Depending on the profit margin of business. If I am looking to increase profit, then I would consider doing business with them. 25% seems like great profit margins, so I would at least place one order with them. And see if this supplier can sustain the business. The concerns with this supplier is being out of country, how would the product arrive to the US. And how long would the shipment/order fulfillment take. Since they are coming from such a far distance I would want to know the lead time on the orders. Also, there is a lot of supply chain issues in the US right now with the inbound ports, I would need to consider if I can risk waiting such a long period of time to receive these goods at a discounted price. To address these concerns, I would need to do the research and ask for referral of other customers they have in the US. Talk to their other customers or maybe find online reviews about this company and see if there's issues with their order fulfillment.
