🏆 Why Sourcing Teams Choose This Scraper

Most scrapers only extract a basic product title and a single flat price. This tool was custom-built for professional importers, procurement managers, and e-commerce buyers who need actionable factory data:

• Direct Factory Bulk Pricing: View the exact tiered volume discount brackets (e.g., 2–99 pcs, 100–499 pcs, 500+ pcs) that Chinese domestic distributors receive.
• Exclusive FBA Packaging Weights & Dimensions: Accurately calculate air freight, sea shipping, and Amazon FBA fulfillment fees using physical unit weights (in grams) and package dimensions per SKU.
• Full Variant & Spec Matrix with Matching Photos: Capture every SKU option (all colors, sizes, and configurations) along with individual variant pricing, warehouse stock count, and high-resolution spec photos.
• Verified Manufacturer Badges: Cut out middlemen and trading companies by filtering directly for Alibaba-certified Super Factories (超级工厂) and plants with third-party on-site audits (深度验厂).
• Logistics & Fulfillment SLA: Check the factory's dispatch location, 48-hour delivery commitment, and buyer protection policies before ordering samples.
• Customer Repurchase Trust Metric: Use real customer Repurchase Rates (回头率) to instantly separate top-tier manufacturers from poor-quality suppliers.
• Dedicated Wholesale Sourcing Channels: Query specialized 1688 channels at the source: Direct Factory (找工厂 for OEM/ODM), Super Factory (超级工厂 for top certified mega-plants), Cross-Border Export (跨境专供 for Amazon FBA / Temu / TikTok sellers), or Ready-to-Ship Spot Market (现货批发).
• 1-Click Spreadsheet Download: Run directly in your browser and export clean, structured datasets in Microsoft Excel, CSV, or Google Sheets.

💡 Smart Sourcing Tips for Global Importers

1. Spot True Manufacturers vs. Middlemen:
   • Turn on the Super Factory (超级工厂) or Factory Inspection (深度验厂) filters. These badges require physical on-site facility audits and government business licenses, ensuring you aren't paying middleman markups.
2. Use the Repurchase Rate (回头率) as a Quality Filter:
   • On 1688, a repurchase rate above 30%–40% indicates that Chinese domestic retailers repeatedly reorder this product. It is one of the strongest indicators of consistent product quality.
3. Check the Tiered Bulk Prices:
   • Chinese factories love volume. The tiered pricing table shows you what large domestic distributors pay, giving you immediate bargaining power when ordering samples or production runs.
4. Source from the Right Chinese Regions:
   • Guangdong Province (Shenzhen, Dongguan, Guangzhou): Electronics, phone accessories, audio, modern apparel.
   • Zhejiang Province (Yiwu, Ningbo, Wenzhou): Small commodities, stationery, home organizers, hardware, jewelry.
   • Jiangsu Province (Suzhou, Nantong): Textiles, bedding, home decor, plush toys.
   • Fujian Province (Quanzhou, Putian): Footwear, outdoor bags, sports gear.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I need a 1688 account or Chinese phone number to use this scraper?

No. You do not need any 1688 account, login credentials, or Chinese phone number. All data extraction runs seamlessly in the background on the Apify platform.

Does this scraper support English keywords?

Yes. You can search in English (e.g. phone case, smart watch) or Chinese (e.g. 手机壳, 蓝牙耳机). Chinese keywords often return a wider selection of domestic manufacturers.

How do I export my data to Excel or Google Sheets?

Once your scraper run completes, click the Export button in the Apify Console. You can immediately download your clean dataset in Microsoft Excel (.xlsx), CSV, JSON, or sync it directly to Google Sheets.

How is this scraper billed?

This scraper uses Apify's transparent Pay-Per-Event (PPE) pricing model. You only pay for the products you successfully scrape—never for idle server time. Check the Pricing tab at the top of this page for up-to-date rates and automatic subscription tier discounts.

Why is the Customer Repurchase Rate (回头率) so important?

The repeat-customer rate (回头率) measures the percentage of buyers who reorder from that specific manufacturer within a rolling period. A high repurchase rate (30%+) is the single best metric to verify reliable product quality on 1688.

Can I scrape specific product links or search URLs copied from 1688?

Yes. Simply paste one or more 1688 URLs directly into Start URLs. You can paste direct product offer links (e.g. https://detail.1688.com/offer/685176373959.html), numeric Offer IDs (685176373959), or search listing URLs (e.g. https://s.1688.com/selloffer/offer_search.htm?keywords=hoodie). The scraper automatically detects the URL type, parses embedded filters, and routes each item cleanly.

How does this work with AI agents via MCP?

By configuring the Apify MCP Server (https://mcp.apify.com) in your AI assistant (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf), your assistant can autonomously run scraperpro/1688-wholesale-scraper as a tool, inspect the structured output schema, compare factories, calculate landed margins, and translate product attributes on demand.
