Make the deal workable.
Not just imaginable.
WGTO’s direct role is independent research, commercial qualification, introductions and coordination in tangible-goods trade. Each engagement is scoped around the actual product, parties and jurisdiction. Open a workstream below to see the questions, outputs and accountable specialists.
Describe your requirement ↗One commercial question.
Many moving parts.
Trade work is not a single introduction. Explore how the surrounding workstreams become a practical plan, with licensed providers engaged where required.
Sourcing
Specify the input, identify potential producers and confirm the buyer’s actual requirement before requesting offers.
Open a workstream.
Every case begins with scope and ownership. These pathways describe the questions we can organize. Specialist availability and authorization depend on the jurisdiction and engagement.
01Physical trade & sourcingA real requirement, a comparable supplier set.+
Define product grade, certification, volume, destination, timing and the buyer’s current basis. After the buyer confirms a need, compare written offers from suitable producers or authorized sellers. We do not present a market signal as a purchase order.
02Tenders & formal procurementEligibility before bid effort.+
Review the issuer’s original notice and documents, deadline, award criteria, mandatory licences, bid security and submission channel. A bid or consortium is developed only with the bidder’s authorization; WGTO does not claim influence over the awarding authority.
03Logistics & customsMake the delivered route legible.+
Map origin, destination, port pair, freight mode, customs classification, Incoterms, storage, cargo cover and handover points. Quotes and coverage are confirmed by the relevant carrier, broker or insurer for the actual shipment.
04Payment & banking readinessSettle the transaction lawfully and practically.+
Identify payer, payee, currencies, proposed instrument, banks and documents. We prepare questions and transaction evidence for banks or payment providers; account opening, credit, trade finance and sanctions decisions remain theirs.
05Legal, compliance & counterparty diligenceKnow the parties and the permissible end use.+
Organize public identity, ownership, business activity, sanctions and adverse-information checks in a dated case file. Formal customer due diligence, AML determinations and suspicious-activity obligations belong to the regulated institution or responsible professional, not to a WGTO badge.
06Entity formation & market entryBuild only the structure the trade needs.+
Assess whether local incorporation, registration, permits, beneficial-ownership filings or a distributor arrangement is appropriate. Local legal, corporate-services and tax providers confirm the route and undertake any regulated filing under their own engagement.
07Mobility, visas & workforcePeople pathways follow the actual jurisdiction.+
Map director, employee and visitor needs, including official online visa or work-permit application routes where available. Eligibility, timing and approval vary by nationality and purpose; licensed immigration and employment specialists take responsibility where required.
08Accounting, ERP & Obsidian BKTranslate the deal into accountable records.+
Scope bookkeeping, invoicing, reporting and ERP workflow automation through the Obsidian BK workstream. Agree systems, data access, controls and delivery responsibilities for each engagement. Qualified local providers oversee statutory accounting, payroll, tax filings and audit opinions.
09Existing-chain improvementImprove a route before replacing it.+
Examine an established buying or selling process for specification mismatch, supplier concentration, inventory exposure, freight cost or documentary friction. Compare alternatives without assuming an existing contract can be broken or that a cheaper headline price wins.
10Insurance through qualified providersMatch the cover to the actual exposure.+
Coordinate cargo, liability and business-insurance enquiries with qualified providers. A provider confirms its authority, advice, placement terms and policy coverage for the relevant parties and jurisdictions. Availability and cover are assessed case by case.
Ask first.
Source second.
We do not assume a market move means a company needs a new supplier. A real mandate begins with the buyer’s own confirmation.
- 01 / DiscoverIdentify a dated price, policy, production or trade-flow change and a plausible industrial buyer.
- 02 / AskContact the relevant commercial team; confirm whether a requirement exists.
- 03 / SpecifyRecord grade, quantity, destination, certifications, timing and commercial constraints.
- 04 / CompareSeek comparable written offers from suitable suppliers; calculate delivered economics.
- 05 / AgreeObtain consent and written terms for any introduction, fee and subsequent transaction roles.
Capability requires accountability.
Entity formation, visas, citizenship routes, bank accounts, tax filings, payroll, insurance, investment management and controlled goods are jurisdiction-specific. WGTO can scope and coordinate a case; regulated advice or execution requires a separately engaged, appropriately authorized provider. We do not represent WGTO as a bank, law firm, immigration adviser, licensed investment manager, insurer or exporter of controlled goods.
Start with the commercial problem.
Existing supply chains are welcome. A better supplier, alternate route or clearer transaction structure can matter as much as a new deal.
