Standing buying agent appointment
For companies buying repeatedly from the other country. We are appointed by you, paid by you, and act only for you — which is what makes it different from an introduction.
What it covers
Managing the supplier relationship on your behalf, in their language and time zone, including the conversations you would rather not have.
Continuous comparison against alternatives, so you know whether your price is still market.
Not the first one only. This is the core of the appointment.
Coordinated as part of the appointment rather than bought separately each time.
Somebody physically present when something goes wrong, which is when distance hurts most.
What you get
- A named principal accountable for your account
- Inspection report on every consignment
- Quarterly reporting on price, quality and supplier performance
- Escalation handled locally rather than by email at a distance
Monthly retainer plus a percentage of order value. The percentage applies only because we are your appointed agent running inspection — it is not an introduction commission.
