How many US dollars are needed for custom - made imported Chinese cake cabinets?

In 2025, Southeast Asian merchants are very interested in Chinese cake cabinets. According to the data, more than 2,000 enterprises imported refrigerated cake cabinets in the first half of the year. The main reasons are that they are cheap in price and good in quality. Since February, the rising temperature has brought better sales. So, how much does it cost to import branded cake cabinets from China?

The factors affecting the price are brand premium, transportation, tariffs, and customization complexity. Cooluma said that there are many finished products in the warehouse at present, and the price is less than 1,000 US dollars. It adopts a variety of designs such as right - angled, arc - shaped, and island - shaped, basically meeting the market demand.

For personalized customization, the price fluctuates by about 50%. Involving special temperature control systems (such as precise dual - temperature zones) and personalized appearance designs (such as embedded and special - shaped structures) will increase costs and lead to price increases.

Regarding tariffs, it depends on the specific tariff value. Specifically, assume that the original price of an imported cake cabinet in the international market is 100 US dollars. If the importing country levies a 20% tariff on it, then the actual cost for the importer to obtain the product becomes 100 + 100×20% = 120 US dollars. To ensure a reasonable profit, the importer is likely to set the selling price at a level higher than 120 US dollars, so that consumers need to pay a higher price when purchasing the equipment. Therefore, the higher the tariff rate, the more the commodity cost increases, and the greater the increase in the final selling price is often.

In addition, brand premium usually refers to the part of the value that a brand, relying on intangible assets such as its accumulated popularity, reputation, and consumer loyalty in the market, makes the selling price of its products or services higher than that of similar non - branded or weak - branded products. The brand premium is more serious for big brands, which is why many users like to choose small brands with reliable quality.

The transportation costs include the usage fees of transportation tools (such as trucks, ships, etc.), the expenditures of various personnel involved in the transportation process, the time wasted due to transportation delays (such as traffic congestion, weather impacts, and time - consuming procedures), the possible order default fines and customer loss risks, or the invalid mileage costs increased due to unreasonable transportation routes.

Of course, the most crucial cost is the customization cost, including factory processing fees, material fees, and cake cabinet certification fees, etc. These costs account for a relatively large proportion.

Overall, custom - making cake cabinets from China is more favorable compared with other countries. The price can be further communicated with the supplier. If you need to know more, Cooluma is willing to provide you with more services.
