Fee Structure
The Key to your Global Trading
Please note that these Fee Levels are automatically progressive and cover the whole journey from initial research to seamless – and direct – importation of great quality products at excellent pricing. Once we progress from the scope of one Level to the next Level, only the difference between the previous Level and the next one is charged, and the scope increased. For example if you engaged at Stage 1, once the detailed Report is received, if samples are then arranged with a referred Supplier, etc., the next stage automatically phases in, and Stage 2 is invoiced and so on. Once commercial importation begins, Stage 3 begins, and when that scope has been completed, there are no further charges or ties with Sourcing Services Global (apart from the short term commission – see below).

Stories & Testimonials
“After asking Positiv Business Solutions for help to find products and manufacturing in India and traveling through the country together, I have a huge amount of respect for their ability to source products and build relationships with suppliers in India. They are so passionate about achieving success through hard work and commitment, and their determination is complimented by limitless positivity and support for their customers. I thoroughly recommend this consulting service offering to source products and manufacturing out of India”.
“Sourcing Services Global has been a success for sourcing from India, particularly from the aspect of understanding the culture of the country and how to navigate their methods of negotiation. Having on the ground experience and on-site visits has proved very beneficial with shortlisting good potential suppliers. Definitely recommend Sourcing Services Global’s services!”
“We have felt challenged how we could reduce risk we knew we had with 85% of purchases coming from China. Positiv Business Solutions been a significant help to us, not only in the initial evaluation of options and setting up of new relationships, but also in the reassurance they gave that India is in fact a completely competitive supply alternative. Their knowledge of the country and advice on how to negotiate, plus the commitment to have an engineer that can carry out inspections there, has given us a confidence in progressing the change faster than we would have done otherwise”
