The first container is the scary one. FCDC Motor publishes a Wholesale Dirt Bikes from China page that covers model mix and MOQ and is built as a dealer RFQ entry point — which means the path is designed for exactly the importer placing a first order. This guide walks the sequence: do not wire for a full container blind, sample first, then build a mixed container you can actually sell.
Why the wholesale page exists
The wholesale page is explicitly about model mix and MOQ for dealers, not retail. That framing matters: it tells a first-time importer that the unit of sale is a container plan, not a single bike, and that the factory expects you to arrive with a model mix in mind. Read it as the start of an RFQ, not a price list.
Step 1 — sample before you container
The lowest-risk first move is a sample order, not a full container. A sample lets you confirm build, packing and the document pack before committing freight on a mixed load. FCDC Motor supports sample orders ahead of wholesale, so the sequence is sample → inspect → container, not container → hope. State the models you want to sample and the intended market; the quote should reflect sample pricing and the path to a container.
Step 2 — understand MOQ as a container plan
MOQ on a wholesale dirt-bike container is a planning number, not a retail threshold. FCDC Motor’s wholesale page covers MOQ; the exact figure depends on the model mix you choose, so confirm it in writing against your specific list rather than quoting a single number you saw once. A first-time importer who locks a container to a MOQ they never tied to a model list is the importer who ends up with units they cannot place.
Step 3 — build a model mix you can sell
| Container slot | Example role | Why it earns the slot |
|---|---|---|
| Entry | 125cc pit bike (e.g. BSE PH02) | Captures first-bike and paddock buyers |
| Core | 300cc dirt bike (e.g. KAYO YB300H) | The volume class most dealers lead with |
| Option | Electric ATV | Adds a low-noise second line |
The mix above is an illustration of the role each class plays, built from categories FCDC Motor actually lists. The exact unit count per slot is your market call and must be confirmed against the MOQ for your chosen models — we do not publish a container unit total because it varies with the mix.
Step 4 — the document pack, before departure
Before a container leaves, the file that protects you is the document pack: commercial invoice whose description matches the crate, packing list, chassis and engine number list, bill of lading description, origin documents, and any pre-shipment treatment record. FCDC Motor supplies the document pack on request; your job is to make the invoice and packing list agree with the models you actually ordered. A mismatch at the border is slower and cheaper to prevent than to fix.
Step 5 — confirm, then wire
Only after sample inspection and a written MOQ + model-mix quote should a first container be wired. The wholesale page is the RFQ start, not the commitment. Send your intended market, the models you want to sample, and your target mix, and let the quote come back tied to real numbers.
The mistakes first-time importers make
The first is wiring on a MOQ they never tied to a model list. The second is skipping the sample and discovering a build issue after the container is at sea. The third is mixing models whose documentation does not reconcile — a packing list that names models the invoice does not. All three are preventable with the sequence above: sample, confirm MOQ against your mix, reconcile the document pack, then wire. None of these steps costs more than the delay of a held container.
What “model mix” really buys you
A mixed container is not just variety for its own sake. It lets one shipment answer three different buyers — the paddock parent, the trail rider, the low-noise property owner — so your stock turns instead of sitting. That is why the wholesale page leads with model mix rather than a single-SKU deal: the factory expects you to arrive with a plan, and the plan is what makes the container sellable on arrival.
Why the first container is a plan, not a purchase
The wholesale page exists because FCDC Motor expects a planned order, not a blind wire. A first container built from a sample, a written MOQ, a reconciled document pack and a confirmed model mix is a plan you can defend to a bank, a broker and a buyer. A container built from a screenshot of a price is a gamble. The five steps above are not bureaucracy; they are the difference between a shipment that sells on arrival and one that sits. Treat the page as the start of that plan, and the first container becomes the template for the second.
A note on timing: the sample step is not lost time, it is the part of the plan that pays for the rest. A container booked on a sample you have inspected carries none of the guesswork a blind order does, and the document pack you reconciled at sample stage is the same one that clears the border later. The wholesale page’s model-mix and MOQ framing only works because the factory assumes you arrived with a plan; the sample is how you earn the right to that assumption.
