What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

Direct answer Our minimum order is one 40HQ container, and it is quoted as one model in up to two colours. That is the default recommendation for a first order — it keeps the cutting, upholstery and loading runs efficient, so the unit price holds. 1 × 40HQMinimum order 1 model / 2 coloursDefault colour split Why the minimum is measured in containers Freight and loading Sea freight, packing and loading are all planned per container, so the order basis is a container rather than a number of sets. Fabric and frame runs Cutting and upholstery are set up per model and per colour. One model in two colours keeps the run clean and the cost stable. Same standard at any size Frame, foam D28 / D30 / D35 and 120–150 kg load rating do not change with order size — the minimum is about the container, not about quality. Repeat orders are simpler Once a model and colour are on file, the next container reuses the approved specification and moves faster. One model in up to two colours per container is the default first-order structure. How a first container is usually built 1Choose the model and up to two colours, and state the destination port. 2Confirm the specification; custom sampling takes 15–25 days after details are settled. 3Bulk production runs 30–45 days, fastest 25 days. Stock quick runs take 15 days, fastest 10. 4Inspection, then loading at Ningbo or Shanghai.

Limits to plan for More than two colours on the same model needs to be confirmed with the production line before it is quoted. Shipping is separate: we confirm production, inspection and loading; the carrier's sailing schedule is not part of the order. Peak season moves the bulk window, so containers planned around a fixed retail date should be booked early. Options such as power recline and lighting are specified before the container is released. Related questions Can I mix several models in one container? The default is one model in up to two colours. If you need a mixed-model container, send the model list and quantities and we will confirm what the line can take for that programme. Does the minimum change for a custom model? It stays on the same container basis. A new ODM model adds engineering and testing time, and sampling alone takes 15–25 days after details are confirmed. How many sets fit in a 40HQ? It depends on the model and the combination. Your quotation states the load quantity for each configuration, and the order is counted in containers rather than sets. Repeat models from the current range are the fastest way to plan the second container. In short: minimum one 40HQ container, one model in up to two colours, sampling 15–25 days, bulk 30–45 days (fastest 25). Recliner sofa and lift chair ranges

Can you expedite an urgent order, and how fast can you ship?

Direct answer Yes — when your container slot or seasonal window is fixed, we can expedite production. Bulk production normally runs 30–45 days after order confirmation; the fastest bulk schedule is 25 days. Stock-programme quick runs take 15 days, or 10 days fastest. 30–45 / 25 daysBulk: standard / fastest 15 / 10 daysStock quick run / fastest What decides whether an order can be expedited Volume and model mix Bulk production is quoted at 30–45 days; larger runs and more models leave less room to compress. Season Schedules float with order volume and season, so peak months need to be booked early. New or repeat model A complex new ODM model needs extra engineering and testing time. Repeat models move fastest. Specification sign-off Sampling takes 15–25 days once details are confirmed; production opens after approval. Standard showroom models move fastest on quick-run programmes. How to lock the fastest possible date 1Send your target date, model list, quantity and colour split. 2We confirm which models qualify for the quick-run window. 3Sign off samples or drawings — 15–25 days on custom programmes. 4Production runs, then inspection and loading at Ningbo or Shanghai.

Limits to plan for Fastest windows need settled specifications — an open colour or mechanism choice holds release. Shipping is separate: we confirm production, inspection and loading; the carrier's sailing schedule is not. Smart features add engineering steps — plan them into the date. Related questions What do you need to confirm a rush schedule? A target date, the model list, quantities and colour split, destination port, and sample approval — production cannot start before the specification is settled. Can a new ODM model use the fastest schedule? No. Complex new ODM functions need extra engineering and testing time, and sampling alone takes 15–25 days after details are confirmed. Why does lead time change with season? Bulk production floats with order volume and season, so the same model can quote differently by month. Confirm early. Repeat models from the current range ship fastest. In short: bulk 30–45 days (fastest 25), stock quick runs 15 days (fastest 10), sampling 15–25 days. Recliner sofa and lift chair ranges

What payment methods do you accept?

We commonly accept T/T and L/C, and in some cases credit card, depending on order size and country. Detailed payment terms (deposit balance, LC conditions, credit line) will be tailored by project and will be clearly stated in the PI and contract before you confirm the order.

Which trade terms and ports do you work with?

We can ship from Ningbo and Shanghai ports under trade terms such as EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, DDP and DDU, depending on your needs. For key accounts we can also support door-to-warehouse service and help coordinate local delivery partners. Please share your receiving address and preferred shipping method (FCL, LCL or mixed containers) when asking for a quote.

Do you accept trial orders or small test orders?

Yes. We are friendly to first-time cooperation and support trial orders with relatively low MOQ so that you can test the market before large-scale purchasing. Our team can suggest a small but representative assortment – for example, 1–2 hot-selling recliner sofa sets, 1 home theater model and 1–2 lift chairs – to help you quickly verify demand.

What is your typical lead time for samples and bulk orders?

Sample lead time is usually 3–5 days once details are confirmed, and mass production can be arranged with delivery in as fast as about 20–30 days, depending on order size and season. For new ODM models with complex functions we may need extra time for engineering and testing. During quotation we will give you a clear schedule for sampling, production, inspection and shipment.
