I work with founders, brands, and global teams who need a trusted India-based sourcing partner - someone who can own supplier discovery, communication, follow-ups, and execution while providing clear inputs for commercial decision-making. I am not a broker or a list provider. I work as an embedded sourcing and operations partner, supporting clients from early product research through supplier coordination, costing, logistics, and scale readiness. My experience spans product sourcing, vendor management, market research, import–export support, and supply chain coordination, with a strong focus on India as a manufacturing base. --- 🔍 When Clients Typically Engage Me Clients usually bring me in when: • they want to source from India but need a reliable local partner • supplier communication and follow-ups are slowing decisions • they need verified manufacturers, not middlemen • cost, MOQ, and quality trade-offs are unclear • importing involves logistics or compliance uncertainty • founders want execution support alongside research --- 🧩 How I Add Value 🛠️ 1. Product Sourcing (End-to-End Support) I work as part of your team and manage the sourcing workflow. • product and supplier research across Asia • manufacturer and supplier shortlisting • price, MOQ, lead time, and capability comparison • supplier communication, follow-ups, and coordination • sample development and iteration support • documentation for internal decision-making My role is to reduce friction and ambiguity in sourcing decisions. --- 🏭 2. Vendor & Manufacturing Coordination • manufacturer verification and capability checks • coordination across multiple vendors • production follow-ups and timeline tracking • issue resolution and expectation alignment • packaging and customization coordination --- 🌍 3. Import–Export & Trade Support • import/export feasibility support • HS code and documentation guidance • coordination with freight forwarders • shipment readiness and logistics alignment • cost visibility before shipment --- 📊 4. Market Research & Product Validation • market and competitor research • pricing and benchmark analysis • supplier ecosystem mapping • feasibility and margin thinking • structured insights, not raw data --- 🧠 5. E-commerce & Business Support I frequently work with e-commerce and D2C brands, supporting: • product selection and validation • sourcing strategy for scale • supplier consolidation • cost optimization thinking • long-term vendor relationships --- ⚙️ How I Work • clear scope and deliverables • structured communication and updates • proactive follow-ups with suppliers • practical, execution-first approach • long-term partnership mindset If you are looking for one-off supplier lists, I may not be the right fit. If you want a reliable sourcing partner who can think and execute with you, I would be happy to connect. --- 🤝 Who I Work Best With • founders and entrepreneurs • e-commerce and D2C brands • importers and sourcing teams • startups exploring India manufacturing • businesses scaling production
