Re: Alibaba Gold Level
No, I use SS, and copper to build equipment for pharma, brewing, etc. But, I sell it globally. Being gold level on Alibaba comes with tons of perks like being able to respond to 5 requests for quotes (rfqs) daily. For example, we build a specific type of tank. I went on Alibaba and found 26 RFQs for the same tank we manufacture. GOLD MINE!
People say U.S. manufacturing is dead, but you really just have to build a highly specialized product that either can't be mass produced, or simply lacks the incentive to do so, i.e. the product is too R&D or support intensive, or highly customized. Our prices are slightly higher than our Chineses competitors, but we offer a much better warranty, delivery and installation, support during U.S. business hours, etc., which makes all the difference.
