Source Smarter with Global Sources
Here are 4 ways Global Sources can help grow your business
Verified Suppliers let you source with more confidence
• We ensure each supplier is authentic with a legally registered business
• We confirm that the listed contact person represents the registered company
• We visit the company 3 or more times to ensure they are export-ready and have real offices and products
• We check that the company information is valid and accurate
• We reject any suppliers that do not meet the standards of our community
• We work closely with intellectual property rights holders to remove any infringing products listed, however
• We do not conduct product inspections. Contact our partner, Bureau Veritas, to discuss your specific product inspection requirements
 Six-Star Supplier Ranking System lets you find the most qualified suppliers based on their Verification and Business Information (see table below)
• Suppliers with a higher ranking provide more business information and verification reports
