Using our experience as export focused group to
Global Automotive Industry, we help fill this gap
between our international customer's expectations
and the local supplier's capabilities.
Unlike commercial trading, we manage the supplies
from engineering point of view, through a team of
experts to ensure that we have the right the quality
of products, delivery quantities as per schedule,
maintain safety stocks and
manage logistics. Finally through consolidation of
supplies in our own warehouses we have final control on
delivery and quality of your sourcing project thereby
becoming front end supplier to you and have ownership
of product.
