Episode Details

Are your overseas suppliers actually passing your Amazon quality bar, or are you just hoping they are because switching feels complicated and tariffs are already eating your lunch? Neil Twa dives into the 2026 sourcing landscape, revealing a staggering insight: a seller doing $80,000 a month with a 35% cost of goods ratio could see an additional $8,400 per month by tightening quality controls. Neil shares a real example from his portfolio, where a home goods brand faced tariff pressures after years of sourcing from China. Discover three actionable moves to ensure your suppliers meet your standards: start with a detailed spec sheet, evaluate your supplier relationships, and manage data across multiple countries.
