We're a new operation, and we'd rather show you our method than ask for blind trust. This is the standard every supplier and every shipment is held to.
You always know which stage you're in and what happens next.
You share product spec, target price and destination. Within 24 hours you get a CIF estimate and an FTA (EVFTA/CPTPP) tariff check — indicative, no commitment.
We build a long list from verified sources and screen 5–10 manufacturers on price, MOQ, lead time and genuine export capability.
Each finalist passes the 5-point check below. Only suppliers scoring ≥7/10 with no zero-score reach your shortlist.
Samples ordered and evaluated. Pre-shipment inspection coordinated with a licensed third party (Vinacontrol / SGS / BV) before the container is sealed.
Freight quotes compared, export documents reviewed for consistency, FTA certificate of origin checked. Goods move.
Five checks. Every one documented. This is the difference between a name off Alibaba and a supplier you can ship with.
Business tax code (MST) cross-checked against Vietnam's national business registry. A real, registered entity — not a trading front.
Export licence / history verified; for food, FDA or EU establishment number checked where required.
HACCP / ISO / BRC / GlobalGAP etc. — validity dates confirmed and issuing body verified for the product category.
A live video factory tour, or an on-site visit for suppliers near Hanoi. We see the production line and warehouse — not a brochure.
At least one existing export customer reference or a bill-of-lading record (masked accepted).
A new agency claiming to do everything is a red flag. Here are our lines.
Zero commission from suppliers. Our incentive is aligned with yours.
Inspection and freight billed at cost with the invoice shown.
Every supplier profile, quote and check is written down and dated.
If a deadline slips or a strategy is weak, you hear it early — no sugar-coating.
Vantrade acts as sourcing & operations coordinator.
