How to Import Home Appliances from China: A Guide for African Distributors

Importing small home appliances from China is one of the most profitable businesses in Africa today — if you avoid the common pitfalls. Here is what our partners in Nigeria, Ghana and Kenya recommend.

1. Work with a real factory, not a middleman

Always verify the factory. Leson products come from a 20,000+ m² plant with in-house injection molding, assembly and QC — you can even request a live video tour before ordering.

2. Start with a mixed container

Test the market with a mixed 20ft container of best-selling models (2.8L, 4L cookers and kettles). Leson supports small MOQ for first-time buyers.

3. Check certifications and documents

Make sure your supplier provides CE/CB certificates and can support Soncap (Nigeria) or PVOC (Kenya) documentation. We prepare full export documents for every shipment.

4. Protect your brand

With OEM/ODM service you can put your own logo on the products and cartons — build a brand instead of reselling commodities.
