The right partner,
not the first one.
We find, vet and negotiate with suppliers in Mexico and Latin America, so you build a supply base you can rely on, not one you have to babysit.
What is at stake
Search engines find marketers
The best suppliers are often the least visible online.
Cheapest is rarely cheapest
Hidden costs show up as rework, delays and freight surprises.
One supplier, one point of failure
Without a vetted alternative you have no leverage when things go wrong.

Companies moving production from Asia to Mexico, adding a second source, or replacing a supplier that is no longer performing.
Second source for a medical device component
A US device maker relied on one plant in Asia for a molded component. We screened suppliers in Baja California and Jalisco, visited four, and negotiated a dual-source agreement with the strongest. The client now has a qualified alternative close to its US plant.
Illustrative example based on situations we commonly see. Not a specific client.

Before renewing, verify capacity on the floor, not on paper. We recommend an unannounced visit to confirm lines, shifts and current customers, plus a check of their tax status and pending litigation. If the missed shipments came from capacity, ask for a written recovery plan and tie the renewal to on-time delivery for 90 days.
