Principals

# Named people. Personal accountability.

SourceSquid is led by a founder with fifteen years of sourcing, vendor development and quality work across India, China and Vietnam, with senior specialists in ESG, ISO systems and product. You work with them directly, from the first call to the last container.

What we stand for

## Our principles

  1. 01**We name the factory.**

Every shortlist carries the manufacturer, its address and its evidence.

  2. 02**We show the evidence.**

Photos, measurements and reports behind every recommendation.

  3. 03**We tell you first.**

Updates arrive before you need to ask for them.

  4. 04**We stay to the container.**

The principal who scopes your brief sees it loaded.

  5. 05**We speak the floor’s language.**

Ten languages, so nothing is lost between your office and the line.

The people on your program

## Engineers who have stood on the factory floor.
