IMPORTANT NOTE:
We serve as Buyer-Seller in our trades. By this, we mean buying and selling products of diverse kinds while still serving as Manufacturers' Representative in some other cases where doing so would only make the best business sense. We thrive on the strength of our firmness, reliability, and trustworthiness.

Our primary goal is to 'help our clients reach more', in all sense of the word. To this end, we tirelessly and diligently provide for our clients, but more importantly we ensure that each party experiences a win-win situation at all times. We will negotiate trade terms, process transactions, close and conclude transactions. Take note that for us to consider and proceed with any proposed trade, we will ask you to provide the following critical preliminary data: 

• In the case of a Seller:
1. Where is the Seller's product under consideration?
2. How much is in-tank, vessel, or storage and for how long has product been in there? 
3. What is the Full Name of the Company in Ownership (a Title Holder)? 
4. Where is the Titleholder registered to do business? What country and province? 
5. What is the landline phone number of the Titleholder? 
6. What is the name of the papered Mandate? 
7. Where is the Mandate registered to do business? What Country and province? 
8. What is the Mandate's landline phone number?
9. And, most often, we will also request for an "OFFER TO SELL" (OTS), aka "Soft Offer".
• In the case of a Buyer:
1. What is the product and quantity of product under consideration?
2. What is the name of the End-Buyer (principal contact)?
3. What is the landline phone number of the principal contact?
4. What is the Legal Corporate name of the buying company?
5. Where is the company registered to do business? Its legal address MUST include Country and Province?
6. What is the landline phone number of the company?
7. Who is the authorized procurement officer for the company?
8. What is the landline phone number of the authorized procurement officer of the company?
9. We will also ask that our "REQUEST FOR QUOTE" (RFQ) be filled by the End-Buyer, (end-buyer or its authorized rep may ask for our RFQ format? 

If you are still reading this note, we congratulate you as one of the few who is sincerely interested in closing/consumating a transaction. We welcome deals from all professionals, however, we will not accept offers from ghost buyers/principals. This refers to a situation where we do not have direct access to principal traders in view. To allay the usual fears among agents and affiliates, we do provide an Irrevocable Perfomance Guarantee (IPG) to everyone that makes it possible for us to directly access the principal traders under consideration. All referring or facilitating agents, brokers, adn professionals will thereafter take a back seat with our IPG in hand in order to allow us carry on with what we require to successfully close on our deals. As you may know, 99% of deals from professionals, agents and brokers in this industry are bogus; not solely because they are not who they claim to be, but also because most of these people lack the wherewithal to successfully close on these complex transactions. Therefore, in order not to be part of this terrible statistics of predictable deals that fail, we have put in place certain guidelines to help weed-out the unwanted.

So if you are not directly connected to an END-BUYER, SUPPLIER, REFINERY, or MANUFACTURER (i.e. the official TITLEHOLDER of a product under consideration), by all means please share the information herein with your direct contacts.

As commodities trading moves into the future, we will continue to expand our product base in order to broaden our international exposure and reach. Therefore, we welcome new proposals from mandates, allocation holders, title holders, JVs, brokers, accountants, lawyers and other professionals involved in commodities. However, we do not get involved in long chains; if you have long chains, you must be prepared to introduce your direct source and take a back seat.

So far, if all these still look good and sound acceptable to you, please by all means know that we'd be glad to hear from you.

Thank you!

Thoughts for the MOMENT!

"Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it."
- George Halas: a ballplayer, coach, and founder of the Chicago Bears.

"You are the right person, this is the right time, you've paid your dues, you're thinking the right thoughts, you're doing the right things, and this very moment, you are exactly where you're supposed to be... poised for the happiest time of your life."
- Message from the Universe

"So you've got a problem? That's good! Why? Because repeated victories over your problems are the rungs on your ladder to success. With each victory you grow in wisdom, stature and experience. You become a bigger, better, more successful person each time you mend a problem and tackle and conquer it with a positive mental attitude."
- W. Clement Stone

"Repeat anything often enough and it will become a part of your way of thinking."
- Hilton Johnson, CoachTrainer

IN THE MIDDLE OF DIFFICULTY LIES OPPORTUNITY

You can not have success without dealing with problems.
Look for your opportunity in every difficulty
Instead of being paralyzed at the thought of difficulty in every opportunity.
Each new experience brings with it the seed of your success.
Even your current difficulties have within them opportunity.
Welcome your problems as opportunities.
Each moment is your greatest challenge and the best thing that ever happened to you.
The more difficult your problem, the greater the challenge in working it out.
When it's dark enough, you can see the stars.

Thoughts becomes things, choose the good ones!!!

Intro to 'URPIB'
This is to inform all readers of our blog that we also do reckon with FTN Exporting's UNIFORM RULES AND PRACTICE FOR INTERMEDIARIES AND BROKERS (URPIB).
 
URPIB encompasses a set of rules that are recommended for all commodity export dealers, and specifically designed for private or corporate intermediaries, brokers, agents and those intermediaries who are described as intermediate ‘buyers’ and ‘sellers’ worldwide. URPIB is considered to be the first uniform set of guiding rules of its kind, created by FTN Exporting and specifically for intermediary usage. Ideally such rules are ideally applied once FTN doctrine of trade has been studied.
 
Our guiding principles are based on strict but safe international trade rules of application such as: UCP500, URC522, Incoterms 2000, ICC Rules of Agency, UCP600, URPIB, etc.
