Bank Account Details

Payment fraud is a constant risk when importing products. As such, we compare the supplier’s bank account details to their company name and registered address to assess the risk.

Product Test Reports

Product compliance is essential when importing products to the United States, Europe, and Australia. Therefore, we request, analyze, and verify existing test reports to assess their compliance track record.

ISO Certification

ISO 9001 certification hints that the supplier has some sort of quality management system in place. It’s also relevant when assessing if the supplier is a manufacturer or trading company.

BSCI and Sedex
