Accortex Sourcing

VerifiedTransparency Score: 71/100

Accortex Sourcing is a Dhaka-based sourcing office for ready-made garments, founded in 2013 by Farid Ahmmed after a reported 15 years in the Bangladeshi textile and garment industry. The company describes itself as the supply chain office for apparel buyers rather than a factory, covering sourcing, merchandising, quality control and product development under one roof. Product experience is listed across knit, woven, denim, workwear, outerwear and sweater, plus lingerie and home textiles. Work starts from client mood boards and tech packs: the design team and selected suppliers run development and sampling, then merchandisers follow the order through lab dips, fabric approvals, production and final packing. Compliance handling for export markets is named as part of the service, and the address in Mirpur DOHS is published with a direct email and phone number.

Our Review of Accortex Sourcing

Accortex Sourcing is a garment sourcing office in Dhaka, Bangladesh, founded in 2013 by Farid Ahmmed after what the site describes as a 15-year career in the country's textile and garment industry. It is not a factory and not a trading company holding stock: the business sits between international apparel buyers and Bangladeshi manufacturers, and its service list is the standard buying-house stack of sourcing, merchandising, quality control and product development. The category coverage is wider than many single-specialism buying houses. The product menu runs across knit, woven and denim in kids, ladies and mens fits, plus workwear, outerwear, sweater and a broader others category that the site uses for lingerie and home textiles. That breadth matters for buyers running a multi-category programme, because the same merchandising team follows the whole order book instead of handoffs between specialised agencies. Development is described concretely. Buyers send inspirations and mood boards, the in-house design team works with handpicked suppliers to develop fabrics and constructions, sampling runs until approval, and only then does production start. After that, merchandisers follow the order through lab dips, fabric approvals, production and final packing. Compliance for export markets is explicitly part of the service, which for Bangladesh is the part buyers most often have to verify themselves under EU and US due diligence rules. The limitation is disclosure. There is no employee count, no client list, no certification named on the site, and no fee structure or minimum order published, so a buyer cannot benchmark this agency against a Sedex-audited competitor or an ISO-certified buying house from the website alone. The practical verification step is to ask for the audit reports of the factories they propose and for references from two buyers whose programmes are similar in size to yours.

Things to Consider

Fees and Pricing

Nothing is published. Buying houses in Bangladesh typically work on a commission of 3 to 8 percent of FOB value, sometimes as low as 2 to 3 percent on very large programmes, or on a monthly retainer plus a smaller per-order fee. Ask which model applies, whether the commission is charged on FOB or on the invoiced value including trims and packaging, whether sample and development costs are billed separately, who pays for inspection failures and rework, and whether the agency will disclose the factory's unit price. If the agency also places the order in its own name, confirm which legal entity appears on the export documents and who owns the letter of credit.
