Why does a buyer need us?
• “I can directly source a factory here”. “Why would I hire a buying house?”-A lot of buyers may have these thoughts. An old proverb in Bengali says that a milkman would never tell that his milk is bad. Many manufacturers here are true to their commitments and their professionalism, but not all of them. So, if you fall into the showmanship of a wrong local manufacturer, you wouldn’t get the customer satisfaction, and your image of the Bangladeshi RMG Industry would be tarnished, as well as your own brand image when you go to sell the product. Still, there are other factors like cultural barriers, language, and local knowledge that would prevent you from sourcing the correct manufacturer. You need a local expert who will monitor them. Let’s see the factors below on how our company can play a huge role in your apparel sourcing in Bangladesh and why a buyer needs a buying house.
• • A Bangladeshi buying house never takes a fee from the buyers. The legal way of getting their buying commission is 5% of the actual order amount according to Bangladeshi local law which they collect from the manufacturer.
• • Why will manufacturers properly monitor a buyer’s production when a LC is opened? The fact is they don’t need to legally, and they won’t. But if a buyer opens a transferable and negotiable LC on the name of a buying house, that buying house will do everything and anything possible to insure that the buyer’s production is on schedule, and the product quality is maintained, and proper compliance is being followed. If the manufacture doesn’t ship the production on time, and it lacks good quality, they will have to face a legal claim from the buyer. Nobody wants to be in trouble. Right?
• • Explaining things in a local industry way is another weapon that a buying house can offer. Let me tell you my own story. When I started my career as a Merchandiser, I used to think that I have gone to one of the best business schools in our country; so I would explain the production plan to people very well. I made product attributes presentations on my laptop, and explained the product details to a sample supervisor. Afterwards I was feeling very satisfied that I have done an excellent job. Two days later, when I got the sample in my hand I was so surprised to see that they didn’t even do a single thing I had explained to them. I went to their PM(production manager) explained what happen and what I was looking for. He assured me that it will be better in the next sample. Oh my God! The next sample was even more disastrous. I was thinking in my mind, what I couldn’t understand to explain. I went to a senior who had been in the RGM industry almost since it had started, and after hearing my process he started laughing. He said “Look son, the production people don’t have a university degree like you and I do. They don’t understand details. You need to give them an original sample and tell them to copy it. That’s all they need. You just puzzled them’’. These are small little things only a local industry person here can understand. So, if you want to have a monitoring team who is going to monitor all these things, you need to hire a local expert, like buying house or a sourcing agency. Local people know their local ways to get it done.
• Interpersonal relationship with manufacturers is another vital issue which can be resolved by hiring a local buying house. Bangladesh is a non-materialistic society. Non-verbal communication has a huge impact in business communication here. People value relationships more than the money. A lot of things can be resolved here if you can build proper interpersonal relationships here. Only a local buying house can help buyers because they have the power of the local relationship.
