Ghana Shower Head wholesale export case

2025-10-30

Delivered 2,000 sets of bathroom fixtures to Ghana within 0 days, helping clients tap into the West African home improvement market


As a 20-year veteran in the bathroom industry, we are a source manufacturer and wholesaler committed to delivering "premium quality, fast delivery, and exceptional service" to provide customized bathroom solutions worldwide. In Q32023, we partnered with Mr.Kofi, a home improvement materials supplier in Accra, Ghana, to complete the production, quality inspection, customs clearance, and maritime delivery of 2,000 bathroom units within 30 days. This collaboration enabled our client to swiftly capture the peak season market for new home renovations and hotel upgrades, achieving an impressive first-month sales milestone of over 1,200 units. Below is a comprehensive case study of this Ghana export partnership, offering valuable insights for clients across West Africa.


Client Background: Ghanaian Building Materials Supplier's "Urgent Needs" and Core Pain Points


Mr.Kofi has been operating a building materials wholesale business in Accra, Ghana for eight years, primarily serving local home improvement companies, real estate developers, and hotel projects. In July 2023, he secured two major orders: one for bathroom fixtures for 1,500 apartments in a newly built residential complex, and another for bathroom renovations at three hotel chains. The combined order volume reached 2,000 units, with delivery required by September. Missing this deadline would mean missing the peak renovation season after Ghana's rainy season ends, which directly impacts annual revenue.


Before joining our team, Mr.Kofi had attempted to collaborate with local agents but encountered three critical pain points:


1

Long delivery time


Local agents need to purchase from Europe, and the delivery cycle is up to 60-90 days, which cannot meet the urgent demand in the peak season;

2

Poor product compatibility

European standard bathroom fixtures are oversized, making them incompatible with Ghana apartments' compact layouts that prioritize space efficiency. This mismatch has led to frequent customer complaints after installation.

3

Costs remain high


The cost of each set of bathroom equipment is 35% higher than that of direct procurement from China due to the added agent markup in the transit process, and the profit margin is severely compressed


Through the recommendation of the Ghana Building Materials Industry Association, Mr.Kofi contacted us, hoping to solve the problems of "slow delivery, poor compatibility, and high cost" through direct supply from China's source manufacturers.


Our solution: From "customized needs" to "full-process support


To meet Mr.Kofi's requirements, we have established a dedicated service team to provide end-to-end solutions covering product customization, production control, logistics optimization, and after-sales support.


Order Background


Considering that most residential units in Ghana are small and the local water quality is hard (easy to produce scale), we have optimized the bathroom products accordingly:


  • Size optimization: The bathroom cabinet width is reduced from the standard 80cm to 60-70cm, and the sink depth is increased by 5cm (to improve storage space) to accommodate small bathrooms.

  • Material upgrade: The faucet core features ceramic sealing material (resistant to scale corrosion), while the bathroom cabinet body uses waterproof multi-layer solid wood panels to withstand Ghana's humid climate.

  • Delivery time: 45 days from order confirmation to Houston warehouse

  • Complete accessories: In line with Ghana's renovation practices, each bathroom set comes with complimentary installation screws, sealing rings, and water inlet pipes (note: local accessories vary in quality to avoid customers wasting time on duplicate purchases).

Meanwhile, we provide three sets of samples (including toilet, bathroom cabinet, showerhead, and faucet) via DHL Express to Ghana. After Mr.Kofi receives them, he conducts on-site testing and installation. Once confirmed that the product's dimensions, materials, and functions fully meet the requirements, the procurement contract is formally signed.


Production control: the "efficiency code" for 30-day delivery


To ensure timely delivery, we have activated the "Urgent Production Plan" with clearly defined timelines for each phase:


  • Raw material procurement (1-3 days): Cooperate with long-term ceramic factory and hardware factory to prioritize the allocation of toilet body, faucet casting and other core raw materials to avoid raw material shortage and delay;

  • Production (4-20 days): Set up dedicated production lines for batch manufacturing (1,000 toilet sets/batch, 500 bathroom cabinets/batch). Daily progress updates are shared with Mr.Kofi, enabling real-time tracking of client status.

  • Quality Control (21-22 days): Implement the "Triple Quality Inspection Standard" — workshop self-inspection (piece-by-piece checks during production), finished product sampling (randomly selecting 50 sets per batch for water resistance and load-bearing performance testing), and export-specific inspection (complying with Ghana's GSB certification requirements to avoid customs clearance issues).

  • Packaging protection (23-24 days): The product is packaged in a triple-layer system of foam, corrugated cardboard, and wooden pallets. Anti-impact strips are additionally applied to the edges of the toilet tank and bathroom cabinet to minimize damage during shipping (with a final arrival damage rate of merely 0.3%).

Logistics clearance: hassle-free "door-to-door service"


Considering Mr.Kofi's unfamiliarity with China's export procedures, we will handle logistics and customs clearance throughout the process:


  • Customs declaration: Assign dedicated personnel to prepare commercial invoices, packing lists, GSB certification certificates and other complete customs declaration materials, and complete customs declaration within 1 day;


  • Shipping option: Partner with COSCO Shipping to take the direct route from Guangzhou Port to Tema Port, Ghana, in just 28 days (12 days faster than the transit route), with full cargo insurance covering loss and damage.

  • Customs clearance assistance: Submit all required documents to the Ghanaian customs broker in advance. The clearance process will be completed within 24 hours of the goods 'arrival at the port, followed by arranging truck delivery to Mr.Kofi's warehouse in Accra's suburbs. All logistics updates will be provided in real-time throughout the process.

Ultimately, the entire process from contract signing to goods warehousing took just 29 days, one day ahead of the client's delivery deadline, giving Mr.Kofi ample time for warehousing and distribution.


Achievements: Double success in customer profitability and market recognition


This collaboration not only addressed Mr.Kofi's urgent needs, but also helped him establish a competitive edge in the Ghanaian market


  • Cost reduction by 30%: Direct procurement from China manufacturers, eliminating the transit link of European agents, reducing the cost of each set of bathroom equipment by 30% compared to the previous, and increasing the profit margin by 25%;

  • Delivery efficiency increased by 60%: the 30-day delivery cycle is more than half shorter than the 60-90 days of local agents, enabling customers to complete the preparation of goods before the decoration peak season and seize the market opportunity;

  • Sales and reputation soar: Mr.Kofi's bathroom products, featuring locally tailored designs and consistent quality, gained popularity among home decoration companies. They sold over 1,200 units in the first month, with an additional 1,500 units ordered later.

  • Long-term partnership: Building on the trust established through this collaboration, Mr.Kofi has signed an 'Annual Strategic Cooperation Agreement' with us, committing to a minimum annual procurement volume of 5,000 units in 2024 and authorizing us as his exclusive bathroom fixtures supplier.
