What is a Sourcing Agent or Sourcing Company?

A sourcing agent is a person or agency that represents a buyer to source commodities, buy products that are out of the buyer’s reach. Sourcing agents or sourcing companies are often needed in international trade.

Traditionally, a sourcing agent is only to source suppliers for his client. Indeed, the services provided by sourcing agencies can include selecting the right supplier, making price negotiations, following up production, quality control, product compliance and testing, shipping, etc.

It’s not said that sourcing agents or companies are due to provide the full range of services. The work scope depends on the agreement reached by both sides.
