Yes, absolutely. Any importers who are afraid that their potential suppliers may misrepresent information about their company (including scammers, but also simply ‘creative sales people’) need to conduct supplier due diligence before agreeing to work with a new supplier.
This can be done in various ways. The easiest and fastest way is to simply check their registration status with the government. We can do a more in-depth background check. We can also put you in touch with a lawyer who can drill down on the legal side, or a consultancy that can gather extensive information about their operations. See our due diligence checks in our supply chain management services.
P.S.
If the potential supplier you’re vetting turns out to be unsuitable, and if you are struggling to find an alternative, we can work on listing and screening alternative candidates for you.
For this purpose, use our new factory identification solution, in which we locate and provide the best possible export-ready supplier for your needs.
