The Trade Shade
A durable, easy-to-use shade system built for job-site conditions. Our industrial design team worked closely with the founder — an Aussie electrician.
A durable, easy-to-use shade system built for job-site conditions. Our industrial design team worked closely with the founder — an Aussie electrician.
Sourci partnered with The Trade Shade to take the product from idea to market — owning the messy middle of design, sourcing, manufacturing, quality and logistics so the founders could focus on building their brand.
Our product and industrial design team refined the concept into a manufacturable, market-ready product — balancing function, aesthetics and cost.
We matched the brand with the right factory from our global network, negotiated pricing and managed production end-to-end.
Samples, testing and on-the-ground inspections across our offices ensured every unit met spec and the relevant standards.
Freight, documentation, customs and delivery handled — so stock landed ready for a multi-channel launch.
A founder's job-site frustration turned into a rugged, manufacturable product ready for the trade market.
