Behind the Scenes of an Import: Why Each Product Is a Project

Growth & Structure · Jun 17, 2025 · 7 min

At Sourcify, each product is treated as an import project. And that's no exaggeration. It's a model we built with great care to ensure safety, efficiency and real results for our clients.

Because we're dealing with companies that have robust production processes, rigorous technical requirements and can't take risks with strategic inputs.

One of the first points we analyze is the supplier's time in the market. We don't work with companies that have less than five years of experience.

Certifications are an important differentiator. ISO 9000 and FSC (when applicable) are examples of seals we value.

Another crucial aspect is communication. An experienced supplier anticipates technical questions.

A common challenge in international trade is golden samples: impeccable samples that don't reflect the quality of the commercial batch.

Even with all precautions, unforeseen events can occur. In these cases, we create a detailed technical dossier documenting non-conformities.

At Sourcify, we treat each import as a unique project, with customized steps to ensure quality and satisfaction.

This model was born from our entrepreneurial experience. Because above all, we're also a Brazilian company, dealing with the same challenges our clients face every day.
