Just what you need

OTTO International offers you two different service packages for maximum flexibility:

  1. Trader business design
  2. Agent business design

Clients who choose the Trader package need only provide basic product ideas and requirements. OI handles the entire supply chain process and makes all sourcing decisions. Design houses handle any creative work our clients desire - from designing single product styles to creating full-range collections. We select sourcing markets and suppliers, offer core merchandising and quality management competencies, and organize the logistics including all required services, whether you prefer "landed duty paid", where OI is responsible for delivery to your domestic harbor or airport, or "delivered duty paid", where we deliver directly to your warehouse.

Under the Agent package, clients handle part of the value chain themselves and make all major sourcing decisions. They know which product they want, what it should look like and how it will be transported. OI oversees and coordinates the sourcing process. Our 23 offices and 14 agency partners worldwide give you access to all the major sourcing markets. Also, we offer qualified recommendations on where best to place a given order. Delivery is "free on board", with OI handling the cost for transportation to the harbor or airport of the producing country.

Choose one of the two service packages based on your requirements - or create an individual package from our various service modules. Any of our services may be booked on its own or in combination with others. Whatever your needs may be - just contact us. We'll find the perfect solution for you.
