What we do in each place
The same four things, in every hub. The buyer pays us. No factory does.
Supplier checks
The supplier is read from the US customs record and the public lists: a factory or a trading company, who else it ships to, any flag.
Certificate checks
Each certificate is checked with the body that issued it, not with the supplier.
Verified quotes
Quotes from factories that make the product, on the factory's own paper, with licence, date, minimum order and validity.
Inspections
Through partners on the ground, for existing clients, at $400 per inspector-day.
China
The widest range of products in Asia, and the most trading companies presenting as factories. The check tells the two apart from the licence and the record.

How the reach is used
Each product draws on the record and the hubs in its own way.
Supplier & Price Check
Who else the supplier ships to, and whether it is a factory or a trader, comes from the US customs record we hold for every hub on the map.
$700Price Case
Three to five verified quotes come from factories in the hubs that make your product, and the landed-cost table prices your current country against one alternative.
QuotedCustom work
A new factory is found, checked and qualified in the hub that makes the product; inspections run through partners on the ground.
