How it works
Fromstorefronttoshippedcontainer.
From discovery to delivery — and where we step back so you deal direct.
The four steps
Discovery, sample, deal, delivery.
Step 1
Verify
Registration, export licence and certificates checked before a storefront goes live.
Step 2
Sample
Request a paid sample and approve it before committing to bulk.
Step 3
Negotiate
Agree terms, MOQ, pricing and Incoterms direct with the exporter.
Step 4
Ship
Ships direct to your port, with all documents travelling with the goods.
