Trade International Group began it’s now almost 20 year business partnership with The Xerox Corporation in 2005.
Trade started consulting with Xerox on a contract they had with the County of San Diego which, at the time, was to supply the county with all of is printing needs. The consulting contract included estimating, production, and quality control systems. As part of the consulting agreement, Trade was also asked to develop a group of vendors that could supply printed items that Xerox could not produce on their digital equipment. The outside vendors' services that were required ranged from forms, offset and web printing, foil stamping, die cutting, bindery, variable data, labels, tapes, large format and many more. Many of the vendors have been Small Business Enterprises, Woman Owned and Disabled Veteran Owned.

Sourcing & Production
In August of 2015 Trade International Group was asked to review and consult with National University in San Diego. National University had a separate division dedicated to Sanford Harmony. That division was in the early stages of producing an educational program based on teaching children in Grades from PreK to 6th Grade, tolerance with their peer groups and how to interact with bullies. Trade was asked to produce a wide variety of products that would have to fit into a space saving carry case. Trade re-engineered the size of all the items, such as storybooks, teacher manuals, card decks, game components, and even a plush character to fit in a uniform kit. Trade was able to reduce production costs by 65% and save thousands of dollars in shipping costs.
