Aytan Litwin
Founder & President
Aytan Litwin has been globally connected for most of his life. Born in the USA to an international academic family, Aytan spent his formative years globetrotting between Berkley, California and Israel. This worldwide exposure fueled Aytan's passion for travel, which led to his exploration of developing countries with extensive travel throughout Asia. It was clear early on that his future would be directly involved with international business.
After some initial hard knocks, he started importing furniture and decorative products from Bali and India. The success of this first endeavor created the opportunity to delve deeper into the Asian market, this time focusing on Vietnam and China. What these initial years in international business taught Aytan was the value of communication. He immersed himself in the cultures of the countries he worked in and took the time to get to know people. The lasting friendships with local business people ultimately built trust—a key factor in his success.
After several years in Asia, Aytan returned to the west coast of the United States. He started his first North American based business importing handmade artwork and beautifully crafted frames. He once again utilized his strong connection with Asian manufacturers to deliver high quality products at a great value. Eventually, the wholesale and hospitality industries noticed, creating a new demand. To fill the need, INT Sourcing was established, offering international savvy, interpersonal communication and intelligent purchasing to the hospitality and multifamily markets.
Aytan's passion for his business ensures that INT Sourcing will always meet the high demand for quality, value and execution that customers expect and deserve.
