Hey guys, I am thinking about producing a product in china and have several questions. Would be great if someone has an answer, I want to make it as cheap as possible. Several facts first:
The weight is 5 kilo per product, like 1000 kilo in total. 1 kilo costs me around 3-4€ I want to sell it for around 50€ (as I said, 5 kilo in total).
My question now is: Can this be profitable? If so, how can i make it possible? Shall i let it packaged in China and maybe even sell it from there? In this case I would not have importing costs to Europe. How much costs packaging in total? Should I let it package in China at lesst and THEN import it to Europe. How much are the costs for a warehouse, how much do I have to pay for duty?
Are there any other expenses I totally forgot?

Thank you very much!
