About Tandom
Building the foreign trade arm
that was missing.
Tandom is built by founders who've built, scaled and sold supply chain and AI companies backed by investors such as UPS, Mercado Livre and some of Latin America's top venture capital firms, with prior investment banking and private equity experience at institutions such as JPMorgan.
Who we are
Built by experts in
supply chain, trade, AI and finance.
Co-founder and CEO of Mandaê, a logistics startup scaled to US$30M in revenue, US$20M raised, sold to Nuvemshop (the Shopify of LatAm). Backed by UPS, Mercado Libre, DHL Express's former US CEO, Qualcomm Ventures, Monashees, FJ Labs and Valor. At Tandom he leads product and customer relationships.
Why we exist
We lived this problem.
Brazilian manufacturers buy the same components every month, almost always from the same two or three suppliers. Sourcing new suppliers, verifying who actually manufactures and running the import from order to dock takes time, technical expertise and coordination. When too few alternatives are evaluated, companies can pay more than they need to.
Tandom combines a foreign-trade team with technology to broaden the market search, organize supplier validation, structure the purchase and coordinate the operation. Your team retains the technical and commercial decisions.
Tandom also builds foreign-trade tools for the US market, at tandom.ai.
How we work
Three commitments we do not negotiate.
Specifications, prices and suppliers never circulate to other clients. What is yours does not become our asset.
We represent the buyer. We take no commission, rebate or incentive from any factory, on any order.
Supplier, payment structure, route: the engine recommends on your total cost and your cash flow. Our margin isn't an input.
