Where We Source: North, Central, and South

Our specialists are based in Hanoi, Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City. That means factory visits at short notice, quality checks carried out in person, and negotiation in Vietnamese — not a broker relaying messages from another country.

North

Hanoi, Bac Ninh and Hai Phong

Electronic components, steel and metal products, and construction materials, from the industrial belt around Hanoi and the northern ports.

Central

Da Nang, Hue and the Central Highlands

Organic textiles, handicrafts, and funeral and memorial products, from the central coast inland to the highlands.

South

Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta

Bamboo and wood products, furniture and home goods, biodegradable plastic and paper, health and personal care, and FMCG and consumer goods, from the Binh Duong and Dong Nai manufacturing belt.

The Local Experts Managing Your Supply Chain

Sourcing specialists in each region, supported by logistics and technology. Every one of them is a direct employee — there is no agent layer between you and the factory.
