Save money on DHGate

Film and television productions frequently need large quantities of specific items at low cost: wardrobe multiples for stunt sequences or continuity backups, set dressing props bought in bulk, costume accessories and decorative elements, crew supplies, and equipment accessories that need to be purchased in quantity within a tight budget. DHGate is a major cross-border e-commerce platform that connects buyers directly with Chinese manufacturers and wholesalers, offering access to a wide range of products at wholesale-level pricing for lower minimum order quantities than traditional wholesale channels require.

For productions sourcing wardrobe multiples, DHGate is particularly practical. A fight scene that requires six identical shirts for continuity and stunt sequences can be sourced at a fraction of retail cost when ordered directly from a manufacturer. Costume departments on productions where items will be destroyed or heavily used can budget significantly more latitude when sourcing from wholesale channels rather than retail.

Set decoration and props departments use DHGate for bulk decoration elements: picture frames, tableware, decorative objects, and dressing items that fill a background space but do not need to be sourced from specialty prop houses. For productions dressing period or themed sets, DHGate's broad catalog provides options that specialty retailers may not carry or may price prohibitively for background dressing use.

Production consumables including craft services supplies, office materials, and set construction materials can be sourced in bulk at reduced cost through DHGate when lead time allows. For productions with extended pre-production periods, the longer shipping windows from international suppliers can align with the production timeline for non-urgent supply needs.

As a Saturation partner, DHGate offers a discount through the perks program for production companies and independent filmmakers with bulk purchasing needs for production supplies.
