Pet Products Sourcing

The UK pet care market is worth over £9 billion and growing. British brands sourcing collars, beds, toys, grooming tools, and smart pet tech direct from China keep margins that make the numbers work.

Everything UK pet brands and retailers ask us about sourcing pet accessories from China.
Yes — when you're sourcing from audited, export-grade manufacturers. China produces the majority of the world's pet accessories, including for major UK and European brands. The key is factory vetting and pre-shipment QC, which is exactly what Epic Sourcing handles for you.
Pet accessories sold in the UK must comply with REACH chemical regulations — particularly important for items containing dyes, coatings, or rubber. Pet toys may also need to meet EN71 toy safety standards. Smart pet tech requires RoHS certification. Our team manages compliance documentation for every product we source.
It varies by product and factory. Standard collars and leads often start at 200–500 units per SKU. Custom-printed or private label products typically start from 300–500 units. Pet beds and larger items may start at 100–200 units. We negotiate MOQs on your behalf and work with factories that suit the scale of your brand.
