Apolo Group is a sourcing and procurement advisory firm for companies in the United States and Latin America buying from factories in Asia. We qualify the suppliers, negotiate the terms, manage quality, and stay accountable from first quote to delivered container.
The wrong supplier. The wrong terms. The deal that collapses after the deposit clears. Most buyers don't fail because they picked a bad price — they fail because nobody on their side of the table understood how the factory actually operates, what the contract really protects, or where the process quietly breaks. By the time the container lands, the leverage is gone.
We identify, vet, and compare real factories — capacity, pricing, certifications, and reliability. You see qualified options with the tradeoffs made explicit, not a single pitch you have to trust.
We negotiate pricing, volumes, and payment structures designed to protect you, not the factory. Deposits tied to milestones. Specs written so "close enough" isn't an option. No money into thin air.
Specifications, QC checkpoints, and the cultural gaps that quietly derail cross-border orders. Most failed orders were fully visible weeks before loading — to someone who knew what to look for.
Shipping coordination, documentation, and delivery — one accountable point of contact from factory gate to your door. When something goes wrong, you call one person, and that person has the relationship on both ends.
We don't advise on cross-border sourcing from a textbook. Apolo was built on real transactions moving product between Asia and the Americas — from the buyer's side, with accountability for the result, not just the introduction.
That experience includes the moment every buyer fears: a factory quoted impossibly low, took a 30% deposit, then admitted it couldn't produce. We had a backup pipeline ready and closed the order anyway. That's the whole point of working with us — we know where these deals break, and we build the protections in before your money moves.
A fixed fee for a defined scope — a sourcing project, a factory qualification, a negotiation. Clear deliverables, clear price, no surprises at the end.
3–8% of order value, paid by the buyer, tied to a closed and delivered order. Never paid by the factory — that's the whole point.
Apolo as your standing procurement desk — continuous supplier management, quality oversight, and execution without building the function in-house.
