TradeKey powers Marketplaces.Trade as a co-operation with TradeDigitization.com. This helps source Manufacturers and Suppliers at the best possible terms.

Role of Logistics Partners

As many transactions are agreed as Ex Warehouse transactions, with the designated warehouse at the relevant Trade Gateway being where the consignment is delivered to, the designated warehouse can be an integral part of transactions. Onward fulfilment services can be provided.

Marketplaces.Trade features millions of products from manufacturers/suppliers across the world. The Logistics Partners facilitate the delivery to buyers of products purchased via Marketplaces.Trade under Ex Warehouse Contracts. They can also provide onward fulfilment services as required.

Warehouse receipts, issued by a verified and designated warehouse in the TRADE GATEWAYS Network, provide a standardized and universally verifiable proof of ownership, and help facilitate trade.

The ability to use warehouse receipts as collateral for loans is a game-changer for many businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

SMEs often face challenges in securing traditional financing due to a lack of substantial fixed assets or credit history. By leveraging warehouse receipts, these businesses can demonstrate tangible assets to financial institutions, thereby improving their credit worthiness.
This not only facilitates easier access to loans but also allows for better terms.
