An annual subscription
Membership runs per year and is charged as one subscription. Your level determines what it includes; the membership agreement sets out the rate.
Project work, quoted in advance
Market entry, searches beyond your level and representation are quoted per engagement, in writing, before any work begins. Nothing is invoiced that was not quoted.
No hidden commissions
We take no undisclosed share of any deal between members, from either side. Whatever we charge is agreed in advance and in writing.
Why there are no prices on this site.
The right level follows from what a company needs, not from a price list. A manufacturer looking for one distributor in the Gulf needs something different from a trading house sourcing in several markets at once, and each deserves a straight answer about which level fits.
Rates are therefore discussed with you directly, once we know what you trade and where, and set out in the membership agreement before anything is due. Project work is quoted separately, in writing. Nothing is charged that has not first been agreed on paper.
