Speak to a Supply Chain Expert

LATAMGuy has brokered more than 3,500,000 units across 300 SKUs from collectibles to mobility scooters – consistently saving clients 30 percent on both costs and lead times.

Below, find real-life examples of how LATAMGuy helped businesses switch to Latin American suppliers and the resulting benefits. Some of them may be relevant to you.

You can save more money than expected, with no quality compromise

A renowned collectible brand faced a crisis: their costly but reliable American maker of resin sculptures decided to close shop. They turned to factories in Asia but none they tried could match the quality. LATAMGuy introduced them to two suppliers in Mexico.

The brand now saves 23 percent more per item than they expected, with the same excellent quality.

Diversify sources while meeting strict standards

A mobility scooter company wanted to reduce dependence on Asian and European vendors while meeting strict FDA standards. LATAMGuy presented six Mexican suppliers that ticked every box.

The company has since invested $300,000 across eight SKUs.

How to fix quality and land a seven-figure buyout

A card game business was frustrated with late deliveries and inconsistent quality from Chinese suppliers. Through LATAMGuy, they fully shifted to Colombian manufacturers.

They have since produced 200,000 units and the owner landed a seven-figure buyout.

Use reliable suppliers and outdo the competition

A book publisher wanted to move away from unreliable Asian suppliers. LATAMGuy helped them switch to its Latin American manufacturing network.

They became the second fastest-growing independent publisher in 2022... while competitors couldn't get their products out of China.

How LATAMGuy guarantees you a 30% cut in costs and lead times: The facts

When sourcing your figures from Asia or the U.S., you face three major burdens: labor costs, shipping times, and tariffs.

  1. China's labor costs overtook Mexico's in 2013 and have doubled since. A manufacturing worker's pay now amounts to $840 a month in China, and $4,300 in the U.S.

    With Mexico's modest $480 wage for a skilled worker, you save $4,320 per worker per year over China and $45,840 over the U.S.
  2. Each day your figures sit on a boat from Asia is a day your fans wait and you don't make sales. That boat takes 21 days to cross from Shanghai to California.

    Meanwhile, shipments from Mexico reach you in a mere 3 days. 3 days and your figures land in your fans' hands and cash is flowing in.
  3. Tariffs may cost you an additional $5.30 to $25.00 for every $100 spent on imports from China.

    With Mexico, that money stays in your pocket, thanks to the U.S.–Mexico–Canada free trade agreement.

Resin figures, especially those requiring more labor or multiple production processes, have more competitive landed costs from Latin America.

Latin America, especially Mexico, is also more competitive for bulky items that are costly to ship.

What does all this mean for you?

More profit

Cut these needless expenses, cut the waiting time, and you save a minimum of 30 percent on your total costs and speed up your time to market. This could be money to invest into new figures or marketing – or just keep more profit.

Even when Asian manufacturing seems cheaper, Latin America is better value at a lower overall cost because of proximity, better quality control, local support, and dependable suppliers.

Peace of mind

And let’s not forget peace of mind. Recent years have shown how vulnerable supply chains are to sudden, crippling disruptions. During the COVID-19 chaos, shipping times from Asia stretched to 159 days and shipping costs jumped from $1,250 per container to $15,000.

Inconsistent quality, poor transparency, time zone differences, and cultural barriers make things worse.

LATAMGuy's vetted manufacturing network in Latin America eliminates these problems – without the busywork.

Consider also that China had 26 public holidays in 2023, while Mexico had just 8. There is simply less time in China to get things done. For instance, around the Lunar New Year, Chinese factories close for about a month.

Skip the busywork

You are not alone if you feel paralyzed at the mere thought of spending more than 200 hours of work spread over several months – finding suppliers, researching, calling them, setting up initial talks, sending specs, sending samples, negotiating contracts, figuring out local business laws and culture, monitoring quality, and coordinating logistics...

Now see how LATAMGuy’s local expertise, partnerships, and tested approach take you straight to the good stuff.

The good stuff

Due diligence at LATAMGuy is comparable to that of billion-dollar firms, guaranteeing a curated supplier network that is as good as U.S. and Canadian makers – often with newer factories and equipment.

You cut the cost and lead time, but keep the quality...

Your collectibles turn iconic characters from screen and print into physical masterpieces. Your artists pour their hearts into every intricate detail.

Our dependable Latin American manufacturers act as an extension of your brand, consistently meeting your high standards for detailing and durability.

Fans get the same lifelike figures they love, only faster. You save 30 percent on costs and lead times.

... and you spread the risk and create capacity for growth

A single supplier, especially overseas, is risky. Diversifying your supply base means your figures keep moving even if one supplier has issues.

The collectibles brand whose U.S. supplier closed now works with two Mexican suppliers, erasing worries of production bottlenecks and increasing output capacity.

What could you achieve with a more reliable supplier base that can make as much product as your buyers demand?

And the best part is...

You pay nothing upfront.
We assume the initial risk.

Normally, you would have sunk tens of thousands into this project before even seeing a prototype.

LATAMGuy introduces a risk-free model: you pay nothing until you place your first purchase order.

Supplier research, matching, negotiations, agreements, samples, and everything in between are at our risk.

You only pay once you are confident that your Latin American suppliers will deliver your figures with impeccable quality.
