Sarah Akoni
@sarahakoni
I source, verify, negotiate, and ship products from China to global clients.
What I'm looking for
I've managed end-to-end product sourcing from Chinese suppliers and manufacturers for businesses and individual clients since 2021. I turn client requirements for budget, specifications, quality, quantity, and delivery timelines into practical purchasing options.
Through my self-employed sourcing work and Freyah’s Importation / Freyah’s Lux Enterprise, I identify and verify suppliers, compare quotations, negotiate prices and MOQs, and coordinate approved orders through delivery. I use direct communication, live video checks, business information, product photos, and structured supplier questions to support reliable purchasing decisions.
I coordinate pre-shipment warehouse inspections, quality checks, Chinese warehouse handling, and air and sea freight. I've supported imports into Ghana and exports to the United States under FOB, CIF, EXW, and DDP arrangements.
I focus on cost-conscious purchasing, supplier reliability, clear client updates, and smooth order execution from research through shipment follow-up.
