Scoutbee was co-created with Fortune 500 companies like Walmart and Unilever to give suppliers better access to real business opportunities. Our network-based marketplace makes it easier to identify and connect with companies actively searching for new partners—helping you build strong, strategic relationships when the timing is right.

Scoutbee is built to connect buyers and suppliers based on real-time opportunities and fit. By leveraging rich, detailed supplier profiles and active search data, Scoutbee helps ensure the right suppliers are matched with the right opportunities—when it matters most. Both sides benefit from more efficient discovery and communication, with built-in messaging tools that eliminate the need for cold outreach and streamline early engagement.

Scoutbee is for buyers and suppliers in any category, spanning direct and indirect, goods and services, and all geographies.

Scoutbee helps buyers and suppliers connect at the right moment—when there's an active opportunity or search underway. While you can still reach out to buyers directly, it's often difficult for them to manage the volume of inbound messages. Many prefer to use Scoutbee so they can connect more efficiently—when there's a real need to fill.

By signing up, you'll stay in the loop on relevant leads from some of the world's biggest brands—no more cold outreach or guesswork. Just timely, qualified opportunities when they matter most.

Scoutbee focuses on helping buyers and suppliers connect—kickstarting new relationships and surfacing fresh opportunities. Once a buyer chooses a supplier for a specific opportunity, day-to-day operations often move to platforms like HICX or Ariba for ongoing relationship management.

If you're already a supplier to one of our partner brands, keeping your profile active on Scoutbee still offers key advantages:
1. Save time – Maintain your supplier information in one central place, rather than updating it across multiple systems.
2. Discover new opportunities – Stay visible to other leading global companies and tap into new sourcing opportunities through the platform.
