i was wondering what buying/sourcing agents were

**S Lee** · 08-07-2008 06:39 PM

They are people who you hire to buy products or work with manufacturers to produce products, usually working on a percentage or flat fee basis depending on the size of the deal, or whether its a one time or long term job.

Buying agents go out to find and buy products for you, then pack them together, inspect them, etc. Depending on what you have worked out with them, they can also take care of shipping on their end, usually through a shipping or freight forwarding company.

Sourcing agents work with the buyer and manufacturer closely to produce some product(s) the buyer has in mind. Usually a good idea to find someone with expertise in whatever product you are trying to get sourced, since they are going to be responsible for specifications and keeping an eye on quality.
