What I’ve learned is as follows: A verified or unverified “manufacturer” are the actual factory that produces the product. A verified or unverified “supplier/trading company” are the middle men (aka a “sales role”) to the actual factories and assigns/farms out your purchase to a specific factory based on negotiated price and I’m sure other factors are considered. In my case, I think I was assigned the 3rd-rate factory because the supplier said he “received too many orders and needed to ensure on time delivery” as per Alibaba’s delivery guarantee. Unfortunately, I’m not sure which manufacturer was assigned my purchase and the supplier did not offer up that information.
