US Customer and Supplier Verification

A polished website and an American phone number don't tell you whether a company is suitable for a transaction. We help South African businesses build a more complete factual picture of a prospective customer, supplier, distributor, or partner before proceeding.

Where a US-based representative can step in

The right checks depend on the decision you face. Confirming that a business exists is different from assessing credit, legal risk, technical capability, or commercial fit. We agree what to check and spell out what the evidence can and cannot establish.

A good fit for

  • An exporter reviewing an unfamiliar US enquiry or first order
  • A company considering a supplier, distributor, or service provider
  • A team that needs address, identity, contact, and public-record checks
  • A business considering an on-site observation where practical

What we can take care of in the US

The assignment can include

  • Review public business registration and identity information where available
  • Check address, website, domain, contact, and operating-presence indicators
  • Contact the business under agreed instructions
  • Compare claims with available public information
  • Coordinate an on-site visit where practical and separately agreed

What you receive

  • Written findings and source notes
  • Confirmed, unconfirmed, and conflicting information clearly separated
  • Contact or site observations where included
  • Limitations and sensible follow-up questions

You know the scope, who decides what, and when you'll hear from us.

  1. 01

    Explain the proposed transaction and the concern to be checked.

  2. 02

    Agree the sources, contact activity, and depth of review.

  3. 03

    Collect and compare available information.

  4. 04

    Report findings without overstating what the evidence proves.

Verification adds one layer of diligence. It is not a guarantee.

A basic check can uncover inconsistencies, confirm a public footprint, and improve the questions you ask. It cannot replace legal diligence, credit reports, product inspection, regulatory review, or a professional investigation where one is needed.
