Vanguard Sourcing is an India-based sourcing and production coordination partner for international retailers, importers, wholesalers and private-label brands. This resource centre brings together practical guides for evaluating Indian suppliers, developing products, planning quality controls and coordinating shipments across key international markets.
Use these resources to prepare a sourcing brief, understand the questions to ask suppliers and identify the information required before committing to samples or bulk production. Supplier availability, MOQ, pricing, certifications and lead times must always be confirmed for the specific product and order.
