A compliance document for every shipment
Tied to the exact farms your order comes from, and created the moment it ships. Download it whenever you need it — ready to file with the EU system.
For buyers, importers, and trading desks
See your African suppliers' compliance before you sign anything.
For every shipment, you get the official EU compliance document, a clear read on how ready each supplier is, and all the certificates behind it — with expiry dates in plain view. It's the same proof your suppliers build on their side, so what you receive always matches what's on file.
What you receive
Three things. One clear record.
How ready each supplier is
Every supplier's profile shows where they stand on each rule: what applies to them, what they've already met, what's on file, and what's about to expire. You see it before you sign, not after something goes wrong.
Every document, with expiry dates in view
Every certificate and lab result behind the compliance document lives right here, with its expiry date and a secure link. You can trace the whole thing from start to finish — no chasing attachments over email.
Why this matters now
The responsibility now sits with you, the importer.
EUDR — already in force
If you bring covered goods into the EU, you must file a compliance document for each shipment, pinned to the exact land it came from. The legal responsibility is yours — the EU-side buyer's — not the producer's.
CSDDD — starts 2027
This EU rule will require large buyers to find, prevent, and fix human-rights and environmental harms across their supply chain — including the suppliers they buy from.
UK Modern Slavery Act, France Devoir de Vigilance, Norway Transparency Act
These national laws require certain importers to check their supply chains and report on them. Each one puts the burden of proof on the buyer, not the supplier — so you carry the audit risk.
Dodd-Frank §1502 — US mineral importers
US-listed importers of tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold must show where the minerals came from and that they weren't linked to conflict. We capture that proof from the mine site through to the smelter.
Why you can trust it
What you receive is exactly what the system produced — nothing edited in between.
The rules aren't open to interpretation
Each rule is recorded once, with its source, where it applies, and its start and end dates. Suppliers don't get to choose which checklist they follow — the system decides, based on the goods, where they're from, and where they're headed.
Farm locations are checked, not just claimed
Larger farms must have their boundaries drawn on a map, not just a single pin. Each one is checked against official EU forest maps for signs of deforestation before the compliance document is created.
Expired certificates can't slip through
Certifications like Rainforest Alliance, Fairtrade, GLOBALG.A.P., and organic all have expiry dates. When one lapses, it doesn't quietly disappear — the supplier's status visibly drops, so you notice right away.
The same proof on both sides
The document you download is built from the very same checks your supplier runs. There's no separate 'buyer version' — it simply reflects the documents on file at the moment the goods ship.
Rules we cover
Every rule your suppliers can prove, grouped in four simple tiers.
These are the rules your suppliers can prove they meet, right here on the platform. We keep the list up to date — when a new rule appears, it automatically reaches the suppliers and shipments it affects.
