Link
We link your market need and product requirement to the relevant people, decisions, and supply path.
About LIKA
LIKA connects the people and work behind dependable supply.
Brands and distributors work through one accountable partner from the initial product requirement to ongoing supply.
The principles behind the name
Four principles define how LIKA works.
Link, Integration, Know-How, and Accelerate describe how we connect stakeholders, coordinate the work, apply experience, and move the right decisions forward.
Integration
We connect the product, supplier path, private label, packaging, quality expectations, and supply plan.
Know-How
We apply relevant product, application, sourcing, and program know-how to make the next decision clearer.
Accelerate
We create earlier clarity and move the right decisions forward before avoidable delay or rework builds up.
How we stay connected
Based in Vancouver. Connected to the work in Asia.
Your team works through one Vancouver-based LIKA contact. We coordinate suppliers, production, quality, and logistics with our partners in Asia—and keep you updated at every stage.
Vancouver-based contact
One accountable LIKA relationship during the North American business day.
Sourcing partners in Asia
Coordination closer to suppliers, local communication, and business practices.
Connected through delivery
Production, consolidation, logistics, and shipment updates managed as one supply path.
The gap we help close
Finding a factory is not the same as building a dependable program.
Between a market opportunity and ongoing supply sits a chain of decisions. LIKA connects that work so requirements stay clear, handoffs stay aligned, and accountability remains visible.
Market opportunity
The customer need, application, commercial goal, and product requirement.
Connected work
Supplier fit, development, private label, quality, communication, and delivery.
Dependable program
A clearer path between the requirement and ongoing supply.
One connected operating layer
Dependable supply takes more than manufacturing.
LIKA keeps product development, private label, quality, logistics, and ongoing supply connected through one accountable relationship.
Market requirements
Application, customer, and commercial context.
Supply relationships
Manufacturing and supply paths suited to the program.
Product development
Samples, specifications, and performance expectations.
Brand and packaging
Private label, packaging, and documentation.
Quality visibility
Clear expectations, checks, and issue communication.
Ongoing supply
Consolidation, logistics handoffs, shipment visibility, and delivery coordination.
Strongest fit
Built for brands and distributors with a market to protect.
LIKA is strongest when you have an ongoing product program to build, improve, or protect—and an established route to market.
- You have customers, a brand, or a category position to protect.
- The opportunity requires more than a one-off purchase.
- Product, quality, packaging, and supply need to work together.
Manufacturers and end-user companies with complex product or supply requirements are also welcome to start a project.
