Since our business revolves around Tridge Finders, we need all those who are interested in becoming Tridge Finders to go through our application process before they get approved to become ones.

When approved, a Tridge Finder can contribute to one of the following areas:

Connecting Suppliers With Tridge

As we are a global sourcing company, we always look for reliable suppliers that can provide high-quality products at the best prices. To make things more scalable, we ask our Finders to find suppliers and get quotes for products that we are looking for.

As soon as we are able to verify the quotes submitted by our Finders, we pay them 25% of the trade commission paid to Tridge when we sell the products sourced from their suggested suppliers.

Connecting Buyers With Tridge

The most compelling way of working with Tridge is that we reward our Finders for connecting us with buyers by sharing up to 50% of the total trade commission generated from transactions between Tridge and their introduced buyers. In exchange, we ask our Finders to support the transactions between Tridge and the buyers until the transactions are successfully closed.

Sharing Expertise With Tridge

Another way to work as a Tridge Finder is to propose new trade items.

We ask them to provide detailed product suggestion which is not yet included in our trade platform (www.tridge.com). As a reward, we pay them USD 200 when they propose a new item after it is confirmed by internal review process.

For Buyers

Tridge operates on our global network of Tridge Finders helping our clients to source products from different countries. Since our Tridge Finders are freelance local experts, we are able to identify reliable and high-quality suppliers that otherwise would have been overlooked by using other means of sourcing. With this unique benefit of our business model, we can ensure that we can find the right food suppliers for our clients anywhere.

For Tridge Finders

We regard our Finders as business partners, and we treat them as such. We work closely with them to bridge new opportunities between countries, to bring trades to life, and to reap benefits from the market arbitrage. These are only achieved through our unique business model in which our Finders contribute by connecting suppliers and buyers with Tridge, and sharing their invaluable insights with us as mentioned earlier.

Working as a Tridge Finder is not a full-time job. Our Tridge Finders can work from anywhere regardless of their locations. Nevertheless, we require them to work professionally by delivering high-quality work on time. For the case of connecting Tridge with buyers, we also need them to be committed to the transactions between Tridge and the buyer by contributing consistently until the transactions are successfully closed.

Whether you will be qualified as a Tridge Finder depends on various factors. During the application process, we will ask you to provide some background including details about yourself, your career and education. You will also be asked about your experience and business connections in sales/distribution and sourcing/procurement/purchasing. This information collectively helps us to determine who would be able to help us find suppliers, connect with buyers or learn from their expertise and knowledge.

There are three ways our Finders can earn from Tridge.

As a Tridge Finder, you can connect us with suppliers by sharing information about them and their quotes for specific products that we are looking for. By connecting us with your suppliers, you help both of us discover opportunities of doing business together. By submitting valid quotes about suppliers and registering them to Tridge under your referral, you will be able to earn up 25% of the trade commission generated from your recommended supplier.

You can start connecting suppliers with Tridge when you receive “sourcing jobs” from us. A sourcing job is basically a request outlining the products that we are looking for. We will make sourcing jobs available to you based on the information you specified on your profile. For example, if you have experience in procurement in the food industry, then you will likely receive sourcing jobs asking you to source food products. Therefore, to maximize your chance of receiving relevant sourcing jobs, we recommend you to always make your profile complete and up-to-date.

Unless you have your own supplier directory, you would need to do some online research to find suppliers for the products we are asking you to source. After you have identified the right suppliers, you would then need to contact them via email or phone to find out whether they can actually meet our requirements and to ask them to provide quotes for the products are looking for. After that, you might need to wait for several days and follow up with them as necessary to get their quotes. As soon as you have gathered all the required information, you can submit it to us for evaluation.

You will need to submit information about the suppliers that you have been getting in touch with. This includes information such as company name, business type, company description and so on. You will also need to provide details about their quotes for the products we are looking for as much as possible. This includes information such as unit price, minimum order quantity, logistics terms, payment terms, product specifications and so on. Please make sure that you check the information you have obtained from the suppliers against the list of information we need before submitting it to us.
