Hello I am a Business Consultant with 20+ years’ experience and a Certified Supply Chain Professional (APICS CSCP) specializing in Sourcing and Business Development. Please Note: I am a Canadian national and currently based in Delhi, India. - DIRECT FROM SOURCE: I have a thorough understanding of Indian Ethnic Handicrafts market. I can help you source the handicraft products directly from manufacturers/artisans rather than the ‘middlemen’ who pretend to be manufacturers. - TARGETED APPROACH: Based on your specific product requirements, I can procure the items from the places which are famous for producing those specified item types. For example, Moradabad is famous for brass décor products, various cities in Rajasthan are famous for wooden and iron items, etc. - BEST COST DELIVERED: Due to my engineering background, I have developed hard negotiation skills over the years wherein I leverage my ability to analyze production costs (labor, material costs, etc.) and margins, and assure best value for dollars spent. - BEST QUALITY: Quality is my top priority wherein I will be visiting supplier workshops to inspect the products and ensure that top quality is maintained throughout the making process. *Site visit costs can be discussed and samples can be arranged per your instructions. - TIMELY & SAFE DELIVERY including best freight rates from freight carriers. I look forward to hearing from you and establishing long-term business relations. Thanks & Regards, Nitin Chawla
