What Veridex does not guarantee

Veridex Sourcing does not guarantee buyer interest, supplier acceptance, import approval, final pricing, customs clearance, or successful contracts. We provide research, structured evaluation, and introduction support where appropriate.

Reports are research and intelligence outputs — not commercial guarantees. All commercial relationships, payments, and negotiations happen directly between the buyer and the supplier.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is Veridex a marketplace?
No. Veridex Sourcing is not a marketplace. It provides research, structured evaluation, and sourcing support. We do not list Italian suppliers or charge them to appear in your report.
I am an Italian artisan. Do I need to already export?
No. You can submit your product even if you have never exported. The review will flag all gaps — catalog, pricing, packaging, production capacity, documentation, and regulatory requirements.
Can Veridex guarantee Korean buyers will be interested in my product?
No. Veridex Sourcing does not guarantee buyer interest, commercial results, import approval, or successful contracts. We provide research and structured evaluation — not a commercial guarantee.
What is the difference between the free screening, €49 mini check, and €149 report?
The free screening is a basic first review. The €49 mini check is a structured product-market fit evaluation. The €149 report is deeper research with detailed matching, risk notes, and next-step strategy.
Can Korean buyers request specific Italian categories?
Yes. Korean buyers can request categories such as leather goods, accessories, jewelry, home decor, ceramics, coffee, pasta, olive oil, sauces, and other Made in Italy products.
Are food products easy to import to Korea?
Not always. Food products may require additional checks for labeling, shelf life, ingredients, certifications, and Korean import requirements. We flag these in every food-related report.
Do you already have Korean buyers or Italian suppliers in your network?
No. We do not claim an existing buyer database or curated supplier roster. Each report is researched specifically for the submitted request using AI-assisted search and human review.
I am an Italian artisan. Do I need an English catalog?
You do not need one to submit — but we will flag it as a required improvement. Most Korean concept store buyers require at minimum a bilingual price list and product sheet before engaging.
How fast is delivery?
Standard delivery is within 48 hours of request acceptance. Complex or niche categories may take slightly longer — we communicate upfront if more time is needed.
