How to search for brand name products

The SaleHoo Directory makes it simple to search for genuine brand name products from trusted, verified suppliers. Whether you're looking for Nike shoes, Apple accessories, or skincare products from well-known labels, SaleHoo helps you connect with suppliers who stock authentic items — without the risk of counterfeit products.


This guide shows you how to search for brand name products using the latest SaleHoo Directory layout, apply smart filters, and evaluate suppliers who carry recognized brands.



Step 1 – Log in and navigate to the Directory
  • Go to salehoo.com
  • Log into your account
  • In the left-hand menu, click Directory
  • This opens the main Directory dashboard



At the top of the Directory, type in the brand name you're searching for.
For example:

  • “Nike shoes”
  • “Adidas”
  • “Apple accessories”
  • “Reebok”
  • “Canon cameras”


After running your search, you’ll land on the View Products tab by default. This displays product listings from suppliers who carry those brands or brand-related items.
Each product card includes:

  • Product image
  • Price (in USD)
  • Supplier name & country
  • Supplier type (e.g., Dropshipper, Wholesaler)
  • “Inquire” button to contact the supplier



✅ Tip: Only verified suppliers are included in these listings, so you can shop with confidence.


Switch to the “View Suppliers” Tab

To get a broader view of suppliers who carry brand-name products, switch to the “View Suppliers” tab.
This tab shows detailed supplier cards including:

  • Company background
  • List of brands they stock
  • Business type (Wholesaler, Dropshipper, Manufacturer)
  • Minimum order info
  • Tags (e.g., Fast response, US warehouse, Low cost)



🔍 Look for suppliers who explicitly mention the brand you searched for under "Brands Stocked" or in the product description.


Reviewing a Supplier Profile for Brand Authenticity

Clicking on a supplier from the list opens their full profile.
Here’s where you’ll verify:

  • Brands stocked
  • How long they’ve been in business
  • Payment and shipping methods
  • If they allow selling on marketplaces (e.g., Amazon, eBay, Shopify)
  • Return policy and business certifications
  • Contact details and website link



Verified Supplier Badge

Look for the green Verified badge on the supplier profile. This means SaleHoo has manually checked:

  • Company legitimacy
  • Up-to-date contact details
  • Product catalog authenticity
  • Business registration (where applicable)


🔐 Verified = Safe to work with. SaleHoo does the vetting so you don’t have to.


How to Confirm Brand Authenticity

While SaleHoo verifies supplier legitimacy, here’s how to further ensure you're sourcing genuine brand-name products:


Check these sections on the supplier profile:
  • “Brands Stocked” — should clearly list the brand (e.g., Nike, Canon, etc.)
  • Product descriptions — should not include misleading terms like “style” or “replica”
  • Minimum order requirements — large MOQs may be a sign of authorized wholesale
  • Payment methods — look for secure options like PayPal and credit card
  • Return policy — reliable suppliers will offer one


🧠 Note: If in doubt, ask the supplier to confirm they are an authorized distributor for the brand.


How to Message a Supplier About a Brand Product

To start a conversation:

  1. Click the “Inquire” or “Contact Supplier” button
  2. Write a polite, professional message
  3. Ask specifically about:
    • Brand authenticity
    • Source or authorization documents
    • Stock availability
    • MOQ and pricing


Organize and Track Brand Suppliers

You can use the Notes and Tags feature on any supplier profile to:

  • Add a note about their brand offering
  • Tag them as “Brand Supplier,” “Nike,” or similar
  • Save them to your Favorites list


Important: Beware of Counterfeit Products

While all SaleHoo suppliers are vetted, here are some red flags that may indicate unauthentic brand items:

  • Generic or vague product titles
  • “Inspired by,” “style,” or “replica” language
  • Prices that are too good to be true
  • No verifiable company information


If you ever feel unsure, reach out to our support team for help before placing an order.
