Frequently Asked Questions
Straightforward answers about Rumi Trade’s sourcing, verification, confidentiality and commercial approach.
Is Rumi Trade a trading company or reseller?
No. Rumi Trade is positioned as an independent buyer-side sourcing and verification partner. The goal is to help the buyer identify, assess and compare suitable manufacturers rather than resell products or add hidden supplier markups.
How does Rumi Trade charge for sourcing support?
Engagements are structured around a transparent scope and fee agreed with the buyer before work begins. The exact fee depends on the requirement, level of research, verification and coordination involved.
Do you visit factories in Turkey?
On-ground factory verification can be included when the requirement calls for it. The scope may cover manufacturing capability, equipment, capacity, quality practices, documentation and other buyer-defined criteria.
Can Rumi Trade guarantee supplier quality or performance?
No sourcing or verification process can remove every commercial or production risk. Rumi Trade is designed to improve visibility and reduce avoidable supplier-selection risk, while the buyer retains the final supplier and purchasing decision.
Can you sign an NDA before I share technical information?
Yes. Where proprietary drawings, specifications or commercially sensitive information are involved, an NDA can be arranged before detailed documents are shared.
Can I send drawings, an RFQ or a specification with my enquiry?
Yes. The enquiry form accepts common business and technical file formats. If the material is highly confidential, mention that in the enquiry so the appropriate confidentiality process can be agreed first.
What information should I include in my sourcing enquiry?
Include the product or component, estimated quantities, material or technical specifications, required standards, target timing and any known commercial constraints. Existing drawings, BOMs or RFQs are helpful when available.
How quickly will Rumi Trade respond to an enquiry?
Qualified enquiries are normally reviewed within one to two business days. Complex technical requirements may need an initial clarification before a sourcing scope can be proposed.
What types of products can Rumi Trade help source?
The focus is industrial sourcing, including machinery, machined components, steel fabrication, mechanical parts, pumps and valves, spare parts and other custom-manufactured requirements that fit the Turkish industrial supply base.
Does Rumi Trade handle shipping and logistics?
The core service is supplier sourcing, verification and buyer-side coordination. Logistics requirements can be discussed as part of the engagement, but the exact responsibility should be agreed for each project rather than assumed.
Still have a sourcing question?
Send your requirement and Rumi Trade can clarify the appropriate next step.
