Hello I am Roland and I have read your brief. Firstly, yes I have experience in sourcing for both products and suppliers. I worked as Admin Support and one of my major task then was to research about a new product, gather all necessary details and source for the manufacturer. I provide them with the information needed for a custom made product if necessary. I have experience in this area, and I am very familiar with RFQ, PI, Bill of Laden, Packing list and other terms. Kindly get in touch to enable proper pricing. Regards Roland
