Making the deal

Most importers go to big shows and buy from fancy showrooms. Believe me, where we end up going to meet factory owners is not at the Radisson. But to get to the sources, you have to "belly up to the bar". You have to undertake every buying trip as a journey of a lifetime. So what if you lose a few pounds. So what if you are on antibiotics for a couple of months. So what if you and the toilet become best friends after your return.

It really is an adventure. But, it is not for the faint of heart. So if you ever want to expand your sourcing to be international, let us give you a hand and guide you through it. We actually have an office in Delhi and ship containers full of one thing or another frequently.

Squatting down in a third floor "office" and negotiating sterling silver jewelry or semi-precious stones while sipping on a luke warm "Thumbs Up" cola...Now that's the way to do business. And if you've got the volume, we can take you there.
