Ready stock footwear staged for shipment
Ready stock

In stock now,
confirmed on inquiry.

Sometimes the right answer is not a new tooling programme. It is taking product that already exists on the floor and getting it on a boat while the season is still open.

When to use it

Three moments ready stock wins.

Testing a market

Take a small quantity, list it, measure sell-through. No tooling, no MOQ negotiation, no production window — just an answer about the market.

Mid-season restock

A style sold out earlier than planned. ready-stock availability confirmed on inquiry, which is the difference between capturing the season and missing it.

Filling a container

Combine ready-stock lines with production lines in one shipment, so part of the volume arrives when you need it and the rest follows.

Range

What sits in stock.

Our in-stock programme covers athletic footwear across the categories we build — running, court, walking, trail, mesh and knit, and lifestyle and street. Styles and quantities move, so ask for the current list rather than working from a static catalogue.

Sizes can be mixed within a single order, so the shipment reflects the size curve you actually sell rather than a factory-friendly default.

Process

Shortest route from enquiry to container.

Ask for the stock list

Tell us the category, the sizes and the quantity. A human replies within 12 working hours.

Confirm and pay

Payment terms are confirmed with the quotation.

Ship

Ready-stock timing is confirmed on inquiry. FOB Guangzhou, with other major Chinese ports available on request. CIF available and DDP for full-container orders.

Restock

If it sells, reorder from stock or move the style to a production programme with your own branding.

Speed

What buyers check next

Inventory is only useful if it is still there.

Ready stock is for speed, not for guessing. Quantities, sizes and prices are confirmed per style on inquiry — we do not publish a live count that will be stale by the time you read it.

Use stock to test a market, then convert the winners into a branded programme. Factory photos and the QC chain are the same whether the pair comes from stock or from a new run.

Show all 6 questions

What is available for sneakers wholesale right now?

+
For sneakers wholesale we keep ready-stock ranges across athletic shoes wholesale, sport shoes wholesale, performance shoes wholesale and casual shoes wholesale categories. Stock programmes move fast; custom development runs per style, per colourway and per size from 300+ pairs.

What does ready stock mean exactly?

+
It means the product already exists on the floor rather than waiting for a production slot. There is no tooling to open and no minimum build — the limit is what is currently in stock, so ask for the live list.

How fast does ready stock ship?

+
Timing is confirmed per style from confirmation. Sea transit then runs typically 25-40 days to the EU and US, depending on destination and incoterm.

Can I put my own branding on ready stock?

+
Branding, packaging and labelling requirements can be discussed for ready-stock lines, though the fastest route is unmodified stock. If you need the full private label treatment, a production programme is usually the better route.

Can I mix ready stock with a production order?

+
Yes. Combining ready-stock lines with production lines in one shipment is a common pattern when part of the volume is needed sooner — the stock arrives first and the production run follows.

What are the payment terms?

+
Payment terms are confirmed with the quotation. T/T and L/C can both be discussed once style, quantity and destination are clear.
