Product sourcing experts embedded in your supply chain
Importivity's global sourcing team operates inside factories, not behind desks, walking production floors, pulling samples, and breaking down cost sheets so you don't have to.
9 out of 10 sourcing agents cost you more than they save
Most agents provide a factory list, collect a fee, and disengage. We maintain a direct presence in manufacturing facilities across multiple countries, conducting floor inspections, analyzing cost structures, and staying involved through every production run.
What we do differently
We walk factory floors, pull production samples, break down cost sheets, and stay on-site during runs. The result: lower unit costs, fewer defects, and a supply chain you actually control.
- Direct factory relationships, no trading-company intermediaries
- Data-driven pricing built on real production economics
- Physical quality control, not documentation-based verification
- Long-term supply-chain management beyond a single transaction
The team behind your supply chain
Real partners finding, vetting, and managing global manufacturers with full cost transparency.
Tanner Plante
Co-FounderTanner built Importivity after watching the same pattern repeat across hundreds of import deals: companies paying too much and trusting the wrong intermediaries. He leads supplier identification and cost engineering across our manufacturing markets.
Jordan Lewis
Co-FounderJordan manages the moving parts between a signed sourcing agreement and a delivered product, production scheduling, order tracking, supplier coordination, and deadline enforcement all run through him.
Courtney King
Courtney owns the part of sourcing where most operations fall apart: quality. She built Importivity's audit protocols, inspection workflows, and defect-resolution systems from scratch.
Lila Manroe
Lila manages project updates, supplier reporting, and timeline changes, the kind of clear, no-surprises communication that keeps sourcing engagements from going sideways.
Inside the supply chain, at every step
One accountable team from the first factory search to a delivered, in-spec order.
We hunt down the right factory, not the first one
Our specialists locate factories through on-the-ground research, referral networks, and direct outreach inside manufacturing clusters. Every supplier clears a qualification gauntlet, capability audits, financial checks, certification verification, and sample evaluation, before they ever touch your product.
We take apart the price and rebuild it in your favor
We analyze unit economics and negotiate from real production data, not list prices. The difference usually runs 15% to 35%.
We stand on the production floor so you don't have to
Our people conduct on-site quality verification during production runs, rather than relying on photographs sent after the fact.
We get it to your door, on time, in spec, no surprises
We coordinate freight, documentation, and delivery scheduling end to end, with a tariff-aware view of landed cost.
We're hiring
Importivity is growing. We need people who want to be inside the supply chain, not reading about it. If you have experience in supplier management, quality control, logistics, or manufacturing, and you want work that actually moves product, we want to talk.
We're where your products are made
That single fact changes everything about how sourcing works for you.

We'll tell you what things actually cost
Most sourcing companies won't. It's the foundation of everything we do.
Transparency over margins
Clients see actual cost structures, not marked-up quotes. You always know the real number.
Long-term relationships over quick wins
We invest in factories that perform, not one-off deals that leave you exposed later.
No gatekeeping
We share information and explain every decision, so you keep control of your own supply chain.
