Is supplier same as manufacturer

A supplier and a manufacturer are not the same entity. A manufacturer is a company that produces goods or parts, while a supplier is a company that provides goods or services to other businesses, which may include the products made by manufacturers.

Taking Ruisheng Machinery as an example, Ruisheng Machinery is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the production of stone machinery and equipment  and diamond saw blade matrix. This means that Ruisheng Machinery is both a manufacturer, as it produces its own products, and at the same time can be considered a supplier, as it supplies these products directly to the market. The products of Ruisheng machinery are not only best-selling in the domestic market, but also exported to more than 30 countries and regions in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe and the United States, which shows its wide range of business as a supplier. Therefore, it can be seen that Ruisheng machinery in some cases assumes the role of both manufacturer and supplier.
