What we do
We guide you through the entire international transaction — from finding the right counterparty to coordinating delivery and documentation.
We match manufacturers with buyers and vice versa, represent your interest in negotiations and carry the transaction through to close.
We select and vet suppliers across Asian and European markets — production capacity, quality, references and legal status before the first order.
We help plan market entry: channels, pricing, deal structure and the formal requirements on both sides of the border.
Pro forma invoices, contracts, Incoterms, customs documents and certificates — we keep the transaction compliant with EU and origin-country rules.
We negotiate pricing, payment terms and safeguards, then draft and review agreements to limit risk on your side.
We coordinate transport, timelines and document flow between supplier, freight forwarder and buyer — one point of contact across the route.
Expertise + Network
An effective cross-border deal needs two things at once: an understanding of regulation and market reality, plus access to partners you can trust. We bring them together.
The result: faster access to the right counterparty and a transaction run safely, with a single point of accountability.
How we work
A transparent process where you always know the stage and who is accountable.
We learn your need: product, volumes, target market, budget and timeline. We agree scope and the fee model.
We search our network and the market, then build a shortlist of suppliers or buyers matched to your criteria.
We verify the counterparty, collect offers and negotiate terms — price, payment, quality and timelines.
We draft or review the agreement, Incoterms and transaction documents, and finalise payment and safeguard terms.
We coordinate production, quality control, transport and documents through to delivery and settlement.

FAQ
