Manufacturer-Direct Wholesale

Wholesale & B2B — Inflatable Goals, Markers, Field Lighting

We're TAY Sports — manufacturer of the Rigid Air Technology (RAT) used in this line of portable training equipment. We ship to two buyer profiles globally: North American institutional buyers (school districts, clubs, parks, camps — from our US warehouse) and international distributors / large buyers (Europe, Middle East, Asia, Latin America, Africa — sea freight from China).

Why Manufacturer-Direct

40-55% lower per-unit cost

Vs. retail catalog or specialty distributor pricing. Same goal at the same build quality, without two layers of retail markup.

Compliance documentation

CE / EN 16579 (EU), BS:8462:2005 (UK / Commonwealth), W-9 + COI + MSDS (US). Provided as a single PDF within 1-2 business days.

16 years manufacturing

Operating since 2010 from Shaoxing, China. Existing distributor relationships in 30+ countries. Stable production capacity, not a trading company.

Two shipping models

US warehouse LTL for North American buyers (5-10 days). FOB Ningbo / Shanghai sea freight for international buyers (25-45 days), with DDP option.

International Buyers — Sea Freight / Container Orders

For buyers in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and Latin America, we ship FOB Ningbo or Shanghai by container. Most distributors mix products in a single 20ft or 40ft container (goals + markers + lighting), which we coordinate end-to-end.

🇪🇺 Europe

CE marking + EN 16579 soccer goal safety standard. Container shipping to Hamburg / Rotterdam / Antwerp / Felixstowe. Existing customers in UK, Germany, France, Netherlands, Spain.

🌍 Middle East & Africa

Containers to Jebel Ali, Dammam, Beirut, Lagos, Mombasa, Cape Town, Casablanca. Heat-resistant TPU fabric tested to 50°C+ sustained exposure. Some buyers ask about national federation supply — we work with sporting equipment importers, not directly with federations.

🌏 Asia (ex-China)

Containers to Tokyo / Yokohama, Busan, Singapore, Port Klang, Mumbai, Chennai, Ho Chi Minh, Manila. Common for cricket / hockey / multi-sport academies as well as soccer.

🌎 Latin America

Containers to Santos, Buenos Aires, Callao, Veracruz, Manzanillo. Spanish-language packaging and instructions available. Common buyer profile: municipal sports programs and private club networks.

Sea-freight MOQ is approximately 1 × 20ft container (200-400 goals or 500+ markers, depending on product mix). Air freight available for urgent smaller shipments at significantly higher per-unit cost. OEM / private-label at 100+ unit minimums — your brand on packaging, manual, and goal frame.

Pricing

Bulk pricing scales by quantity, product mix, and destination. North American buyers get LTL-from-US-warehouse pricing; international buyers get FOB China sea-freight pricing (materially lower at container volume).

We don't publish tier tables publicly — every project has different mix, destination, certification needs, and timing. Email us your project details and we'll send a quote tailored to your spec within 1-2 business days.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the minimum order quantity for bulk pricing?

Bulk tier pricing starts at 4 units for North American buyers (US warehouse). For international sea-freight orders, MOQ is 1 × 20ft container (roughly 200-400 goals depending on size mix) or 500 units of markers, with mixed-product containers supported.

Do you ship internationally? Europe, Asia, Africa, Middle East, Latin America?

Yes. We ship to 30+ countries on container-level sea freight. North American buyers get LTL from our US warehouse; international buyers get FOB Ningbo / Shanghai (China) or DDP options on request. Lead time for sea freight is typically 25-45 days port-to-port + production for non-stock SKUs.

Do you provide CE / EN 16579 / BS:8462 compliance documentation?

Yes — all three. CE marking + EN 16579 (European soccer goal safety standard) is available for EU buyers. BS:8462:2005 attestation is included for UK / Commonwealth markets. For North American buyers we also provide the 7-item documentation package: W-9, Certificate of Insurance, BS:8462 attestation, MSDS, warranty terms, return policy, and freight terms.

Can we get custom colors or our club / federation logo on the goals?

Yes, at 50+ unit orders. Setup fees for custom color or logo printing run $200-$500 one-time, then add roughly $15-$25 per unit production cost. National federations, large clubs, and tournament series typically use this — single-club orders often stick with standard colors as the more cost-effective option.

Can we get net-30 invoice terms?

Yes, for established institutional buyers (US/Canadian school districts, registered nonprofits, government parks departments). For first-time orders with smaller buyer volume, we sometimes request prepay or 50/50 prepay/balance on the initial PO; net-30 becomes standard on subsequent orders. For international buyers, payment terms are typically 30% deposit / 70% before shipment, with letter-of-credit options for larger orders.

How long does delivery take?

North American buyers (US warehouse, in-stock SKUs): 5-10 business days from PO acceptance. International sea freight: 25-45 days port-to-port plus production lead time for non-stock SKUs (4-6 weeks). Air freight is available for urgent international orders at significantly higher cost.

Do you offer OEM / private-label / distributor agreements?

Yes. We work with distributors and resellers across Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and parts of Asia. OEM with your brand on packaging, manual, and goal frame is supported at 100+ unit minimums. Exclusive territory agreements available for distributors with a credible order pipeline and existing channel.

Do you have a procurement guide we can send to our team?

Yes. Our written procurement guide covers the 3 procurement paths (retail vs distributor vs manufacturer-direct), tier pricing structure, the 7-item documentation package, a sample RFP spec sheet, net-30 workflow, and 5-year ROI math. Available as a web article — contact us if you need a PDF version for distribution.
