The house

Most importers buy at the end of a long supply chain and take the paperwork on trust. We work close to origin and keep our own records, so we can show you where a shipment really came from.

Chain of custody

We record each consignment from the point we source it to the day it lands in Lebanon. Provenance is something we can prove, not just print on a label.
