How we work

One clear process.Both sides protected.

From the first requirement to the cargo arriving, you know who you are dealing with, what happens next and who is accountable.

Our role

Sourcing agent, not a broker chain.

We work directly with verified buyers and sellers. We find the right counterparty, check them properly, structure the deal and coordinate it to delivery. The contract is signed directly between buyer and seller.

Step by step

From requirement to delivery.

Timings depend on the product, the route and how quickly documents are provided.

  1. 01

    Requirement

    You send product, specification, quantity, delivery terms, port and timing. We reply honestly if it is a fit.

  2. 02

    KYC & NCNDA

    Company documents and sanctions screening on both sides. An NCNDA protects everyone's contacts and terms.

  3. 03

    LOI / ICPO

    The buyer confirms intent in writing. We check it is complete and backed by a real, funded buyer.

  4. 04

    Offer (FCO)

    A verified seller issues a firm offer with price, specification, terms and procedure.

  5. 05

    SPA

    Buyer and seller negotiate and sign the sales and purchase agreement, with payment instrument and inspection terms.

  6. 06

    Inspection & shipment

    Independent inspection at loading, shipping documents and delivery. We coordinate until the cargo arrives.

Fees

Every deal is different. So is every fee.

No fixed tariffs and nothing to pay to enquire.

01

No upfront fees

We never ask buyers or sellers to pay before a deal. Enquiries and first assessment are free.

02

Agreed in writing

Our fee is agreed and documented before any introduction, so there are no surprises.

03

Paid on performance

We are paid when the deal completes and the cargo is delivered, not before.

We do not guarantee that a deal will complete. Prices and availability depend on the market.
