What we do, and what we don’t

Buying from a country you can’t visit every month is mostly a trust problem. So we keep our role simple and visible.

We do

  • Find and compare manufacturers that fit your brief
  • Check company registration, certificates and capacity
  • Negotiate in Turkish and manage samples
  • Visit the factory and inspect goods before loading

We don’t

  • Hide the factory’s name from you
  • Add a secret margin to the factory price
  • Take payment for your goods on our account
  • Recommend a supplier we haven’t checked

How a request turns into an order

  1. Brief

    You describe the product, quantity and destination. We ask the questions a factory will ask, so quotes are comparable.

  2. Shortlist

    Within 7 working days: 3–5 checked suppliers with prices, MOQs, lead times, certificates and our recommendation.

  3. Samples

    We collect samples, check them against your brief and send them to you with notes.

  4. Production

    You order directly from the factory. We follow production and inspect goods before they are loaded.

Industries and where they are made

Türkiye’s manufacturing is organised in regional clusters. Knowing which town makes what is a large part of finding the right factory.

Why buyers look at Türkiye

Close to Europe, inside the EU customs union for industrial goods, and with a deep base of export-ready factories.

Who works on your order

One sourcing lead runs your project from the first brief to the loaded truck, and stays your single point of contact. When a job needs more, we bring in independent specialists we work with.

How we work and how we check suppliers

  • Sourcing lead

    Reads your brief, finds and checks factories, negotiates in Turkish and reports to you. Every message comes from the same person.

  • Quality inspectors

    Independent inspectors for pre-shipment checks and factory audits in other regions.

  • Technical specialists

    Engineers and product specialists for machinery, food safety or materials testing, when your product needs them.

  • Freight and customs

    Forwarders and customs brokers for export documents and transport, or your own forwarder if you have one.

Questions buyers ask first

Are you a trading company or an agent?

We are a sourcing agent. You buy directly from the manufacturer and pay the factory yourself; we find, check and manage suppliers on your behalf. You always know which factory makes your goods.

How do you get paid?

A fixed fee for the supplier shortlist and a commission on orders you place, both agreed in writing before work starts. We do not take hidden margins from factories. See the pricing page for current fees.

How long does it take to get supplier options?

For a clear brief, you receive a shortlist of 3–5 checked suppliers within 7 working days. Complex machinery or custom tooling can take longer; we tell you up front.

What is the minimum order quantity?

It depends on the product and the factory. Many Turkish producers accept smaller runs than large Far East factories, which suits growing brands, but materials can have their own minimums. We show the MOQ of every supplier in the shortlist.

Do you check quality before goods ship?

Yes. We can approve samples with you, visit the factory during production and inspect goods before loading, with a written report and photos.

Can you handle shipping and export documents?

We coordinate with the factory and your forwarder on export documents such as the commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and, for many industrial goods going to the EU, the A.TR movement certificate.

Send a product brief

The more specific the brief, the more accurate the quotes. A photo link or a spec sheet helps a lot.

Sending a brief is free and doesn’t commit you to anything. We reply within 24 hours with questions or a quote for the shortlist.
