Supplier Verification & Factory Due Diligence
Know exactly who you are buying from before any money moves.
What this is
Verification answers the question every overseas buyer eventually asks: is this company what it says it is? We check the paperwork — registration, legal status, the claims made to you — and then we look at the factory itself: the production lines, the capacity, the people.
What you receive is not a feeling but a document: written findings, photographic evidence and a clear recommendation your team can review, challenge and file. If the supplier passes, you proceed with confidence. If they do not, you have lost nothing but the cost of finding out.
Who it's for
- Buyers who found a supplier online and need certainty before committing
- Retail chains and regulated buyers with supplier compliance requirements
- Companies re-auditing an existing supplier relationship
Why buyers need this
A polished website and an export claim prove nothing. From your desk, every supplier looks legitimate.
Advance payments to unchecked suppliers are where sourcing goes wrong — and by then it is too late.
Retailers and regulated buyers increasingly require documented supplier due diligence on file.

Frequently asked questions
Can you verify a supplier we found ourselves?
Yes. You bring the supplier; we bring the scrutiny. The engagement works exactly the same whether we identified the supplier or you did.
What happens if the supplier fails your checks?
We report the findings honestly — walking away from a bad supplier before you commit is the cheapest problem you will ever solve. If you wish, we restart the search for a verified alternative.
