My first visit to wholesale market for manzeal.com
I have been to Manish Market several times with my cousin with a motive to understand business of Chinese Electronic Products. This was for the first time I visited for Manzeal.
If you go to Manish Market, every time you will find different types of fancy products which are all from China. Regular products available there are Mosquito Killing Rackets, MP3 Players, Digital Displays, LCD Screens, Fancy Lights, Crockery & bone china items, etc. On the way to Manish Market, you will find a market for Hardware & other electrical products known as the Lauhar Chawl. (I will discuss about it in detail in another blog post) Other products you will find there are Air Pillows, toys, Mobile Phones, Mobile phone accessories like battery, handsfree, bluetooth doggle, bluetooth ear piece, memory card, cover, screen guard and many other fancy products which you may have not seen before.
This market is only a wholesale market. If the people in this market gauge that you are retail customer, they tend to offer you a retail price. So, only retailers who buy in bulk get a better deal. Since I was with my cousin, who happens to be trading in Chinese Products, I could learn many a things about the price of such products. Chinese Cell Phone ranges between Rs. 1500 – Rs. 3000, with IMEI number, Mp3 player with memory card slot expandable upto 4 GB and no inbuilt memory ranges between Rs. 165 – 180, depending upon the quantity and bargaining skill you have. We bought 20 such Mp3 players @ Rs. 165 each. This Mp3 Players are sold at Rs. 300 – 450 on various e-commerce portals. Market price of Memory Cards (SD, Micro SD, etc.) is as good as oil & sugar prices, it keeps on fluctuating daily. Currently 2GB Micro SD card is available at Rs. 220. And yes, all these products are available at drastically low prices; but again, it does not carry any guarantee or warranty.
Lot of other things to know there. Here’s the secret of Manish Market. Manish Market (the building) itself is a retail market. The actual wholesale market is behind the building where dealers sit in open space or in a store made of thick plastic, the temporary stores. They just have a table and a wireless landline phone or a cell phone for communicating with other dealers. They have a common godown, where all the dealers store their products.
The market is very dynamic and the most important part is that you should have a good negotiation skill or else they may easily cheat you.
Reaching Manish Market:
The nearest station on Western Railway is Marine Lines. From Marine Lines it is approximately a 15 minutes walk. Walking is more suitable rather than going by Cab as one can also find various other markets on the way to Manish Market.
For more details about the market you can get in touch with me.

hey hii im Amit im planning to take Ephone or E71 china phone are there any side effects i mean baad effects of this cell well as far as i am concerned i m a well phone handler i handle my phone with great care sO wht do u think till how much period of time this china phone will endure in my life?
please reply im daMn doubtly abt such phones coz i have never used it?
Hi Amit. Let me tell you that I was personally using China Phone no doubt they are good phones but there are certain problems associated with it. Like poor sound quality, poor camera quality, less features, poor battery backup, etc. etc. These phones generally have good life say about 1 – 2 years.
Considering the price of the phone these phones are not bad. But I would not prefer buying such phones again as i feel that it may create hearing problems in future if you use this phone for longer time, as sometimes I realised that ears pain if you use this phone for more than 20 – 30 mins at a stretch.

Dear Sir,
I stay in Mumbai.
I am selling mobile phones online & I am getting tough competition from South Indian online players.
My purchases are normally retail. Say upto 300 mobiles per month as per orders with average approximate turnover upto 10 Lakhs per month. But I buy single-single.
This is my side-business, but I want to make it full-time.
Please advise me if you have contacts of some good dealers in Manish Market who sell original products in petty packed (Sealed) boxes.
Please mail me sir, urgently. I can even provide you flat 15% Net commission on every product & I can give you in writing too.
Now a days I am receiving orders from some big online players & you might be knowing that the administrative cost for placing offers on these sites are also very high. hence I promise to provide you flat 15% net comission. If your dealers prices are really low, then I can even increase the comission percentage, such that it will also profitise me a lot.
I am not mentioning here my mobile no., since I dont want any spammers to contact me.
Please mail me your kind reply, so that I will personally contact you or will meet you.
Regards,
Anil
@sunil Its good that you have contacts in China. It would be really helpful in sourcing goods. Anyway I have sent you email. Do check it. You can call me on the contact number provided in email…

I am from orissa,I want to purchase wholesale office stationary & student related item for business purpose.
Please give suitable advice to start in minimum amount.
Thanks & Regards
Dear Dipti,
Glad to know that you are starting office stationary & student related items business. Since I am not very close to this business I cannot comment more about this. The business is good with good margins, ofcourse it may have some challenges. Also I don’t know much about Orissa and hence I cannot say much about it. If you would like to source products from Mumbai read this article describing wholesale market for Stationary in Mumbai, Abdul Rehman Street: http://manzeal.com/abdul-rehman-street-mumbai-wholesale-market-for-stationery/
Thanks & Regards
Samir

Hi,
I want to know the whole sell rate of “wealth cats” soon..
Thanx..
Hi Pooja,
I don’t have information on “wealth cats”. If I come across I will write back.
I am eagerly waiting for your blog regarding Wholesale Computer & Computer Peripherals market is at Lamington Road, Grand Road in Mumbai.
I am sure many are interested in this topic too.
i live in navi mumbai, i am interested in buying a laptop ,How much price difference can i expect if i buy at lamington road ?
Thanks for the great post … keep up the good work.
Anand,
I will write on Lamington Road very soon. Since I am little busy with lot of work I cannot make it up. I will surely do it soon. Let me know how many laptops you are going to buy.
Buying a PC from Lamington Road would save you Rs. 1500 – Rs. 2000. They will only assemble the system and you need to install OS & other required software. And I think laptop must be available in similar discount price.
Dear samir
How can go to liminton road please guide me
