You are escorted at all times by a dedicated Account Manager, a trusted member of the Sourcing Bali Crew, acting as your eyes and ears, taking notes and digital images of any selected products.
At the end of each buying day, we download all images, and consolidate all new data - ready to review the next day.
All purchase orders are processed thru the Sourcing Bali accounting and Inventory system M.Y.O.B and all purchase orders are copied to you for your files.
A detailed cash report summary is prepared for each buying trip and any archived files are also readily available upon request.
