Challenges

Bucksandblack, like numerous other textile industry players, had long been reliant on intermediaries to enhance their visibility and drive sales. However, in an effort to cut down on commission expenses paid to intermediaries and simultaneously increase their business outreach cost-effectively, Bucksandblack made the strategic decision to transition to Foursource.
Challenges

Finding & Using Foursource

Originally, Bucksandblack found customers and kept their business mainly through social media channels such as Instagram, to connect with customers and sustain their business. However, their discovery of Foursource was driven not only by a friend's recommendation but also by encountering a Foursource advertisement, while searching for leather products as well as apparel items. Upon discovering Foursource, Bucksandblac recognized the network’s benefits aligned with the company’s current: grow their online business and minimize their costs and improve efficiency, whilst exploring new markets and meeting potential new buyers. According to Wahab Ahmed, the CEO of the company, Foursource stood out compared to other sourcing platforms due to its ability to provide highly relevant leads for their business needs.
