For Boutique owners, choosing the right channel to stock their store is key to the success of their business.

With the growth of free marketing, there has been a lot of discussion among retailers recently about the feasibility of sourcing from Temu. As far as I know, some boutique owners have previously wholesaled from Nihaojewelry.

Who is winning in 2024? In this article, we compared Nihaojewelry and Temu to unveil the best sourcing channels for US boutique owners and help them make informed decisions to maximize their sales.

Nihaojewelry vs. Temu: Overview

According to statistics, Nihaojewelry currently has over 60W customers. Most of them are boutique owners, physical stores, wholesalers, and so on.

And those who buy on Temu are usually young consumers who like to shop online and are easily guided by price.

Nihaojewelry vs. Temu: Comparison

How to choose to maximize your boutique’s profits in 2024? I compared them in the following four ways:

• Product range

Nihaojewelry has over 50W of fashion jewelry and thousands of other products in the main categories: fashion accessories, bags, clothing, hair accessories, beauty care, and other fashion products.

But NIHAO focuses more on trendy accessories and jewelry at great prices.

If you are a boutique owner who makes trendy jewelry or accessories, you can follow NIHAO’s lead and increase your store sales by offering your customers high-quality, hot-selling products within a budgeted cost.

In addition to jewelry and accessories, Temu also includes electronic products, furnishings, beauty products, and so on.

If your boutique has a wide range of products, choosing Temu will allow your store to meet the needs of different customers.

• Product price

All of Nihaojewelry’s products are 100% factory price, most of the items are priced at US$0.5 – US$3.

As a boutique owner, you can get very competitive items to save more.

Temu offers great discounts on cheap items. Due to the price range of the items may vary according to different product categories, so it is not possible to get an overall price range, but most of the jewelry prices are above US$1.

At Temu, you can source a wide range of products at reasonable prices and free standard shipping on items shipped from Temu, which can make you earn high profits for the store.

For example, in the U.S., I want to buy a pair of women’s earrings as shown in the picture, but I don’t know where to buy them to save more, I did the following research:

After some research, I found that at Nihao, I can also enjoy different discounts on items when the stock quantity of the same item is more than 12, 36, and 60:

Besides, although NIHAO charges shipping fees separately, (US $4.3 per kg will be added when exceeding 500g), there is a shipping calculator.

We just need to know how to optimize the shipping cost according to the purchase volume.

Shipping will be more favorable if you increase your purchase. You will enjoy the below shipping discount when your order meets the below weight.

And at Temu, I’m not allowed to buy more than 100 pieces of the same item if I want to.

So for me, want to buy less than 7 pieces, Temu is better for me because he only charges the price of the item. To buy more than 10 pieces, choosing Nihaojewelry is the way to go.

If we want to expand our boutique business and need to stock in large quantities, Nihaojewelry is the perfect choice for us.

Since Nihaoejwelry is mainly for retailers who stock in bulk, the selling price for individual items will be much lower than Temu’s.

Not to mention that NIHAO has additional discounts for large orders and VIP customers, which can help us reduce our stocking costs by a large amount.

• Customer service

Nihaojewelry has a 24-hour personal account manager with multiple communication channels: email, live chat, phone support, and so on.

We even have access to our account manager for boutique business options and specific stocking solutions.

At Temu, we can contact customer service by sending a message or using social media platforms.

If we want to develop a more detailed stocking program for our boutique or other business needs, we can choose to contact with account manager at NIHAO. Both can be considered if it’s just a daily consultation.

• Shipping methods

Nihaojewelry has full logistics solutions by air, land, and sea. There is no need to worry about the long stocking period which will affect the hotness of the products.

Similar to Nihaojewelry, Temu places great importance on timely shipping and delivery. Currently, Temu’s shipping lead time is usually 6 to 25 days.

Of course, we can also choose expedited shipping, but we need to meet the purchase amount of over US$129 to get free shipping.

Here is a comparison of the logistic methods of Nihaojewelry and Temu:

In addition, Nihaojewelry can help with customs clearance so that we can effortlessly ship boutique-ready products to the US. Temu, on the other hand, has to pay additional taxes and fees when ordering.

Nihaojewelry vs Temu: A Summary

Here’s a list of comparisons I’ve compiled:

In conclusion, both Nihaojewelry and Temu offer a wide range of products, competitive prices, efficient shipping, and reliable customer service.

Through the comparison in this article, we have found that Nihaojewelry is more suitable for free marketers who buy in bulk and various boutiques, physical stores, retailers, etc., developing businesses. Temu is more suitable for buyers with small inventory needs and personal purchases for personal use.
