HELPING YOU PROCURE GOODS AND SERVICES FROM INDIA, DEVELOP BUSINESS AND SELL INTO INDIA AND ADMINISTER THE PROCESS ALL ALONG THE WAY
   
   
 
 
Welcome to India Source, a Division of Spicy, LLC. Our objective is to assist US-based companies with navigating the waters of doing business in India, either through sourcing products from India in the capacity of sourcing agents in India or selling into the country as an exporter .

We also represent Indian Companies in procuring technologies from the US as importers in India and in the capacity of a Marketing Agent to sell Indian goods in the US.

It is easy today to search online and find many suppliers who offer claims of their work and their professionalism. The problem is that unless you are on the ground in India and can meet that person face to face you have no idea if they actually really understand your specifications for an order, are reputable and honest, and have the capability to do what they say they will. Why leave such important tasks to chance?

India Source is about providing you the level of service you require while minimizing the risks involved in conducting international business in general and India Trade in particular. If you already know of reputable sources but want someone to manage the process we can simply handle the payment, inspection, shipping, duty and delivery. On the other hand, if you do not know a supplier or are unsure about the legitimacy of a supplier we vet that supplier to ensure that the quality you order is the quality you receive. It is our honor and our duty to source products and services from reputable, reliable, and professional companies who are interested in your needs as well as their own. International business is all about the long-term relationship that is mutually beneficial to all parties involved. We work hard to make that a reality.

Today India is quickly becoming a strong competitor to China for the development of goods and services especially in the fields of technology, biotechnology, medical and pharmaceuticals, as well as in small scale production requiring R&D. New Product Development is one area that is advantageous to look for as product development in India means lower costs, harnessing the brain power of highly educated people, and taking advantage of a 24-hour working clock due to time differences. In addition, India’s domestic consumption is driving tremendous growth in manufacturing which makes it an ideal place both to source goods from but more importantly possibly to provide supplies of much needed goods and services to support that growing process. Nowhere is this more evident than in the infrastructure which is in poor condition and which requires immediate investment just to keep up with internal demand. US and other foreign companies with the necessary expertise and desire will play a large role in making that happen. Even soft skills such as training are in high demand and are welcomed with open arms, as long as it is done in a tactful manner that is not representative of past foreign dominance and influence which Indians are loathe to remember after British and other foreign control for hundreds of years.

While India is still a 3rd World country it is on the verge of exploding. The population now stands at 1.2 Billion and will actually surpass that of China. While infrastructure is years ahead in China, intellectual capital is light years ahead in India. Add to that the greater transparency, close budding relationship between New Delhi and Washington, and the fact that India is the world's largest democracy and English-speaking country, making it a natural place for US companies to invest, do business and import from.

To put things into perspective India is one of the most open societies in the world and has freedom of expressions so there is no concern about repression of your business interests. That being said it is a very large country with 26 states and hundreds of languages not to mention a melting pot of various peoples and cultures. It is wise not to go it alone but instead to find a trusted partner who can help you navigate to your desired objective.

Please take a look at the various services India Source offers. WE CAN BE AS INVOLVED OR HANDS OFF AS YOU REQUIRE. The service level you choose is entirely dependent upon the timeframes involved and your project budgets. All services are ala carte but in general you can base your budget on an hourly rate of $100/hour for non-sourcing types of work and a 5% international standard commission on all sourcing work. We are generally able to do in one week what our clients have previously spent 6 weeks or more doing.

It is our pleasure to serve you and work on your behalf. We take pride in completing difficult tasks and seeing them through to fruition. We have extensive experience in custom order production and research and development. India Source is here at your service. Give us a call or drop us an email. Let us know what we can do to help!
