Direct access to the right factory, without the risks.
When your build requires a specific manufacturer, we connect you directly to vetted factories and protect your IP, quality, and timelines.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you need further assistance, feel free to reach out to our team!
What services does Importivity provide for product sourcing?
Importivity offers end-to-end product sourcing and import export services. This includes supplier identification, credential verification, contract negotiation, QA inspections, compliance management, and logistics support. Unlike brokers, we manage every stage; therefore, our process ensures reliable products, lower costs, and faster time to market.
Why should I choose Importivity over other sourcing companies?
Most sourcing companies stop after connecting you with a factory. Importivity, however, is different. We oversee the entire supply chain from the factory floor to final delivery, and as a result, clients benefit from better control, consistent quality, and improved efficiency.
Does Importivity only source products from China?
China remains a global leader in plastics, electronics, and metals. Importivity, however, also has strong manufacturer connections in Mexico, Vietnam, India, South Korea, Japan, and the United States. Therefore, clients can diversify and reduce risks such as tariffs, geopolitical challenges, or shipping delays.
Can Importivity help with small business or startup sourcing needs?
You may be a startup needing prototype sourcing or a Fortune 500 company scaling production. In addition, we tailor solutions to fit your size, capacity, and goals. For example, many small businesses choose us for dropshipping, packaging, and low-volume manufacturing sourcing, while larger firms use our end-to-end supply chain management.
How does Importivity handle quality control during manufacturing?
We conduct multi-stage QA and QC inspections. This includes pre-production checks, mid-production audits, and final container inspections. Moreover, our on-the-ground teams catch issues early; consequently, products always meet specifications before they leave the factory.
Can Importivity help reduce tariffs on imports?
Our tariff consulting service helps businesses lower landed costs. In addition, we use strategies like tariff engineering, USMCA compliance, and free trade agreements. Therefore, we help clients prepare for global trade shifts such as Section 301 tariffs on China while proactively developing alternative sourcing plans.
Does Importivity manage shipping and logistics?
We partner with trusted freight forwarders and logistics providers. Furthermore, we manage the process end-to-end, ensuring optimized routes and customs compliance. As a result, we secure competitive freight rates and handle the details so clients can focus entirely on business growth.
What industries does Importivity specialize in sourcing?
We specialize in plastics and injection molding, metals and CNC machining, electronics assembly, textiles, and packaging. Moreover, our wide network allows us to match the right factory to the right product; therefore, clients enjoy efficiency, reliability, and long-term success.
Can Importivity improve results with an existing supplier?
Many businesses approach us when they already have a supplier but face quality, cost, or communication challenges. In such cases, we audit suppliers, renegotiate terms, and introduce vetted alternatives. Consequently, we strengthen supply chains and improve long-term performance.
