We find products and manufacturers that fit your current catalogue.
You already import actively and want to expand your catalogue, diversify origin, or find a verified alternative to a current supplier. We work to the same verification standard as any other SGI line.
The risks of growing with a single supplier.
Depending on a single supplier for an entire line of your catalogue.
A best-selling product your current supplier can no longer scale.
Margins getting squeezed because you have no alternative to negotiate against.
New categories you'd like to add, with no internal time to research the origin market.
A supplier raising price or terms knowing you have no plan B.
Four ways to expand your catalogue with backing.
Find a new product
We identify manufacturers for categories you want to add to your catalogue.
Verify a second source
We audit an alternative manufacturer for a product you already import.
Renegotiate with backing
Real market comparables to renegotiate with your current supplier.
Scale without losing control
Production-capacity verification before committing to a larger volume.
Categories where we typically help expand a catalogue.
Before you start
I already import actively — how is this different from Sourcing & Trading?
Sourcing & Trading walks you through your very first supplier search. This line is for when you already import and want to expand your catalogue, diversify origin, or find a verified alternative to a current supplier — the starting point is different, the verification standard is the same.
Do you work from a catalogue I already have in mind, or do you propose new products?
Both. We can search for exactly what you already have in mind, or propose manufacturers and products that fit your current catalogue that you may not know about yet.
Can I request a second source for a product I already import?
Yes — it's one of the most common requests: verifying an alternative manufacturer so you're not dependent on a single supplier, without having to break the current relationship.
How do you protect my commercial relationship with the manufacturer you introduce?
You keep the relationship and payment terms directly with the manufacturer; SGI charges service fees for the search, verification and negotiation, not a hidden margin on the goods.
