About SourceFlo
Built on real, hands-on sourcing experience.
SourceFlo was built on real, hands-on experience in Chinese sourcing and trade. We've spent months deep in supplier research — learning to spot fake certifications, verify real factories versus resellers, and calculate true landed costs. We built this process the hard way, so our clients don't have to.
- Spotting fake certifications before you pay a deposit
- Verifying real factories versus trading-company middlemen
- Calculating true landed cost — not just the sticker quote
- Navigating negotiation, QC, and shipping
From the Founder
I didn't set out to build a sourcing agency. My family has been importing from China for years, and I've spent months deep in supplier research myself — learning the hard way how to tell a real factory from a trading company, how to catch a fake certification, and what a landed cost actually adds up to. SourceFlo is that process, built for other businesses that shouldn't have to learn it the hard way too.
I'm based in Slovenia, and I read every inquiry personally.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
A fixed sourcing fee covers supplier research, verification, and quote gathering. If you place an order through a supplier we found, a small percentage fee applies on top — always confirmed upfront before any order is placed.
