Manufacturer Representation

You manufacture. We help you enter and develop the Spanish and European market.

SGI commercially represents manufacturers — primarily in China, with declared coverage in Vietnam, India, Turkey, Morocco and the UAE — to qualified European buyers: active business development, not just one-off introductions, with no European office required.

Why work with SGI

Six reasons that go beyond a single order.

Active business development

We don't just introduce you to buyers already on file: we actively generate new opportunities in your sector.

Real European buyers

Access to active projects, not speculative inquiries with no intent to purchase.

One single point of contact

A team that understands your production process and how you negotiate.

Guided regulatory adaptation

We help you prepare your product for European regulation before production is committed.

Clear terms, non-exclusive by default

Transparent payment and contract terms; exclusivity is negotiated only once both sides already know the market.

No European office required

We represent you commercially without you having to open a European office.

How it works

From initial introduction to your first buyer.

01

Requirements

What we look for in a verified supplier.

We don't look for the lowest price — we look for manufacturers with real capacity and a willingness to be transparent.

Demonstrable export capacity, with valid licenses.
Willingness to undergo an on-site technical and quality audit.
Ability to adapt the product to applicable European regulation (CE, RoHS or other category-specific rules) when the product requires it.
A minimum documented quality control system.
Fluent English communication, or willingness to work with our team as a language bridge.

Frequently asked questions

Before you submit your factory

Is the representation exclusive?

Not by default. We recommend starting non-exclusively, with a 6-month review clause once real demand is validated — exclusivity is negotiated case by case, once both sides know the market's real level of activity.

What happens if SGI doesn't generate sales in the first few months?

The representation agreement is reviewed at 6 months. While there's no closed sale, there's no fixed cost for the manufacturer under the commission model — SGI's incentive is aligned with yours from day one.

Is there a cost to register as a verified supplier?

The collaboration model is defined case by case, depending on the project and service scope — commission on closed sales, a market-entry fee, or a combination. Contact us and we'll explain transparently the terms that apply to your factory; see also our Plans.

What kind of buyers does SGI work with?

European companies across the sectors we cover — food, industrial, healthcare, home goods, construction, automotive and retail — from SMEs to industrial groups with recurring purchases.

What certifications do I need to export to Europe?

It depends on your product and sector. We guide you on applicable European regulation (CE, RoHS, or other category-specific requirements) during the verification process itself.

What language does the SGI team communicate in?

We work in English and Spanish. We act as a bridge if you and the European buyer don't share a common negotiating language.

How long does the supplier verification process take?

Usually between 5 and 10 business days from initial introduction to joining our network, depending on product complexity.
