That's right. You should also consider if he or she sells good products which are not fake. Check that too.

Another thing you should consider when looking for a supplyer is the quality and cost of supply. Like here in Delta state most business owners usually opt for Onitsha to get their goods due to the fact that it's cheaper there.

I'll go for a supplier which is trustworthy, offers quality products at a reasonable price.
It is very necessary to go for a supplier that is trustworthy and that also sells good products. It is also important to go for suppliers who know how to handle and satisfy their customers

These are so on point,in addition to that, I think the reputation of the supplier is also very crucial, people's reviews about him, would go a long way to determine if you should transact with the said supplier

When looking for a supplier for my business, I think the most important factor for me to consider is reliability. I want to make sure that the supplier can provide consistent quality and timely delivery of the products I need, so I can be sure that my customers will be happy. Additionally, I want to look for a supplier that is willing to work within my budget and one that is willing to negotiate terms and prices if needed. Finally, I want to make sure the supplier is trustworthy, so I can be sure that my sensitive information and payment details are safe.

You are right that the reputation of the supplier is very important. If a supplier's reputation is good his customers will even refer other people to buy from him

One factor is honesty. If the supplier is honest by not delaying the delivery for it gives bad impact to sales and bad impact to giving of trust for a second chance.

As much as possible the supplier must be a direct producer and not a trader or just a middle man. That way you are guaranteed of lower price. The supplier must be located near your. business to save on freight costs. It actually also depends on the type of business.

Should consider many factors as supplier must be honest, his previous record must be clear he must supply on time. Must be dedicated hard worker. Must be polite and gentle as while we interact with him we must not feel any problem.
