At M.A.Z International, we understand that a well-optimized supply chain is the backbone of any successful business, especially in the competitive foodservice industry. Our strategic sourcing services are designed to help you streamline your supply chain operations, reduce costs, and maintain a consistent flow of high-quality products. With our expertise in logistics and supply chain management, we offer end-to-end solutions that bring you closer to the best suppliers, the highest-quality ingredients, and cost-effective packaging methods.
Strategic sourcing involves evaluating, selecting, and managing suppliers to maximize value for your business. By focusing on long-term partnerships rather than short-term procurement, strategic sourcing allows you to reduce costs, improve quality, and ensure timely deliveries, essential for businesses like restaurants and foodservice providers that depend on consistency.
We go beyond traditional sourcing by combining our deep market knowledge with direct supplier relationships. Our strategic sourcing services are designed to benefit Quick Service Restaurants (QSRs), retail businesses, and foodservice operators seeking to optimize their procurement processes, improve supply chain efficiency, and reduce overall operational costs.
At M.A.Z. International, we recognize that logistics and supply chain management are critical to maintaining business continuity and growth. Our approach to strategic sourcing consulting focuses on your long-term success. We ensure that every product we source is optimized for your operations, whether it’s sourcing high-quality non-meat toppings for Fresco, honey substitute spreads for Be Sweet, or authentic sriracha sauces for Floating Swan.
By collaborating with the biggest national and regional distributors, the best warehousing companies & transport companies, we streamline your operations and reduce costs across the board. Our strategic sourcing model ensures that your business can handle supply chain fluctuations while maintaining the highest standards of product quality and compliance.
One of the key advantages we offer is the experience and expertise of our partners, who are leaders in their respective industries. For instance, our 3PL is managed by a company with 35 years of experience, allowing them to handle logistics far more efficiently than we or any other importer could.
We also work with top-tier distribution partners like Sysco and GFS, both multinational giants specializing in foodservice distribution. It's safe to say that no one distributes foodservice products more effectively than Sysco and GFS.
This strategic partnership allows us to focus on what we do best—sourcing—while leaving the logistics and distribution to the experts.
Strategic sourcing is a procurement strategy that focuses on creating long-term partnerships with suppliers to maximize value. It helps businesses reduce costs, ensure quality, and improve the efficiency of their supply chain.
We manage the entire supply chain—from sourcing products directly from global suppliers to warehousing, labeling, and delivering your products to your business. We ensure that the process is smooth, cost-efficient, and compliant with all regulations.
Yes, we offer private labeling services to help businesses create their own branded products. Our team works with you to design packaging, ensure compliance, and manage production for your private-label needs.
We specialize in sourcing a wide range of food products, including non-meat toppings, condiments, sauces, and specialty ingredients. Our extensive supplier network allows us to provide high-quality products, commodities, and dry grocery items tailored to your business needs.
We reduce costs by working directly with manufacturers and suppliers, cutting out middlemen. Our lean business model and efficient logistics management allow us to offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality. Since we are not distributors and do not have a payroll expense or a warehousing expense, or trucking expenses, we can work on a thin margin, while passing the savings on to our distribution partners and end customers.
The typical turnaround time is 9–10 weeks for the first order, after which we can build up inventory at our 3PL and ensure a standard 7-day delivery for subsequent orders, depending on product availability and logistics. However, we can accommodate expedited requests when necessary.
With M.A.Z. International, your supply chain operations will be more efficient, cost-effective, and responsive to market demands. Contact us today to learn how our strategic sourcing services can help your business thrive.
