Got questions? We have answers.
What does a sourcing agency actually do?
We, Beschaffungswerk GmbH, are a service provider specialized in sourcing – primarily goods. Our mission is to meet our clients' needs with high quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Our main tasks include identifying suppliers and assessing quality, price, delivery times, and reliability. We also handle order processing and manage all workflows and processes.
Who benefits from using a sourcing agency?
In principle, anyone with a sufficient purchasing volume or limited sourcing expertise can benefit from working with Beschaffungswerk GmbH. This is especially true for clients who prefer not to deal with complex sourcing procedures in manufacturing countries or with the import logistics – or who lack their own import department.
What are the advantages compared to platforms like Alibaba?
Our clients are as unique and diverse as the products they need. We offer personal support from the initial product inquiry to the arrival of the goods at the client's premises.
What products can you source?
Our expertise at Beschaffungswerk lies in non-food goods: home & living, kitchen & household, toys & leisure, outdoor & garden, promotional and advertising items, private label, mail-order packaging, and much more.
How does the collaboration work?
As a rule, we begin with a personal conversation to determine your exact needs. All relevant parameters – from product selection to delivery to your warehouse – are discussed. Planned volumes and target prices are essential for accurate pricing.
Which companies do you work for?
We mainly work for retailers, brand manufacturers and industrial companies with regular purchasing volumes – from established mid-sized businesses to large corporations. We review every inquiry personally and will tell you openly if we are not the right partner for your project.
In which countries is a sourcing agency useful?
Global markets and international supply chains make the world feel smaller. Obstacles may include embargoes, import restrictions, or customs regulations. Sourcing agencies make sense within Europe and in EU partner countries.
What risks can you mitigate for me?
There are countless horror stories and heavy losses where delivered goods don't remotely match the order. In many cases, the manufacturer disappears or refuses to accept complaints. Money is lost and frustration runs high. Beschaffungswerk works exclusively with verified companies that have been personally inspected. Long-standing supplier networks guarantee safe procurement even in the event of complaints.
