Your Sourcing Agents
Our Services
Let us help navigate through a very unfamiliar, disrupted supply chain and get you to the products you need.
SMG has over 30 years of supply chain, manufacturing and medical product sourcing experience. - This also includes a knowledge of logistics and quality testing standards necessary to ensure the customer not only gets their PPE but that it meets the quality standards specified to protect healthcare workers and patients.
Most hospitals, government agencies and first responders found themselves in an unfamiliar procurement environment and at a loss of how to acquire PPE in a market where their traditional sources were disrupted. In addition, non-healthcare related industries were desperate to buy products they had no familiarity in buying and no sources to access them for their employees.
This is where SMG stepped in. Due to our experience and contacts, many buyers looked to us as a Sourcing Agent. They would rely on us to help them find goods outside the normal channels and help further ensure the qoods are of the quality you demand and at a fair market price.
