Whether imported products sold by agents are good or not depends on many factors. From the perspective of market demand, food and beverage products are a good choice. Nowadays, consumers are highly interested in foreign specialty foods, such as Japanese snacks, European wines, etc. They not only have unique tastes but also carry the halo of "exotic flavors". In terms of profit margins, the profits of imported foods are relatively considerable, usually reaching 20%-50%.
Baby and mother products also have great potential. Parents have high requirements for the quality of children's products. Imported baby and mother products win trust with high quality, such as German baby milk powder, Japanese diapers, etc. They have stable sales and the profit is about 15%-35%.
Beauty and skincare products are also popular. Korean cosmetics and first-line brand cosmetics from Europe and America are highly favored. They have a large market demand and the profit margins are often 30%-60%. These products have a wide audience. As long as you choose the right channels and brands, they all have good prospects.
