Process

From brief to quotation.

Sourcing goes wrong in predictable places: a brief too vague to quote against, an introduction to a manufacturer who does not actually make that product, an MOQ that only surfaces after three weeks of email. The process below is built around those failures.

For buyers

  1. 01

    Send your brief

    A structured form rather than a blank contact box, because the same four or five facts decide whether a requirement is quotable.

  2. 02

    Screening

    We read it and check it against what we can serve. Where the brief leaves something open, the first reply is a question.

  3. 03

    Routes identified

    We identify the Italian manufacturers that fit the specification, volume and market you described, and check them against it.

  4. 04

    Deal coordinated

    Introductions, quotations and samples coordinated, with the commercial follow-up handled rather than left to chase itself.

Send your sourcing brief

For Italian manufacturers

  1. 01

    Application

    Two minutes: what you make, at what capacity, and where you already sell.

  2. 02

    Market assessment

    Which export markets and channels have a realistic chance for your product, and which do not.

  3. 03

    Buyer search

    Importers, distributors and industrial buyers identified and approached with your product in their terms.

  4. 04

    Introductions

    First meetings, samples, quotations and negotiation followed through to an order.

What we ask for

Product and specification, the market it is going into, an idea of volume, and your timing. An estimate is more useful than a blank, and a blank is more useful than a number you do not believe.

What we do not promise

We do not quote a response time we have not tested, publish a supplier count, or describe a manufacturer as verified before we have the documents to say so. Those claims are cheap to write and expensive to be wrong about.
