1B: Manufacturer or Trader Check

🏭 Manufacturer or Trader Check

In India’s vast export ecosystem, one of the biggest sourcing risks isn’t fake companies — it’s misrepresented ones.
Many vendors claim to be manufacturers when, in reality, they operate as traders or intermediaries who depend on third-party workshops for production. That means no real control over quality, timelines, or consistency — and when things go wrong, responsibility disappears.

Source With Trust™ ensures you know exactly who you’re dealing with before you proceed.
Through our Manufacturer or Trader Check, we verify whether your supplier has real production infrastructure or is simply reselling products from others.
Our unbiased assessment gives you the clarity needed to build transparent and dependable partnerships.

What We Verify:

  • Factory ownership, size, and operational status

  • Existence of core machinery and workforce (not just showrooms or warehouses)

  • Type of production handled internally vs. outsourced

  • Product sampling, production photos, and process verification

  • Export history and customer references to confirm manufacturing claims

Our ground-level feedback clearly states whether the vendor is a genuine manufacturer, partial producer, or full trader.
You receive photographic proof and structured observations — so you can make informed sourcing decisions and plan production strategies accordingly.

Why It Matters:
Working unknowingly with traders often leads to inflated costs, communication gaps, and delayed shipments.
Knowing your vendor’s true nature from the beginning gives you control, transparency, and negotiation power.

With Source With Trust™, you gain a partner who verifies the truth — not just the paperwork.
Your confidence in every supplier becomes as strong as your products themselves.
