How Our Sourcing Reports Are Verified and Why That Matters

October 21, 20252 min read

When it comes to global sourcing, trust is everything. Whether you're an established importer or launching your first product line, choosing the right supplier can make or break your business. That’s why every sourcing report we provide undergoes a rigorous verification process before it ever reaches your hands.

Learn how our sourcing reports are verified, and more importantly, why that level of accuracy and transparency matters to your success.

What Is a Sourcing Report?

At its core, a sourcing report is a curated document containing detailed information about suppliers or manufacturers that produce a specific type of product or product(s). Our reports go a step further, offering verified contact information, manufacturing details, product specialization, and other relevant operational insights.

But unlike a generic list from the internet or an online directory, our reports are built from real-world supplier data and field-level verification.

Our Verification Process: Behind the Scenes

Here’s a breakdown of how each sourcing report is built and verified:

1. Supplier Identification

We start by tapping into our internal network of over 1,800 pre-vetted manufacturers in Vietnam. These are suppliers we’ve either worked with directly or vetted through personal contact.

2. Phone & Email Verification

We validate direct contact details by calling or emailing each listed supplier to ensure communication channels are active and responsive. No dead ends, no third-party middlemen disguised as factories.

3. Export History & Product Capability

We assess whether the supplier has actual export experience for the product in question. This is crucial for ensuring they understand foreign market standards, documentation requirements, and communication expectations.

4. Personalized Factory Visits (When Available)

In some cases, we’ve visited the factories personally and have hands-on experience working with them, in which case we’ve validated their production capabilities to match what's promised on paper.

Why It Matters: Reducing Risk & Saving Time

✅ You Avoid Wasting Time on Fake or Inactive Suppliers

Online directories are flooded with outdated or fraudulent entries. Our verification process cuts through the noise.

✅ You Get a Head Start on Supplier Communication

With verified emails and phone numbers, you don’t waste days chasing down the right contact person.

✅ You Minimize the Risk of Bad Fits

Our reports help you avoid mismatches in production capability, language barriers, and export readiness.

✅ You Build Trust Faster

When you reach out to a supplier already knowing their background, you're not a stranger—they see you're informed, and that opens doors quicker.

Quality Data Leads to Quality Decisions

In sourcing, information is power, but only if it’s accurate. Our verified sourcing reports are designed to give you that power: to make faster, smarter, lower-risk decisions when engaging with overseas suppliers.

If you're tired of sifting through unverified contacts or getting ghosted by suppliers, it's time to upgrade your sourcing strategy with real, vetted data.
