Six functions that turn a purchase order into a delivered cargo.
Sourcing, contracting, inspection, packing, documentation and physical movement. This is the work that determines whether a raw material purchase succeeds — and it is what we are actually selling.
We maintain live allocation across domestic petrochemical complexes, refineries and accredited food ingredient producers. When a specification arrives, we do not push inventory — we screen the producer set against your technical band, packaging requirement and delivery window, then present the options with their trade-offs stated plainly.
- Product selection against the technical specification you need
- Multi-producer price comparison on identical delivery terms
- Allocation booking and volume scheduling for repeat offtake
- Alternative product advice where a specification is tighter than the job actually needs
Export is a documentation discipline before it is a shipping one. We structure the contract, agree the delivery terms, and prepare the document set the buyer’s bank and customs authority will actually accept — so the cargo is not sitting at a port waiting for a corrected certificate.
- Sales contract drafting, structured on Incoterms 2020 — the international standard for delivery terms
- Certificate of origin, COA, packing list and shipping document sets
- Third-party inspection coordination (SGS, Bureau Veritas and equivalents)
- Payment structure guidance: L/C, advance, and staged arrangements
We coordinate inland haulage, port handling, packing and vessel or container booking as a single scheduled operation, and report against it. Bulk, big-bag, drummed, flexitank and ISO tank movements are all handled, with packing selected for the route rather than for our convenience.
- Inland transport from plant to loading port
- Container, break-bulk, flexitank and ISO tank loading
- Packing specification matched to climate, route and handling
- Shipment tracking with scheduled written status reporting
Authenticity is the single most common failure point in regional raw material trade. Every consignment is offered with a mill or plant certificate of analysis, and independent pre-shipment inspection can be arranged at load port with sampling, weight and quality verification for the buyer’s account or ours.
- Producer certificate of analysis on every consignment
- Independent pre-shipment inspection and sampling on request
- Quantity and weight verification at load port
- Retained samples held against the shipment reference
Buyers new to regional sourcing routinely overpay on freight structure or under-specify their contract. We advise on realistic price bands, seasonal availability, packing economics and the contractual terms that protect a first-time counterparty.
- Price band and market condition briefings by product group
- Landed cost modelling across alternative delivery terms and routes
- Contract and payment term structuring for new counterparties
- Supplier due diligence and qualification support
Beyond spot trade we build standing arrangements: exclusive or non-exclusive distribution for producers seeking regional reach, and supply agreements with fixed schedules for manufacturers that cannot afford an availability gap.
- Regional distribution and representation agreements
- Annual and rolling supply contracts with fixed schedules
- Consignment and buffer stock arrangements
- Joint market development for new products and regions
The cargo is the easy part. The file around it is the work.
We operate from Tabriz with access to Iran’s northern land corridors and southern deep-water ports, which lets us route a consignment on the economics of the destination rather than the habit of the shipper.
From enquiry to discharge, in seven documented steps.
Each step produces a document. That is deliberate — it is what makes the process auditable rather than merely reassuring.

Producers and distributors: we are also a route to market.
If you produce material that belongs in these divisions, or distribute into a market we do not yet reach, the partnership desk handles representation, distribution and joint development arrangements.
