On Shelves

I was writing an e-mail a few minutes ago and I wanted to tell my friend that we have a lot of chinese products being sold in Brazil. Could have I said "We have a lot of chinese products on shelves here in Brazil?".

On Shelves = On the market?

Hi Lulla,

If 'we' means, 'we Brazilians', you may say, 'We have a lot of Chinese products in our stores', or, 'We sell a lot of Chinese products.'

If you are part of a group that owns, or works in, a store, you may say, 'We have a lot of Chinese products on our shelves'.

Dear friends,

We may also perhaps say «There are a lot of Chinese products on the shelves here in Brazil».

It is the shelves in shops.
