The world of international lifestyle sourcing

International lifestyle sourcing opens up a world of possibilities. You want to stand out with unique products, surprising styles, and brands you won’t find on every street corner. At the same time, you want to maintain an overview, source efficiently, and be sure you’re selecting products that fit your shop, studio, or project. At TICA, you’ll discover international collections that help you keep your assortment original, relevant, and commercially attractive. You don’t have to travel far to find global inspiration, as everything comes together in our branches and in the webshop.

A fresh mix of international styles

International lifestyle sourcing is about finding the right mix between trusted favorites and new influences. It’s precisely this combination that ensures customers remain surprised and your collection stays interesting to browse or step into. At TICA, you walk through a varied range that brings together brands from different countries. Think of styles ranging from calm Scandinavian to boldly colorful, from minimalist to atmospheric and warm. By walking around yourself, feeling items, and seeing different combinations, a collection that aligns with your vision will naturally emerge.

Discovery without borders

For many entrepreneurs, international sourcing is a logical step toward growth. It provides more variety, new stories for your shop, and a fresh look. At the same time, you want to stay in control of your choices. The way TICA presents international brands allows you to intuitively see what will and won’t work for your customers. With products organized into atmospheric areas and themes, you can immediately see which combinations complement each other. This makes international sourcing accessible, even if you usually find it a bit daunting to shop off the beaten path.

Flexible sourcing for every situation

International lifestyle sourcing without borders also means you want to stay flexible. Maybe you’re looking for just a few items for a seasonal display, or perhaps you’re working on a large project that requires high volumes. At TICA, both are possible. You can buy per piece or in larger quantities, ensuring you never take more than you need. This prevents inventory risk and gives you the freedom to refresh your stock regularly. This flexibility is a major advantage, especially if you work with fast-changing displays or styling assignments.

Inspiring locations that help you choose

Our locations are designed to help international buyers find their way easily. The spacious displays help you make decisions faster and provide instant inspiration for your shop or project. Are you working on a new look for a hospitality interior or are you a project designer? Then TICA Projects Venlo or Aalsmeer is the place to be. If you’re looking for accessories or working on a new shop layout, a visit to our TICA locations will help you make targeted choices. You can see at a glance which products make sense for your project, what fits together, and how to combine different styles into a powerful whole.

Services that make your sourcing day easier

If you’re traveling from afar, you naturally want your sourcing trip to be smooth and relaxed. That’s why you’ll find convenient services at TICA to make your day easier. Consider our hotel deals that allow you to stay nearby, so you can start your visit refreshed. The TICAfé also helps you recharge during your shopping round. A good cup of coffee or a hot lunch provides the energy to continue with renewed focus. And if you’re buying in bulk, our packing and transport services make it easy for you. Your purchases are securely packed and shipped, so you can travel home with peace of mind.

International sourcing anytime, anywhere

But international lifestyle sourcing doesn’t stop when you leave the branch. Many entrepreneurs want to be able to restock or find new inspiration at any time. That’s why the TICA webshop offers the possibility to shop 24 hours a day. You can browse a wide range of international brands, fill your cart whenever it suits you, and have the order delivered wherever you like. Whether you want to quickly reorder a few products or are looking for a specific atmosphere for a new season, online sourcing makes it flexible and clear.

Staying in motion with global trends

Global trends are constantly changing. By regularly incorporating new international influences, you stay relevant to your customers. Think of soft natural materials that are popular worldwide, striking colors that are on the rise, or atmosphere-based themes that get your shop ready for the new season. International lifestyle sourcing at TICA gives you access to these changes. You walk through styles that suit different target groups and price points, allowing you to intuitively see what fits your market.

A collection that keeps surprising

What makes international sourcing especially attractive is that you keep surprising yourself. New products, different shapes, and unexpected materials give your collection new energy. It helps you stay creative, to keep innovating, and to give your customers the feeling that there is always something new to discover.

TICA as a sourcing partner

By using TICA as your sourcing partner, international lifestyle sourcing becomes accessible, inspiring, and efficient. You have access to international brands, flexible buying options, inspiring displays, and convenient services that help you get the most out of your visit. This way, you build a collection step by step that makes your business strong and distinctive.
