Supply Chain & Operations

Supply Chain & Sourcing Advisory

Vietnam has the factories. Finding the right one is the hard part. We match you with vetted suppliers, visit the factories with you or for you, source the equipment you need, and check quality before anything ships. For everyday supplies, we handle the buying and deliveries too, so your products arrive as ordered and on time.

Supply Chain: From First Supplier to Final Delivery

Use one service or the whole chain. We work to your product, volumes and budget, and report back at every step.

Finding suppliers

Supplier Matching & Vetting

The wrong supplier costs you months. We match you with factories that fit your product, volumes, prices and quality bar, check them before you meet, and make the introductions.

  • Shortlists matched to your brief
  • Background and capability checks
  • Introductions and first meetings

Best forBrands sourcing from Vietnam for the first time, or replacing a supplier.

For exampleA French design studio finds ceramic tableware makers that can match its glazes and volumes.

Seeing it first-hand

Factory Visits & On‑the‑Ground Support

See where your products are made before you commit. We plan and join your factory visits, or go in your place and send back photos, video and a written report, interpreting throughout.

  • Visit planning and scheduling
  • Interpreting during meetings
  • Photo, video and written reports

Best forOverseas buyers who can't be in Vietnam for every visit.

For exampleA furniture importer compares three factories through our visit reports before its first order.

Tooling up

Equipment & Production Assets

New products often need new tools. We find the machinery, moulds, tooling and packaging lines you need, locally where it saves money, plus specialists for prototypes and custom parts.

  • Machinery and production lines
  • Moulds, tooling and custom parts
  • Prototype and development partners

Best forCompanies launching a product line or bringing production in-house.

For exampleA cosmetics company sources a machine to fill and seal tubes in its own facility.

Before it ships

Quality Control & Inspection

Catch problems at the factory, not in your customers' hands. We check products before, during or after production, from random samples to pre-shipment and packaging checks, and report defect rates clearly.

  • Pre-production and in-line checks
  • Pre-shipment inspections
  • Packaging and compliance checks

Best forBrands shipping large orders or fixing a quality problem.

For exampleA US home goods brand has 10,000 units inspected before they leave the factory.

Everyday supplies

Local Procurement & Bulk Buying

Stop chasing small vendors. We source what you buy regularly, from ingredients and packaging to office supplies, negotiate the prices and arrange the deliveries.

  • Supplier sourcing and price negotiation
  • Regular and one-off bulk orders
  • Delivery scheduling

Best forCafés, restaurants, retailers and offices buying from many small suppliers.

For exampleA café chain gets milk, bread and packaging delivered every month from local suppliers.
