Two principals. One in each country.
Almost every firm in this corridor is one-sided: an Indian consultant with a Russian “network”, or a Russian firm with an Indian contact. We are two principals, resident in the two countries, who between us can stand in front of any counterparty in this trade.
Three commitments we do not bend on
A principal in India and a principal in Russia. Every counterparty we put in front of you has been visited by one of us, in person. We do not forward introductions we have not checked, and we do not sell you a list.
We act for one side of a trade and we say which side in writing. We never take a fee from both. Your interests are the ones we are protecting — on price, on quality, on terms.
Fixed fees, quoted and agreed before work starts. You know what a certification or a supplier search costs up front, and we are not paid out of a margin you cannot see.
How we deliver a catalogue this wide
We orchestrate rather than execute. A vetted panel of certification consultants, customs brokers, freight forwarders, translators, accountants and lawyers in both countries does the specialist work under our management.
You deal with one firm, in your own language, on one invoice, with one person accountable. We test every vendor on our own work before a client’s name goes near them, and when something goes wrong it is our problem to fix, not the vendor’s to explain.
What we are actually selling is accountability across a border. The specialists cannot offer that, because each of them only sees their own step.
