Short answer

Before choosing a container house supplier, importers must verify company registration and export licence, request references and a sample or pilot order, confirm drawing capability and warranty documentation, and agree on payment terms and communication speed. These checks reduce risk and ensure the supplier can deliver compliant, quality units on schedule.
