The average client saves 31% on landed cost, net of what we charge.
China-direct, Asia diversification, nearshore Mexico, or U.S. domestic. We run programs wherever the math works for your product. That includes structured plus-one sourcing for brands looking to de-risk single-country tariff exposure without giving up the cost basis of their primary supplier.
Three things show up in almost every consultation we run with brands already importing internationally. Read them and decide whether the call is worth 30 minutes.
Most importers operate on a single bundled quote: factory cost, freight, middleman cut, and margin all rolled into one number. Reconstructing where the dollars actually go, or knowing whether a quoted price drop is real, is nearly impossible from the outside.
By the time you realize 8% of the run is unsellable, the goods are already at your warehouse, the factory has been paid, and your remedies are gone.
Section 301 review. HTS classification mistakes. Country-of-origin questions. First Sale rule eligibility you never claimed. Most importers leave a lot of money on the customs floor.
Finding a factory is the easy part. The 50+ decisions between your spec and your shelf are where your margin gets won or lost. We run all six phases.
Country selection across China, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, Japan, Mexico, and the U.S. Factory shortlisting from 1,000+ vetted partners, cost benchmarking, and supply chain mapping.
Sample procurement, golden sample lock, tooling and mold oversight, and prototyping coordination. We manage the sample cycle until quality matches your standard.
Manufacturer agreements, NDAs, IP protection clauses, payment term negotiation, and non-circumvention coverage. Written by people who have seen what goes wrong.
Inline inspection, pre-shipment inspection, production monitoring, and on-the-ground oversight at the factory. Defects caught before shipment, not at your dock.
Freight coordination, customs clearance, HTS classification, tariff strategy, and importer of record support. Your goods land cleanly.
Plus-one supplier development, ongoing price renegotiation, continuous cost engineering, and market intelligence. Optimization is the relationship, not a project.
We do not hide our margin or bury commissions in your unit cost. Your track and rate sit in your engagement letter before any work begins.
Three of them, public. Many more under NDA.
From the first sample to the final container, Importivity ran a process I could actually see. Markup was on the table before I signed.
They negotiated three rounds of price increases away before they ever hit my invoice. That alone is worth the partnership.
Got us from rough prototype to a launch-ready product without ever feeling like we lost control of the IP or the timeline.
We model your true landed cost before you commit: unit price, freight, duties, tariffs, every line that hits your books. You price your SKU, plan your margin, and forecast working capital on numbers that match what actually ships, not numbers that get rewritten at the dock.
On white-label programs you see actual factory cost and our markup as separate line items on every PO. The markup percentage is locked in your engagement letter before any work starts. Custom programs run on a single landed-cost figure, with prototyping, design, and engineering quoted separately at published rates.
Inline and pre-shipment inspections happen at the factory, by our team, against your golden sample. Issues trigger rework, not returns.
Renegotiations, plus-one supplier development, quarterly cost reviews, and tariff strategy are built in. We earn the loyalty discount back in savings.
If something is not covered here, the call will get to it.
Yes. To take on a new program we need to see a $50,000 initial order and at least $150,000 in annual volume. Below those numbers the math does not produce real savings net of our pricing. We will tell you on the consultation if your project is below the floor and recommend what to do instead, often run the first order direct and come back when volume justifies the model.
OTC and white-label programs run on a tiered cost-plus schedule. You start at 10% on actual landed cost. For every additional $1M of lifetime spend with us, your markup drops 1%, down to a 6% floor. Once your annual spend with us crosses $10M, you move to 4.5%. Commodity programs can run as low as 2% at $5M+ annual commodity volume.
Bring the product, your target landed cost, and a current supplier quote if you have one. In 30 minutes we will tell you which pricing track you fit, what your markup or quote would look like, where the savings actually are on your product, and exactly what an engagement with us would cost over the life of the account.
Often a great starting point. Many of our clients come to us already producing and looking for a partner to professionalize the program, run QC properly, address tariff exposure, or develop a plus-one backup. We will tell you on the consultation whether your existing factory can be folded into a program or whether a fresh sourcing exercise is the better starting point.
On OTC and white-label programs you see actual factory cost and our published markup as separate, documented line items on every PO. The cost-plus structure makes the unit math visible by design. On custom programs your true landed-cost figure is set at engagement and does not change without a written change order. Prototyping, design, and engineering are billed at published rates against an approved scope. The number you signed is the number you pay.
Most brands are on a discovery call within 48 hours of submitting a request. Engagement terms and pricing are mapped within 7 days. Sampling timelines depend on the product, but we can often have first samples in hand within 3 to 5 weeks.
Bring a product, a target landed cost, and a quote from your current supplier. In 30 minutes we will tell you where the savings are and exactly what working with us would cost.
Track, markup, deposit, and additional services are documented in your signed engagement before any work begins. No retainer to talk.
