One firm price

The desk prices your requirement as principal — a single landed cost with origin, packing and lead time. No shopping around, no exposure of your enquiry.

Trade assurance

Why counterparties contract with the desk

Cross-border commodity trade fails on three things: unknown counterparties, unmatched documents and hidden margin. Each is handled procedurally on every single contract.

Bank-instrument only

Every contract settles against an irrevocable LC at sight from an acceptable bank. No open-account exposure, no advance payment to an unknown counterparty.

Full counterparty privacy

Buyers never see the exporter and exporters never see the buyer. The desk contracts as principal on both legs, so your enquiry, price and volume stay off the market.

Clause-matched documents

The proforma, the LC and the seller's confirmation are diffed clause by clause before shipment, so documents present cleanly and payment is not delayed by discrepancies.

Nothing to pay upfront

One flat 1% service charge on contract value, deducted once from the bank proceeds at settlement. No listing fee, no retainer, no success fee on top.

Common questions

Before you contract

The questions buyers and exporters ask most often, answered plainly. Anything else, the desk answers directly on your enquiry.

Buying in bulk?

Tell us the commodity, tonnage and discharge port. First comparative offers typically land within 24 hours, with origin, packing and lead time stated.

Post a requirement

Exporting?

List your commodity, origin and monthly capability. You quote against real LC-backed enquiries and are remitted the same day the bank payment copy is received.
