Sourcing and procurement
Source from India through a process you can follow step by step.
From a defined requirement to a verified shortlist, a commercial comparison and production follow-up: IndiAndes keeps every decision documented and actionable.
Discuss a sourcing requirement
This service is designed for importers, hotel groups, retailers, distributors, institutions, and industrial companies seeking Indian suppliers without building their own sourcing operation in India.
A cheap quotation does not say whether the supplier manufactures, can produce your volume, will meet the specification, or will respond when something goes wrong. The usual failures are supplier identity, real capacity, quality control and follow-up.
What you receive
Typical initial supplier search: two to four weeks after receiving a sufficiently detailed brief. Timelines vary by product complexity and supplier responsiveness.
Supplier research from US$900. A managed sourcing project from US$2,500 or an agreed commission on the order value. The model is defined in writing before work begins.
We can buy on your behalf or support your own purchasing process. We agree which of the two it is, in writing, before anything is ordered.
A typical initial supplier search takes two to four weeks after we receive a sufficiently detailed brief. Timelines vary with product complexity and supplier responsiveness, and quotation rounds, samples and approvals extend the schedule beyond that first shortlist.
Supplier research starts at US$900. A managed sourcing project starts at US$2,500, or can be structured as an agreed commission on the order value. Whichever model applies is defined in writing before work begins.
The buyer. Our fee is agreed with you in writing before work begins, so a recommendation never depends on which supplier is willing to pay us more.
Often yes. What matters is whether the product has an identifiable manufacturing base in India and whether the specification can be defined clearly enough to quote against. We will say so directly if a category sits outside what we can cover well.
It varies by category and by factory. Minimums are established during the quotation round and appear side by side in the comparison matrix, so you can see which suppliers fit your volume before investing time in samples.
Share the product, market, supplier, or commercial objective. We will help define a practical scope.
