the purchase.
The work continues after sourcing: packing, transport, handling and getting the quads ready for the next step.

02 / THE WORK, END TO END
From the search
to the sale.
Vehicle research
Compare models, specification and condition against what makes sense for Mauritius.
Supplier sourcing
Find suppliers, compare quotations and arrange purchases.
Costing & pricing
Work out purchase, freight and landed costs, then set the selling price and margin.
Imports & logistics
Coordinate shipping, documents and the practical work of getting the quads to Mauritius.
Sales & customers
Handle enquiries, explain the vehicles, agree sales and follow through with buyers.
Day-to-day decisions
Keep track of the money, follow up on orders and decide what to source next.
03 / RUNNING THE BUSINESS
The decisions.
The sales.
The responsibility.
I source, import and sell quads in Mauritius, handling the process from supplier research to the final sale.
I handle the whole process, including the money committed to vehicles, imports and the costs around each sale.
The supplier’s price is only part of the decision. Freight, landed cost, selling price and money tied up before a sale all affect the margin.
It keeps me involved in both the vehicles and the numbers behind the business.
