Challenges
Supplier Discovery Takes Weeks
Searching B2B directories, cold-emailing brokers and chasing referrals to build a shortlist of viable suppliers takes import teams 3–6 weeks per commodity category — before a single due diligence check is run.
Due Diligence Is Incomplete by Default
Checking sanctions lists, beneficial ownership, trade registries and financial history across 12+ sources requires specialist subscriptions and legal bandwidth most teams don't have. The result is shortcuts that create compliance exposure.
Contract Negotiation Stalls Every Deal
Standard import supply agreements take 2–4 weeks to draft, review and negotiate. Legal resource is shared across the business; every new supplier joins a queue that slows commercial momentum.
Advance Payments Carry Full Counterparty Risk
Wiring 30–50% advance payment to a new supplier before delivery is a significant financial exposure. Most import teams have no escrow mechanism for international transfers — funds sent are funds at risk.
Logistics Costs Are Unknown Until Too Late
Freight quotes arrive at the end of the sourcing process. Route options, multi-modal combinations and actual landed cost are unknown until goods are ready to ship — by which point deal terms are already fixed.
Compliance Teams Become the Bottleneck
AML, KYB and sanctions screening is run as a separate manual process by a shared compliance team. Deal velocity becomes dependent on compliance bandwidth, not commercial readiness.
