Bringing Great Ideas and Products to Life

Michigan Global Trade and all its companies—ThinkDo, SupplyLink, Global Tribal Network, and Green Growth Global—are proudly US-owned. Each one focuses on a specific need: helping inventors launch new products, providing reliable supply and logistics, and supporting industries with high-volume sourcing. Together, we help people turn ideas into real products, find what they need at better prices, and grow with confidence.

Global Sourcing

Working with foreign factories, such as China, to manufacture your product or component necessitates a comprehensive understanding of global rules, logistics, tariffs, quality standards, and effective communication protocols.

This entails navigating a complex landscape of legal frameworks, shipping procedures, and trade agreements, while also ensuring that stringent quality expectations are met. Effective communication is paramount in bridging cultural and linguistic barriers, fostering strong working relationships, and ultimately ensuring the success of your venture in the global marketplace.

Client Testimonials

Scott M.Inventor Customer
In working with the founder of Michigan Global Trade, Mary Ann Ferris-Young, I was immediately aware of how responsive, thorough and knowledgeable she is. My professional experience with her has inspired me to continue the slow often painful slog of taking an idea from just that to a successful business venture! Mary Ann makes complicated subjects easily understandable such that the frequent feeling of being overwhelmed does not occur all that often! Her energy and optimism as well as her love for what she does is both infectious and most apparent.
Tim S.eCommerce Custom Product Customer
Working with Mary Ann and her team at Michigan Global Trade took the guess work out of sourcing in China for us. Michigan Global Trade saved us the time and money associated with building trust, managing communication, and monitoring quality while letting us taking advantage of pricing associated with outsourced manufacturing and focus on what we do best – marketing and selling our products."
MariaInventor Customer
I met Mary-Ann at the Michigan Inventors Coalition conference. She reviewed my product and assured me she could not only manufacture it but also handle the import/export. She went to China on my behalf, set everything up, came back with an amazing quote for not only the prototype but tooling as well. Any inventor knows this is a critical piece to have, knowing how much it cost to make your product. We also have created a bond and will continue to work together on other numerous projects helping other inventors. It has been such a pleasure to work with her and I highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much for everything!!
AmyInventor Customer
Michigan Global Trade has been integral in the growth of my Woman Owned Small Business. Mary Ann is truly a gift to a budding entrepreneur. She is thorough, thoughtful, creative and straight-forward in her approach to planning production and delivery of goods. Her depth of experience and knowledge has been so important in streamlining cost and production time, as well as navigating the nuances of tax, trade and tariff issues. I trust her with my products, knowing that they will be made ethically, on time, and of high quality. She has vetted her sources carefully and has an incredible relationship with her crew. She has taught me so much along the way and is always willing to give me the time and attention that I need as I navigate this new enterprise in a harsh business environment. I am so grateful to have her on my side!
