Included with Premium+
No per-search fees and no commission on supplier introductions. Submit as many sourcing requests as your Premium+ access allows — up to three active at a time, with no cap on the total over the life of your access period.
EU, UK & North America coverage
Verified wholesalers, liquidators, and dropshippers drawn from our directory of 30,800+ indexed companies plus our research network's foreign-market contacts.
48-hour first response
You'll see your request move from Pending → Processing within 48 hours. Most matched-supplier reports land in your dashboard within three working days.
You stay in control
We surface the matched suppliers in your dashboard with full contact details. You decide which ones to message and on what terms — no broker layer, no commission on transactions.
What you get

A complete supplier-match report — not a list of links.

Every Custom Sourcing report includes the same six elements, prepared by our research team and translated to English where the source supplier writes in another language.

Verified supplier matches

Up to five supplier matches per request, drawn from our verified directory and our research network's foreign-market contacts. Where we find more than five, you receive the full set at no extra charge.

Read the FAQ

Full contact details

Company name, registered address, head office, warehouses, branches, phone numbers, email addresses, and web/social links — everything you need to open a conversation directly.

Quoted prices with quantity tiers

Where the supplier shares them: per-unit pricing across the quantity bands relevant to your target volume, plus any threshold pricing breaks.

Technical specifications

Product specs aligned to your request: condition grade, packaging, certifications (CE, FDA, REACH), brand-authorization status where relevant, and material composition.

Condition grades

Terms & conditions

Payment terms, MOQ, lead time, Incoterms, sample availability, and return/replacement policy — translated to English where the source supplier writes in another language.

In-app conversations

Once you've picked a match, open a Premium+ messaging thread with the supplier directly from your dashboard. Attachments, templates, and read receipts — no external email shuffle.

How it works

From request to matched suppliers in days, not weeks.

Four simple steps. No phone calls, no paid intake, no broker layer between you and the supplier.

1

Submit your request

In your dashboard, fill out the request form: product name, brand if any, category, source countries, target price, quantity, condition grade, special requirements (dropshipping, white-label, custom packaging, organic/eco), and any specifications.

2

We research

Status flips to Processing. Our team works our verified directory plus international research sources — foreign-market specialists, industry databases, and personal contacts — to find suppliers matching your specification.

3

You get a matched-supplier report

Status flips to Processed. Up to five supplier matches with full contact details, quoted prices, terms, and specifications land in your dashboard. Every report is in English; supplier-language documents are translated where needed.

4

Open a conversation

Pick the matches you like and start an in-app conversation directly with the supplier. Negotiate terms, request samples, place a trial order — entirely without commission, broker fees, or platform takes.

Who this is for

Built for buyers who want time back.

Custom Sourcing is at its best when you know what you want and need an experienced research team to find verified suppliers fast.

New sellers without a sourcing network

You're starting out and don't yet have direct relationships with wholesalers in your category. Custom Sourcing replaces dozens of cold-outreach emails with a 48-hour matched report you can act on immediately.

Operators expanding into a new category

You're already trading in one vertical and want to add a second — say, beauty alongside fashion. We pull verified suppliers in the new category so you don't restart the discovery cycle from zero.

Retailers chasing a specific brand or product

You need a verified channel for a specific brand. We surface authorized distributors, parallel-import specialists, and stock channels matched to your authentic-supply requirements.

Cross-border buyers without language coverage

Sourcing in a language you don't speak? We translate the supplier's terms, specifications, and quotes into English in the report — at no extra charge, with no language barrier between you and a deal.

Time-poor buyers who want a curated shortlist

Your time is better spent negotiating than searching. Our team narrows thousands of options to the five best matches for your specification, so you can move from research to procurement in days rather than weeks.

Premium+ members already on the platform

You're already paying for Premium+ — Custom Sourcing is included. Use it as part of your buying rhythm: one to three active requests at a time, no per-search fee, no cap on the total over the life of your Premium+ access.
