What you’ll receive (within 24–72 hours)
- Quote Pack: 3–5 supplier quotes in one sheet (EXW/FOB/CIF/DDP options), MOQ, lead time, payment terms.
- Cost Clarity: landed-cost simulation vs. China (HS code, duty, freight, surcharges).

How our RFQ flow works
- Submit RFQ (2–3 minutes).
Tell us the product, quantity, destination, and any must-have compliance. - Spec Triage (same day).
We translate your brief into a Spec Pack (dims/tolerances, material, finish, packaging, tests). Optional 15-min call. - Cluster Match & Vendor Ping.
We route your RFQ to the strongest Indian clusters (e.g., Moradabad–brass, Tiruppur–knits, Jodhpur–furniture, Pune/Rajkot–engineering) and request quotes from pre-audited factories. - Quote Consolidation.
We normalize offers (terms, MOQs, tooling, freight) so comparison is clean. - Delivery of Quote Pack (24–72h).
You get the side-by-side sheet, compliance notes, and our short recommendation. - Shortlist & Samples.
We lock a Golden Sample plan, AQL levels, and the fastest route to pilot production.
