Sourcing Agents

Sourcing agents: work with a UK buyer

We are building a small network of reliable sourcing agents to find factories, check quality and ship to the UK for us. If that is what you do, we want to hear from you.

What we need from an agent

Dropshipping fulfilment

Hold or buy stock per order and ship single units direct to UK customers with tracking and plain packaging.

Factory sourcing

Find and compare factories for a product we brief, and send us clear quotes.

Samples

Collect samples from several factories and send them to the UK in one parcel.

Quality checks

Inspect goods before they ship and send photos and video.

Private label and packaging

Arrange our logo, labels, inserts and custom packaging.

Order follow-up

Keep production on schedule and tell us early if anything changes.

Bulk shipping

Ship bulk orders delivered duty paid (DDP) to the UK once a product has passed testing.

What you get from Corda

  • A clear written brief for every product: specification, target price, quantity and deadline
  • One point of contact who makes the decisions
  • Replies within two working days
  • Repeat work across many consumer products as our brands grow
  • A fee structure agreed in writing, whether you charge commission, a fixed fee or a margin

Where we source

Most of our products come from China, and we welcome agents based in Guangdong, Zhejiang, Fujian and Jiangsu. We are also open to agents in Vietnam, India, Turkey and Pakistan.

How we start

  1. 1

    You apply and tell us your services, fees and the consumer products you know best.

  2. 2

    We send you one open request as a trial brief.

  3. 3

    If the quotes, samples and communication are good, we keep working together.
