In a context of pressure on margins, logistical disruptions and a constant search for competitiveness, supplier sourcing is becoming a strategic priority for any company.
At Feraya Trade , we support organizations every day in optimizing their purchases through rigorous, international, and above all profitable sourcing.
Here's what you need to understand about the topic, the issues involved, and how to avoid costly mistakes.
What is supplier sourcing?
Supplier sourcing refers to all the actions implemented to search for, identify, evaluate and select the suppliers best suited to a company's needs.
Unlike a simple purchasing process, sourcing aims to establish a lasting and strategic relationship with reliable partners, by integrating multiple criteria:
Product quality
Total price (full cost, incoterms, transport)
Production and shipping times
Capacity for innovation
Regulatory compliance and certifications
Why is sourcing a strategic lever?
Proper sourcing can lead to more than just short-term savings. Here are the four main benefits for your business:
1. Cost reduction of up to 50%
By expanding your supplier base internationally, you gain access to much more advantageous purchasing conditions.
Feraya Trade allows its customers to save up to 50% on certain products or raw materials, without sacrificing quality.
2. Less dependency, more security
Diversifying your suppliers helps reduce the risks associated with a single source: delays, disruptions, geopolitical instability, etc.
3. Better quality and compliance
Thanks to rigorous selection, prior auditing and quality controls, your products better meet your market standards.
4. Responsiveness to market developments
Active sourcing allows you to remain agile, quickly identify new suppliers and respond more quickly to field needs.
