1. Requirement Definition

Buyers provide a high-level overview of their sourcing needs, including product type, target volumes, delivery considerations, and general commercial expectations.

This information is used solely to assess feasibility and alignment. Apex does not require sensitive financial data or contractual commitments at this stage.

2. Supplier Alignment Review

Based on buyer requirements, Apex reviews available supplier capabilities within its network and, where appropriate, identifies potential matches aligned with volume and capability expectations.

Apex does not guarantee availability, pricing, or supplier participation.

3. Initial Outreach and Confirmation

Potential suppliers may be contacted to confirm capability and interest relative to the buyer’s stated requirements. This step is exploratory and non-binding.

Only suppliers demonstrating preliminary alignment are considered for introduction.

4. Facilitated Introduction

Where mutual alignment exists, Apex facilitates an initial introduction between buyer and supplier.

At this point, Apex’s role concludes. All negotiations, due diligence, compliance checks, pricing discussions, and contractual arrangements are conducted directly between the buyer and supplier.

5. Independent Transaction Execution

Buyers and suppliers proceed independently at their discretion. Apex does not participate in negotiations, contract execution, logistics, payment handling, or transaction settlement.

Important Clarifications

Apex Trade Facilitation does not act as a broker, agent, or representative.

No guarantees are made regarding transaction outcomes.

Buyer participation is non-exclusive and opportunity-based.

All commercial risk remains with the buyer and supplier.
