What Makes Sourcing Bali Different
In a market where sourcing companies often blur together, Sourcing Bali stands out as a trusted partner known for its unique blend of experience, integrity, and innovation.
Founded in 2001, Sourcing Bali has built a strong reputation for connecting international buyers with the rich craftsmanship and creative culture of Bali, Indonesia. But what truly sets us apart goes beyond product sourcing—it’s the way we work, the values we uphold, and the people behind our brand.
1. Experienced Leadership with Industry Insight
At the core of Sourcing Bali is Ibu Ririn, a seasoned professional with over 20 years of experience in the hospitality sector. Her background as a Director of Sales and Marketing and General Manager has shaped our client-focused approach, bringing strategic vision and fresh momentum to the company’s growth.
She is joined by Desmond James, Sourcing Bali’s Founder and Creative Director. An Indonesian Englishman who grew up in Australia, Desmond has lived in Asia since 1995 and brings deep expertise in design and luxury hospitality, having worked with leading hotels across the region. In 2000, his passion for quality craftsmanship and ethical design led him to establish Sourcing Bali. Today, he continues to shape our creative direction through innovation, cultural sensitivity, and a deep commitment to outstanding artisanship.
2. Local Roots, Global Standards
Being based in Bali gives us more than a logistical edge—it allows us to be deeply embedded in the local culture, community, and creative heritage. We work directly with artisans, family-run workshops, and emerging studios to ensure authenticity, ethical practices, and competitive pricing.
At the same time, we deliver with the professionalism and consistency expected by global clients—from luxury hotels and resorts to boutique retailers and interior design studios.
3. Fully Tailored, End-to-End Sourcing
Whether you're furnishing a boutique resort, launching a homeware collection, or designing a custom interior, we offer bespoke sourcing services tailored to your exact needs. From product development and supplier coordination to quality control, packing, and international shipping, we manage every stage of the process—ensuring peace of mind and beautiful results.
No cookie-cutter solutions—just customised service, shaped around your timeline, vision, and creative goals.
4. Sustainability and Ethical Responsibility
We’re proud to champion sustainable sourcing and support artisans who use natural, recycled, or responsibly sourced materials. Our long-term partnerships are built on fair trade, transparency, and shared values around environmental stewardship.
Every project reflects our commitment to ethical craftsmanship—from sourcing to shipping.
5. A Creative Partner, Not Just a Vendor
Clients come to us for products but stay for the partnership. We work hand-in-hand with interior designers, architects, hospitality brands, and boutique retailers to co-create unique collections and spaces. Our team offers inspiration, insight, and creative collaboration at every step.
We don’t just source items—we bring ideas to life with care, purpose, and artistry.
