Hi friends, does anyone have sourcing freelancers/agents well connected with factories in Poland, Turkey or other countries nearby/inside the EU? I’d love intros

Aaron Alpeter December 30, 2024 at 12:24 PM

Yes I know a few. What are you trying to source specifically?

Colin Percy December 30, 2024 at 01:20 PM

Hey thanks for the response! I’m looking for products like this - Typically book printers and packaging factories make these “book” style boxes

Makes sense. Is there a reason you want to source in the EU? IE are you intentionally diversifying out of Asia?

Colin Percy December 30, 2024 at 01:22 PM

I’m comparing against Asia for price and leadtimes. I’m targeting EU & UK customers

ok- check out sourcify.com. I know that they do a lot out of turkey & north africa. Not sure how developed the supply chain for these things is outside of asia though.
