Ik Sourcing — 1688 Profit

🏭 SOURCE SMARTER. PROFIT MORE. SHIP WITH CONFIDENCE.

IK Sourcing — 1688 Profit Scanner is a free Chrome extension that helps Amazon sellers, importers and online retailers instantly find cheaper Chinese suppliers for any product they're selling or researching.

Browse Amazon UK or Amazon US, click the extension icon, and within seconds you'll see matching wholesale suppliers from 1688.com (China's largest B2B marketplace) — complete with estimated landed UK costs and profit margin calculations.

No more guessing. No more manual searching. Just clear numbers to help you make faster, smarter sourcing decisions.

🚢 WHO IS THIS FOR?
──────────────────────────────

→ Amazon FBA & FBM sellers looking to cut sourcing costs
→ eBay and Etsy sellers sourcing wholesale stock
→ Independent importers bringing goods from China to the UK
→ Retail arbitrage and online arbitrage buyers
→ Dropshippers validating product margins before committing
→ Anyone tired of paying Alibaba prices when 1688 is cheaper

1688.com is the Chinese-language domestic wholesale platform owned by Alibaba Group. Prices are significantly lower than Alibaba or AliExpress because it's designed for Chinese domestic trade — but navigating it without a sourcing agent can be complex. That's where we come in.
