I help companies build reliable supply chains—not just find suppliers.
I am a Vietnam-based Supply Chain & Sourcing Manager with over 10 years of experience supporting international companies across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. My expertise covers the complete supply chain process—from supplier sourcing and procurement to production, quality control, logistics, and final delivery.
Unlike many sourcing agents who simply provide supplier lists, I work as an extension of your team. I evaluate suppliers, manage execution, solve problems, and ensure your products are delivered on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards.

Industries I have worked with
Throughout my career, I have successfully sourced and managed suppliers across a wide range of industries, including:
• CNC machining
• Precision metal parts
• Castings
• Plastic injection molding
• Rubber components
• Composite materials
• Furniture
• Packaging
• Apparel and footwear
• Industrial equipment
• Consumer products
• Beauty packaging
• Food ingredients
• Agricultural products
• Chemicals
This broad manufacturing background allows me to quickly understand technical requirements and identify the right suppliers for different industries.
My working approach
I don't believe in sending random supplier lists.
Every supplier recommendation is evaluated based on your specific requirements, including:
• Technical capability
• Manufacturing experience
• Production capacity
• Cost competitiveness
• MOQ
• Lead time
• Quality systems
• Export capability
• Communication responsiveness
• Long-term reliability
Before recommending a supplier, I ask questions such as:
Is this a genuine manufacturer or merely a trading company?
Does the factory have proven experience producing similar products?
Can they realistically achieve the target cost without sacrificing quality?
Are the quoted lead times achievable?
What risks might affect sampling, production, quality, or delivery?
Will this supplier still be reliable when your business scales?
My objective is not simply to help you place an order, but to help you build a dependable and scalable supply chain.
Why clients work with me
✔ 10+ years of international purchasing and supply chain experience
✔ Strong supplier network across Vietnam and Asia
✔ Fluent English communication with overseas clients and manufacturers
✔ Hands-on factory visits and supplier verification
✔ Strong commercial negotiation and cost analysis
✔ Practical understanding of manufacturing processes
✔ Experience managing international projects from RFQ through mass production
✔ Proactive communication with clear, timely updates
✔ Detail-oriented, reliable, and committed to long-term partnerships
Whether you need someone to source new suppliers, manage purchase orders, coordinate production, resolve supplier issues, or oversee your supply chain operations in Vietnam, I can become a reliable extension of your team and help ensure your business runs smoothly.
Let's discuss your project and build a supply chain that supports your long-term growth.

Dear future partner,
Greetings from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. My name is Thuan (Tiffany) and I would like to connect with you for potential trade development opportunities in Vietnam.
I had quite a while working on trade projects between Vietnam and the U.S. And now I would like to become a freelancer to provide product/factory sourcing and trade consultancy services for the Vietnam market.
With the trade conflicts between the US and China these years under Trump's administration (which are not gonna go away soon), and with the dramatic increase in labour cost, serious environmental issues.... in China, China becomes less potential to be a long term and steady trade partner. There are many factories are moving to Vietnam and more and more products are sourcing from Vietnam which is considered a reliable country of origin. I think you are keeping an eye on Vietnam and would like to establish a sourcing agent and market entry advice, hand on hand services from import of materials into to export products out of Vietnam. I would like to be your sourcing agent and trade consultant on any type of product from Vietnam.
I had 3 years working with a U.S-owned trade consulting firm with trade projects between the US and Vietnam and 6 years working in import procurement, logistics and shipping field.
I tooks responsibilities for key new business development projects involving management of imports for processing for export of American ginseng that is processed and packaged in Vietnam for export to China, for distribution via e-commerce channels. I have also played a key role with an SME development project involving a new B2B projected supported by the Asian Development Bank in Vietnam. From 2018-2019, I involved as Project Manager for an international technical assistance program for Vietnam provided by the Global Alliance for Trade Facilitation, involving work with numerous Vietnamese government ministries and agencies in Ha Noi that regulate imports and exports in Vietnam. This program also involves working with private sector business associations and enterprises in Vietnam, in a public consultations program. The Global Alliance consists of the World Economic Forum, the International Chamber of Commerce and, the Center for International Private Enterprise and is supported by the governments of Australia, Canada, Germany, the U.K. and the U.S. It provides the Government of Vietnam with technical assistance in implementing commitments of the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement.
At the moment, I am doing Procurement and Logistics for a major solar energy contractor coming from Malaysia.
If you are interested in developing services with Vietnam, please let me know. I would like to support that idea as I am also fascinated by it.
Thank you and look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Tiffany
