FAQs
How is Quata Sourcing different from traditional trading companies or agents?
Unlike trading companies that earn profit margins by buying and reselling goods, Quata Sourcing works as a transparent sourcing partner. We act entirely on behalf of the buyer, without taking commissions or hidden markups from suppliers.
Our team manages the full sourcing cycle — from supplier research, qualification, and price benchmarking to logistics coordination and quality inspections — but clients always maintain full visibility and control over their supply chain.
This transparent, engineering-driven model ensures you get the best supplier, best cost, and verified quality, not just the easiest deal for an intermediary.Do I buy directly from suppliers, or through Quata Sourcing?
In most cases, you buy directly from the suppliers that Quata Sourcing identifies and qualifies for you. This ensures full transparency — all prices, specifications, and supplier details are shared openly, with no hidden margins or commissions.
Quata works on a fee-based sourcing model, acting as your procurement partner to manage every step: supplier research, qualification, negotiation support, quality control, and logistics coordination.
When preferred, we can also arrange a fully managed supply option, where Quata purchases from the supplier and delivers the goods to you under agreed commercial terms. But our default approach keeps you in direct control of supplier relationships and costs while we manage the process on your behalf.Can Quata Sourcing handle logistics, customs, and delivery to my destination?
Yes. Quata Sourcing offers a fully managed supply process that can include logistics coordination, export/import documentation, and delivery to your warehouse or designated port.
We work with trusted logistics and warehousing partners under our direct supervision to ensure safe handling, accurate paperwork, and on-time shipment. Whether you need EXW, FOB, CIF, or DDP delivery terms, we can manage the process according to your preference.
This approach allows you to work through a single point of contact while maintaining flexibility — you decide whether Quata handles the logistics or whether you prefer to use your own forwarder.Which industries does Quata Sourcing specialize in?
