Hey Patrick! Thank you for reaching out. To find a supplier that fits your needs and sells beer glasses, I’d recommend checking out our 12 Best Dropshipping Suppliers Blog: https://bit.ly/3MKKuVu. AliExpress for example, offers some great options! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
What about a confidentiality form, will I need to present one to the manufacturer?
Hello there! I would recommend you ask the suppliers directly as they would have the best info on that for you depending on their own requirements.
Hello! Great info. How do I find a list of manufacturers in Vietnam for certain category? I have called the embassy business phone number but they couldn’t help me! I need this before I book my flight to Vietnam so I know which airport I should choose!
Hey Denise, great question. I would recommend contacting a legal representative to determine if this would be necessary.

What if I wanted to have something PERFECTLY replicated that is rare, elaborate and hasn’t been made for about 80 years? How would you go about that?
do you have an email address need to talk some more about business
Thank you so much for this! How do I make sure that the manufacturer would not produce my unique design to other sellers?shall I need to patent my design frist and make a contract with the manufacturer?thanks
This video was AMAZING! Thank you! One question though, you mentioned about 100% Quality control initially, but if we open the product that was meant for the customer , does it not make the product used before we could ship ?
This video is really helpful
