If you buy goods from Chinese suppliers, you may need a reliable service to receive packages in China before your orders are shipped to Nigeria. This is especially useful when buying from multiple suppliers on Alibaba, 1688, Taobao or directly from manufacturers.
Instead of asking every supplier to arrange international shipping, you can have your packages delivered to a designated warehouse in China.
How Package Receiving Works
The process typically involves:
- You receive a China warehouse address from your logistics provider.
- Your suppliers send their packages to the warehouse.
- The warehouse receives and identifies each package.
- Your parcels are recorded under your customer reference.
- Packages can be consolidated where appropriate.
- The shipment is prepared for transportation to Nigeria.
This is convenient if you have several orders arriving from different suppliers.
What Your Supplier Needs
Before your supplier ships, provide the correct:
- Warehouse address
- Recipient or contact details
- Customer reference number
- Package labelling instructions
- Phone number where required
Always confirm the current warehouse information before sending your goods. Using an outdated address can cause unnecessary delays.
How Travo.ng Can Help
Travo.ng can help Nigerian importers coordinate the logistics involved in receiving packages in China and moving cargo to Nigeria. Where suitable, multiple packages can also be coordinated for consolidation before shipment.

Before Sending Your Package
Confirm that the warehouse:
- Is currently accepting your shipment
- Has your correct customer reference
- Can handle your type of goods
- Has received your supplier’s shipping information
Proper package receiving in China is an important first step toward getting your goods to Nigeria without avoidable complications.
