About us

Iberel was established in 1985 and became operational in 1986. Our initial objective was to offer electronics factories a one-stop, low cost, qualified company through which to handle many of their procurement needs.

Over the years, we have found that by working with us, our clients benefit from US market advantages and are able to consolidate many of their purchases while increasing their leverage with local suppliers. They also optimize their supply chain, resulting in benefits throughout their organization, the most significant of which would be the lowering of their total cost-of-ownership. Using Iberel for their procurement needs also frees staff to pursue higher value tasks.

The Art of Purchasing Philosophy

Iberel knows that the cost of a product is the sum of all the expenses the purchasing company incurs to acquire and use the product. It is Iberel’s philosophy that the art of purchasing is to manage that cost. As such, the nature of our business requires that we use a four-planked strategic approach at every step of the purchasing process:

• Every vendor price must be targeted for negotiation
• Combine product requests from various customers to obtain lower prices
• Systematically negotiate price discounts and/or warranty extensions, while focusing on availability or lack thereof of other options
• Always look for a reliable supplier by contacting various and comparing options
• Leverage Iberel and customer vendor relationships to improve terms offered
• Minimize the impact of price increases by:

• Negotiating their elimination
• Reducing the percentage of increase

Iberel Services Expansion

Our areas of operation have expanded to include contract manufacturing, manufacturer representation, franchised product distribution, metals sourcing, legacy product support, parts brokerage, consulting, and many other procurement-related services.

Our customer base has grown to include some of the largest and most technologically sophisticated corporations in the world – including some that have centralized corporate supply chain operations. Many of our clients have reaped the benefits of accessing a central US purchasing operation – or maintaining an independent extension of one, without having to incur any of the fixed costs and management dislocation that come with the establishment and maintenance of one.
