Product Sourcing & Quality Control Services in India

Core Service

Product Sourcing & Supplier Identification

Finding the right manufacturer in India is harder than it looks. A good website doesn't mean a good factory. Many "manufacturers" online are actually traders who'll mark up prices and deliver inconsistent quality.

We identify suitable manufacturers for your specific product and can arrange on-site verification of shortlisted suppliers according to the project scope, sample checks, commercial alignment, and order coordination.

• Supplier identification & shortlisting — we find factories that actually make what you need
• Factory visits and supplier verification — can be arranged for shortlisted suppliers according to the project scope
• Sample development & evaluation — we coordinate samples and check them against your specifications
• Price negotiation — local knowledge means better rates
• Order placement & management — from purchase order to dispatch

Due Diligence

Supplier Verification & Background Checks

Before you send money to a supplier you've never met, you need to know who you're dealing with. We've seen it all — fake factory addresses, photos stolen from other websites, inflated capacity claims, suppliers who disappear after receiving payment.

Our supplier verification goes beyond online database checks. We can arrange on-site verification of shortlisted suppliers according to the project scope.

• On-site factory verification where required by the project — confirming the supplier exists at the claimed address
• Production capacity assessment — can they actually deliver your volume?
• Legal & business verification — registration, tax compliance, export licence
• Financial stability check — are they solvent and reliable?
• Past work & client references — who else have they supplied?
• Full report with photographs — you see everything we find

Quality Assurance

Quality Control & Product Inspection

The most common complaint we hear from importers: "The samples were perfect, but the shipment was nothing like them." That's what happens when nobody inspects production.

Inspection can be arranged at the stages most relevant to your order, including before production, during manufacturing and before shipment. We check materials, workmanship, dimensions, finishing, and packing against your specifications or international standards.

• Pre-production inspection (PPI) — raw materials and initial setup checked before manufacturing starts
• During production inspection (DPI) — we visit while production is underway to catch issues early
• Pre-shipment inspection (PSI) — scheduled according to the agreed production stage, purchase order and inspection requirements
• Final random inspection (FRI) — statistical sampling against AQL standards
• Photo-documented inspection report — covering the agreed inspection scope

Factory Assessment

Factory Audit & Compliance Check

A factory audit goes deeper than a basic supplier verification. We spend a full day (or more) at the facility, assessing everything from production processes to working conditions.

This is particularly important if you're placing large orders, entering a long-term relationship, or your customers require ethical sourcing documentation.

• Production capability assessment — machinery, workforce, capacity, lead times
• Quality management systems — do they have QC processes or just claim they do?
• Social compliance check — working conditions, wages, child labour, safety
• Environmental practices — waste management, chemical handling, sustainability
• Supply chain traceability — where do their raw materials come from?
• Detailed audit report — scored against international benchmarks

Final Check

Container Loading Inspection

Your products passed inspection. They were packed properly. But did they actually make it into the container? Were they loaded correctly to avoid transit damage? Was the right quantity shipped?

During agreed container-loading assignments, we verify quantities, packing, loading sequence, container condition and the seal, with photographic documentation.

• Quantity verification — carton count and loading checks per agreed scope
• Packing inspection — is the packing adequate for sea freight?
• Loading supervision — proper stacking to prevent transit damage
• Container condition check — clean, dry, no holes or odours
• Seal recording — container seal number photographed and documented
• Loading report with photos — photo-documented report covering the agreed loading scope
