Get in touch →What we do, in plain terms
You need goods from Bosnia, Serbia, Croatia, Turkey, or Poland. We find the right factory, visit it, check the quality, handle all the paperwork for Dutch and Belgian customs, book the truck or ship, and deliver to your warehouse. You pay one price and deal with one person.
We work with buyers in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg who import furniture, textiles, food, and metal parts. We also work with manufacturers in the Balkans and Turkey who want to sell into the Dutch and Belgian market but do not have a sales presence there.
Our office is in Sarajevo. We speak Dutch, so there is no language barrier on either end of the supply chain.

The real landed cost of sourcing from Asia vs the Balkans
Lower unit price is not the same as lower total cost. Once you add freight, lead time, compliance, and inventory financing, the comparison often surprises buyers. See the full breakdown.
Freight costs cut by up to 60%
Road freight from Bosnia to Rotterdam: 1,200 to 2,200 euros. Ocean freight from China: 4,000 to 8,000 euros per container at current rates.
Lead times of 4 to 6 weeks
Versus 8 to 12 weeks from Asia. Shorter pipeline means lower safety stock and less working capital tied up in transit.
EU compliance verified in person
EUTR, REACH, CE, and food safety certificates are easier to obtain and verify at 1,500km than at 10,000km. We visit factories by road.
Resilient, diversified supply chains
No Suez Canal risk, no port congestion in Shanghai. A shorter, simpler supply chain is a more resilient one.
