Noziroh Hub is a complex services package. We have collected in this page the most frequently questions asked by our customers.
1. What is Noziroh Hub in a nutshell?
Noziroh Hub is an useful tool for any company that wants to manage its business in Asia and / or Europe (for import and export). We offer a space in our branch in China and / or Italy with all the related services, in order to import / export the goods in total safety, making your business grow and saving time, money, training, unexpected events.
2. Who is the Noziroh Hub service package for?
We are working with companies from various sectors and sizes, we report below concrete examples (we do not mention the names for privacy reasons):
- The family-owned electronics store *** had to close during the lockdown (March 2020). Meanwhile, *** tried to sell online in major marketplaces, but was not competitive due to the prices offered by its regular supplier. They never considered importing from China, having no experience, but now with a small investment they are able to buy the same products and be competitive on the online market.
- The company *** buys semi-finished products and then finishes them in Italy, but their supplier has raised their prices. Working together, we found a factory in China capable of producing the semi-finished product they requested with the same specifications and details. Now *** can therefore evaluate a wider range of articles.
- The startup *** has decided to create a brand and a dedicated products line. We looked for suppliers who accepted the targets requested by them, following them in the design of the product and in the production of packaging, advertising material (slips, labels, brochures) and packaging.
- *** is a distributor of household products, had its trusted suppliers and an agent in China who was in charge of negotiating purchases and shipping the goods to the warehouse in Mexico. During the lockdown, *** ran into major supply problems as his agent went missing. *** contacted us and we were able in a short time to restore relations with its suppliers, thus saving their business. Now he works with us, we stock his products, check them and send them to him.
In conclusion, companies of any product category may find this package of services useful (except the food sector).
3. Which product category can you search and supply?
We can search and supply any kind of product category, except food and beverages.
4. Who will communicate and negotiate with suppliers, factories and shippers?
We will communicate for you, because we know the language, the culture and we have privileged relationships with many companies cultivated during the years.
5. Who handles the shipments? Delivery time?
We ship with major international carriers and support the importation of goods.
From when the goods leave our warehouse, it will take 5 to 10 working days to arrive at their destination if sent by express courier. If the goods are sent by ship it will take 25-30 working days; by train instead 18-25 working days.
If we have to ship the customer's retail orders as a dropshipper and need cheap shipping, we can use international registered mail. In this case, delivery times are 20 working days.
6. Does Customer import the goods from China?
Yes, the customer is the importer and will be followed by us for all the necessary steps.
If the company asks to ship the goods from our warehouse to its end customer (dropshipping-dropshipper service), the end customer will be the importer.
If the customer subscribed also for Hub Europe, we can also manage the goods import for him.
7. How long does it take to provide a quotation from suppliers?
We usually take 24/48 hours to send a quote. It may take longer time if the products require special processing, customization or there are a lot of products in the customer's sourcing list.
8. Do you increase the price of the goods to take supply profit?
No, we work differently and for transparency we explain you how.
1. We find the factory that produces the item that our customer requested (if the quantities are small, we usually contact a reseller).
2. We negotiate with the company the best purchasing conditions, respecting the customer's requests.
3. The factory will not have to manage the risks and practices for an international shipment, as it will send the goods to our warehouse in China - this is an easy sale for them. Adding the fact that we will pay them in RMB, a more stable currency than the USD, we would get a lower price.
4. We show the quote to the customer and, once he has confirmed, we conclude the transaction by paying the company in RMB, a more stable currency than the dollar.
5. In this way, we can get a price from 5 to 15% lower than the market price. In some cases we go up to 20%, it depends if the factory has products in stock or is renewing the catalog.
6. After we have agreed with the factory and told them what we do, we put it on a list of preferred suppliers. They will be contacted in case of future requests relating to categories of products supplied by them. The collaboration stipulated allows us to obtain a bonus for every order we place with this company, this is our profit.
9. How does the warranty of the goods work?
The warranty on the goods is standard for every kind of product. The supplier always offers a 12 month warranty on all products; customized and tailor made products are excluded. Only manufacturing defects are covered by the warranty, not damage caused by third parties. The return costs are charged to the customer.

Up to 10 cubic meters, the cost of the excess volume has the same cost as the subscribed plan (Light, Pro, Elite). This is because the cubic meter is the only quantifiable unit of all the services provided (more cubic meters implies more work, more quality control, more time to prepare the goods and much more).
The difference between the plans offered is the quality of assistance, which we must guarantee on every cubic meter purchased by the customer.
