to the first concrete results
from renegotiation alone, without changing suppliers
Research, auditing, and qualification are paid for by the buyer — that is what keeps the recommendation free. Once the partnership is established, commercial representation of the manufacturer is paid by them, and that is stated up front, not afterward.

Procurement consulting services for manufacturers
Each service solves a specific problem in an industrial supply chain: from building the purchasing department to finding and qualifying suppliers in China.
China sourcing and supplier qualification
Identification of qualified manufacturers, on-site technical audits, commercial negotiation, and the structuring of a partnership between your company and the Asian factory. Rekowsky Serviços acts as the buyer's representative in China, giving you confidence in the choice of strategic partners.
Where we stand: we are not a trading company, and we do not manage the logistics or customs side of importing. After the qualification and structuring stage, commercial operations run directly between your company and the supplier, with our ongoing support in representation and relationship management at origin.
We solve purchasing cost in any industrial category
Product lines we represent exclusively
Beyond the consulting, Fábio Rekowsky Serviços is the exclusive commercial representative of two product lines for the Brazilian industrial market.
Printed circuit boards (PCB)
Exclusive Brazil-wide representation of a Chinese manufacturer of rigid, flexible, and multilayer boards. Quoting runs from your Gerber files, with the specification checked first, and the purchase is made directly from the approved factory.

RALLTEK power supplies and chargers
Exclusive RALLTEK distribution for southern Brazil: switching supplies, industrial DIN rail supplies, battery chargers, and compact UPS units.

What changes when someone from outside looks at your purchasing
Mid-sized manufacturers leave 10 to 30% of their purchasing budget on the table. Not for lack of will: for lack of structure, market information, and negotiating power.
Knowledge an internal manager has no time to build
What the current market price is, who else supplies the category, which margin is negotiable. Market information requires continuous tracking, and whoever runs the operation does not have the calendar for it.
In China, the gap is wider still
Without field presence and a track record with the factories, quality, lead time, and fraud risk all climb. A catalog and a platform are no substitute for someone who has stood on the plant floor.
When choosing the factory, the buyer is who pays
During research, auditing, and qualification, we are paid by whoever hires us. That is what makes it possible to reject a supplier at audit, press hard on price, and where warranted recommend not buying at all. Once the partnership is established, commercial representation of the manufacturer is paid by them — stated up front.
How we deliver a measurable result
The method is the same across every service. What changes is how deep each stage goes.
Assess before proposing
Every relationship starts with a 30-minute call that maps categories, volume, and bottlenecks. Without that step, any proposal would be guesswork.
Execute alongside your team
Negotiations and supplier qualification are run with your internal team, not in place of it. The knowledge stays in the company.
Measure and document the result
Cost per category before and after, percentage reduction, quality and lead time of the new suppliers, all in one comparable report.

Common questions about procurement consulting
What does an industrial procurement consultant do?
An industrial procurement consultant structures and improves how a company buys: mapping spend by category, qualifying and formally approving suppliers, running negotiations backed by market data, and putting indicators in place to keep costs under control. In practice, they bring the method and market knowledge an internal team has no time to build.
How much can a company save with procurement consulting?
The typical reduction on industrial procurement projects runs between 10% and 30% of acquisition costs. Renegotiating with current suppliers usually yields 5% to 15% without changing partners; switching to new domestic sources or to China sourcing can push savings to the upper end. First results generally appear within 90 days.
Which regions does Fábio Rekowsky Serviços serve?
The company is based in Jaraguá do Sul, state of SC, in the industrial belt of southern Brazil, and serves manufacturers in Santa Catarina, Paraná, and Rio Grande do Sul on site. Companies in other states are served remotely, with visits at the critical stages of the project. Supplier sourcing is carried out in Brazil and in China.
What is the difference between a purchasing agent and a trading company?
A trading company buys the product and resells it at its own margin: it owns the goods, and its interest is the margin on the transaction. A purchasing agent neither buys nor resells — they are hired by the buyer to find, audit, and qualify the supplier, and the order is placed directly between the company and the factory. Fábio Rekowsky Serviços acts as a purchasing agent in that phase, paid by the buyer. Once the partnership is established, it may go on to represent the manufacturer commercially, which is disclosed to the client. What we never do, at any point, is buy for resale or run the import operation.
How do we start a project with Fábio Rekowsky Serviços?
The first step is a 30-minute assessment call, free and with no obligation, to understand your purchasing categories, annual volume, and main bottlenecks. A proposal with scope, timeline, and investment follows from it. You can reach us on WhatsApp at +55 47 99222-6272, by email at [email protected], or through the contact form.
Shall we look at your company's purchasing costs?
The first step is a 30-minute call, free and with no obligation. We look together at the main bottlenecks in your supply chain and identify where the largest cost reduction opportunities sit, whether with domestic suppliers or through sourcing in China.
