Nucleo Agency

Manufacturer sourcing in Italy.

For buyers who know the product, not the counterparty. Searching from outside Italy surfaces whoever ranks highest, which is a poor proxy for whoever fits.

What the work involves

Scope varies by engagement, and is agreed in writing before it starts.

  • Supplier and manufacturer research
  • Market mapping around the requirement
  • Screening of potential counterparties against the brief
  • Commercial introductions to the people who decide
  • Coordination of RFQs, quotations and samples
  • Commercial follow-up and negotiation support

What screening means here

Whether a manufacturer makes that product, works at that volume, holds the certifications you need, serves your market, and wants the business. Checked against documents where they exist. We do not call a manufacturer audited unless an audit has taken place.

Common questions

How is this different from finding manufacturers myself?

It may not be, if you have the language, the contacts and the time to work a shortlist. What buyers usually pay for is the part after the list: reaching the right person, getting a substantive answer, and keeping the conversation moving.

Do you work exclusively for the buyer?

Engagements are agreed in writing, including who Nucleo is acting for. Ask before you start and it will be in the terms.

One brief is enough to start. We read it before we reply.
