this category into Amazon FBA?
Yes, including FNSKU and carton labelling and box content submission. Some products in this category have prep requirements specific to Amazon, which we handle at our US facility.
