Four on-the-ground capabilities to identify verified Indian factories, negotiate ex-factory terms, monitor production, and inspect finished goods before shipment.
Find Suppliers
We match your product specifications, target FOB pricing, and order quantities with vetted, capable Indian manufacturers across key production clusters. Direct factory rates without hidden broker markups.
Verify Suppliers & Factories
On-site factory verification before an order or deposit is released. We inspect legal registrations (GSTIN, IEC, PAN), operating machinery, workforce scale, kiln logs, and past export records on the workshop floor.
Manage Procurement & Orders
On-the-ground management of technical samples, production schedules, milestone tracking, and multi-supplier cargo consolidation into dedicated 20ft/40ft containers at regional Inland Container Depots.
Inspect Production & Finished Goods
Raw material moisture testing, in-line defect tracking, AQL Pre-Shipment Inspections (checking a representative sample against agreed defect limits), and supervised container stuffing at the factory dock with 24-hour photo reports.
Fees depend on your project. The product, location, scope of work and your requirements all affect the fee. We’ll discuss the details with you and confirm any charges in writing before work begins.

Custom Pan-India Projects →Major Product Categories Sourced from India
Every product category has distinct manufacturing risks. We apply product-specific inspection protocols developed over years of factory floor work.
🪑 Solid Wood Furniture
Jodhpur is a major Indian sourcing hub for solid wood furniture. We source Sheesham, Mango wood, Acacia, reclaimed timber, and bone inlay. Moisture requirements are checked against the buyer's agreed specification, product requirements and approved sample.
🪨 Natural Stone & Paving
Direct quarry and processing yard sourcing across Rajasthan. We inspect thickness calibration, edge profiling, dry-lay color consistency, and seaworthy fumigated wooden crating.
🎨 Handicrafts & Home Décor
From Jaipur's brassware to Jodhpur's iron-crafts and Saharanpur's wood carvings. We coordinate sampling, quality benchmarking, and barcode packaging for retail shelves.
🧵 Carpets & Dhurries
Hand-knotted wool rugs from Bhadohi and flatweave cotton dhurries from Jaipur. We verify pile density (KPSI), color fastness, wool blend certification, and waterproof baling.
🔔 Metal Crafts & Brassware
Direct sourcing from Moradabad and Jodhpur foundries. We inspect metal gauges, lacquering adhesion, electroplating quality, and protective anti-tarnish wrapping.
🏏 Sports Goods & Equipment
Sourcing from Meerut's specialized sports manufacturing cluster. We inspect willow grading for cricket bats, leather tensile strength, stitch consistency, and custom branding.
🏛️ Vintage & Antiques
On-site sourcing for authentic reclaimed haveli doors, distressed vintage cabinets, traditional damchiya chests, and architectural salvage throughout Rajasthan.
🧵 Textiles & Home Furnishings
Direct sourcing from Jaipur, Kota, and Delhi NCR textile units. We verify fabric GSM, yarn counts, color fastness to washing, and seam-strength stitching.
How We Work with International Buyers
A structured, predictable procurement process from requirement brief to container departure. (Note: Not every project requires every step — services can be booked modularly.)
Requirement Intake
You share specifications, reference photos, target price points, quantities, and destination port.
Supplier Identification
We identify matched manufacturers with the active capacity and machinery for your product type.
On-Site Factory Verification
On-site verification for shortlisted suppliers covers machinery, legal standing, workforce, and past export orders according to the project scope.
Sampling & Golden Sample
We coordinate counter-samples, inspect dimensions, verify finish quality, and lock in the approved master unit.
Raw Material & In-Line QC
We inspect raw materials (e.g., moisture testing on timber against agreed specifications) and monitor production on the line to catch defects early.
Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI)
Sampling inspection against agreed product specifications with photo-documented reporting.
Supervised Container Loading
We count cartons, oversee packing stability, and photograph container stuffing and tamper-proof bolt seals.
Documentation & Release
You can make payment decisions based on verified on-site inspection evidence.
Field-Tested Inspection Standards, Not Distant Promises
International buyers frequently suffer from the risk of managing distant Indian suppliers over WhatsApp. A pristine showroom sample cannot tell you whether production timber has been properly kiln-seasoned, whether a supplier owns active machinery, or whether packaging will survive maritime humidity.
Headquartered in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, our team operates directly on factory floors across the industrial belts of Basni, Boranada, and Sangaria, the sandstone yards of Jodhpur and Barmer, the marble gangsaw units of Kishangarh, and the brass foundries of Moradabad.
- Digital Moisture Meter Testing: Calibrated pin testing on Sheesham and Mango wood against agreed specifications to prevent warping, mold, and seasonal splitting during ocean transit.
- Joinery & Structural Stress Testing: Checking mortise-and-tenon joints, corner blocks, hardware torque, and load-bearing stability.
- Export Packaging Validation: ISTA drop-testing, 5-ply export carton burst ratings, silica gel desiccant placement, and ISPM-15 heat-treated wood pallets.
- Container Stuffing Supervision: Carton, packing and seal checks at the factory or ICD dry port according to the agreed inspection scope to prevent count discrepancies and transit shifts.
How We Solve Real Buyer Problems
Real procurement and quality control interventions executed on the ground in India.
Case Study: UK Sandstone Importer
Problem: Buyer experienced severe color batch variations and broken slab corners in previous direct factory orders.
Our Solution: Visited 4 processing units in Jodhpur and Barmer, established dry-lay inspection protocols, identified non-calibrated slabs before packing, and supervised wooden crate strapping. No shipment rejections across 4 consecutive container loads.
Case Study: Australian Furniture Retailer
Problem: First-time importer needed a reliable solid Sheesham dining table manufacturer with agreed moisture specification limits.
Our Solution: Audited 6 factories in Boranada SEZ, verified kiln-drying chambers, tested moisture across all tabletops against agreed tolerances, and oversaw packaging in drop-tested cartons. Buyer expanded order volume based on reliable product quality.
Case Study: US Home Décor Brand
Problem: Buyer received inconsistent brass plating finishes and scratched lanterns from a Moradabad supplier.
Our Solution: Conducted in-line finishing inspection and pre-shipment defect grading. Identified and corrected defective items before final packing, preventing costly destination disputes.

| Procurement Area | Direct Factory Dealing (High Risk) | With QualityLink Global (Protected) |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Supplier Verification | ❌ Reliance on online B2B profiles and broker claims without on-site verification. | ✅ On-site factory verification in Jodhpur, Jaipur, Moradabad, or Meerut. Verification of GST, IEC, machines, and authentic capacity. |
| 2. Quality Standards & Defect Checks | ❌ Golden sample looks perfect, but mass production suffers dimensions, finish, and joinery defects. | ✅ AQL-based sampling inspection against agreed master samples, checking a representative number of finished units for defects. |
| 3. Timber Moisture & Material Health | ❌ High moisture (>16%) in wood leading to warping, cracking, or mold during 4-week ocean transit. | ✅ Calibrated pin moisture meter testing against agreed specifications for kiln-dried Sheesham and Mango wood before packing. |
| 4. Export Packaging & Crating | ❌ Substandard 3-ply cartons or uncertified wooden pallets rejected at overseas customs. | ✅ ISTA drop-tested 5-ply cartons, corner guards, silica gel desiccants, and ISPM-15 fumigated wooden crates. |
| 5. Container Stuffing & Port Dispatch | ❌ Goods loaded roughly; carton shortages and transit damage discovered only at your warehouse. | ✅ On-site loading supervision at the factory or ICD port. Carton, packing and seal checks according to the agreed inspection scope. |
| 6. Final Balance Payment | ❌ Paying final balance payments before verifying finished production quality on-site. | ✅ Release balance payments with confidence backed by a photo-documented inspection report. |
