Every step below is procurement work. When goods are ready to move, they are handed to an independent logistics provider. Vesta does not operate as a shipping company.
Step 01
Initial enquiry
You tell us what you want to source. A WhatsApp message, a form, or a short brief is enough to start.
What Vesta does
We review the enquiry and confirm whether we can help.
What you do
Share the product, quantity and any links or images you already have.
Output
Acknowledgement and a request for any missing details.
Step 02
Requirement clarification
We turn a product idea into a usable sourcing brief: specifications, quantity, quality expectations, budget range and timeline.
What Vesta does
Ask focused questions so we are not sourcing the wrong product.
What you do
Confirm what matters most: quality, price, speed, branding or a mix.
Output
A clear requirement brief.
Step 03
Supplier research
We search for suppliers that fit the brief — not every supplier who can send a quotation.
What Vesta does
Identify options based on product, quantity, target budget and supplier type.
What you do
Stay available for product decisions if we find variants that need your call.
Output
A working supplier longlist.
Step 04
Supplier comparison
We compare more than unit price: specification, MOQ, lead time, communication quality and obvious credibility signals.
What Vesta does
Assess options against your requirements and flag trade-offs.
What you do
Review the comparison and tell us which direction you prefer.
Output
A comparison of shortlisted options.
Step 05
Quotation
We obtain quotations and make the commercial picture easier to read.
What Vesta does
Communicate with suppliers and organise quotation details for your review.
What you do
Review quotations and ask for any adjustments you need.
Output
Quotation summary for decision-making.
Step 06
Client approval
Nothing moves to purchasing until you approve the supplier, product and commercial terms.
What Vesta does
Present the information needed to decide, without rushing you.
What you do
Approve, request changes, or ask us to keep looking.
Output
Written approval to proceed.
Step 07
Procurement
Once approved, we coordinate purchasing on your behalf.
What Vesta does
Manage supplier communication and purchasing coordination.
What you do
Complete agreed payments according to the approved terms.
Output
Order confirmation and production updates.
Step 08
Inspection where required
If inspection is part of the brief, products can be checked against agreed specifications before they leave.
What Vesta does
Inspect against the agreed specification and share findings.
What you do
Decide how to handle any issues raised in the inspection.
Output
Inspection notes and photographs where applicable.
Step 09
Consolidation where applicable
If goods need to be brought together before shipping, we coordinate that step.
What Vesta does
Coordinate consolidation and prepare goods for handoff.
What you do
Confirm logistics provider details for the next stage.
Output
Packing/handoff notes.
Step 10
Logistics handoff
Goods are handed to an independent logistics provider for transportation. This is a separate partner stage.
What Vesta does
Hand over goods and relevant packing information to the logistics partner.
What you do
Work with your logistics provider on shipping, duties and delivery.
Output
Handoff confirmation. Transportation is not handled by Vesta.
Step 11
Delivery
Your logistics partner handles transit and last-mile delivery according to the shipping arrangement you have with them.
What Vesta does
Remain available for procurement questions that arise after handoff.
What you do
Receive the goods through your logistics provider and inspect on arrival.
Output
Delivery is completed by the independent logistics partner.
