You don’t need a massive warehouse or corporate-level buying power to import high-quality outdoor furniture from Vietnam. In fact, many small retailers are now working directly with Vietnam furniture manufacturers to source sustainable, affordable collections with lower upfront investment. This guide shows how even small businesses can get started with outdoor furniture wholesale from Vietnam—without breaking the bank.
1. Understand MOQ Flexibility in Vietnam
Many retailers assume that sourcing from overseas requires massive minimum order quantities (MOQs). But the reality is that some Vietnamese furniture manufacturers are willing to work with small retailers to offer flexible MOQs.
At our Vietnamese furniture factory, for example, we allow new buyers to test the market with 1-3 different products in a 20ft container or up to 5 product designs in a 40ft HC container. This lets you launch your outdoor range without overcommitting.
2. Focus on Evergreen Outdoor Furniture Products
If you’re working with a limited budget, focus on proven products like:
1/ Folding chairs and tables
2/ Adirondack chairs
3/ Outdoor dining sets
4/ Benches
These are consistent sellers in markets across Europe and North America and can be sourced at scale through trusted outdoor furniture manufacturers in Vietnam.
3. Leverage Factory Relationships for Better Terms
When you work directly with a factory rather than a trading company or agent, you gain more visibility into pricing and lead times. Reliable Vietnam furniture manufacturers will work with you on:
1/ Staggered payments (e.g., 30/70 or 20/80 terms)
2/ Consolidated shipments
3/ Mixed container loading (so you don’t have to order pallets of just one product)
You can also request FSC certification, custom packaging, or branding even as a smaller buyer—just communicate your goals clearly.
4. Start with a Core Set, Then Expand
If you’re new to importing furniture made in Vietnam, don’t try to launch with 10+ styles right away. Start with 2-3 core products. Run a local ad campaign or place them in your showroom. Gather feedback, and use that real-world data to guide your second container order.
Scaling your outdoor furniture wholesale business doesn’t require going all-in upfront—it requires a smart, staged approach.
5. Get Expert Support from a Trusted Manufacturer
