Russian buyers looking for suppliers — get their enquiries through us
Russian importers ask us to find and verify suppliers in Europe and Asia and to bring in samples before they order. If you are a manufacturer or distributor, get in touch to receive their enquiries.
How Russian buyers find suppliers through us
Finding a reliable supplier is half the success of any import. Russian companies give us a specification, and we shortlist manufacturers and distributors in Europe and Asia, check their legal and business standing and request commercial terms.
Before the deal, we can bring in product samples so the buyer can assess the quality first-hand — which reduces the risk of a costly mistake on a large order.
If you are a manufacturer or distributor open to B2B export, get in touch: tell us what you make, your minimum order and your export terms, and we will pass on matching enquiries from Russian buyers.

What we check about a supplier
| Check | How | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Registration and details | EU registers (VIES), Chinese and Turkish registers; extracts | So the buyer does not pay a shell company |
| Sanctions restrictions | Product codes against EU regulations, counterparty lists | So the goods are not stopped on leaving the EU |
| Export experience | EORI, shipment history, readiness to issue an EX1 | So the supplier does not back out of the export after payment |
| Quality | Samples, factory audit via partners | So the order matches the specification |
| Deal terms | Incoterms, prepayment, guarantees | So risks are allocated in advance |

For suppliers: how to be ready
Keep your VAT number (VIES) and EORI to hand, be ready to state Incoterms and minimum order, and be able to send samples. If you do not issue EX1 declarations yourself, that is fine — we can open the EX1 for you. We only work with goods that are not subject to EU sanctions and screen HS codes and parties before any deal.
Supplier search: FAQ
I am a supplier — how do I receive enquiries from Russian buyers?
Contact us with your product range, minimum order and export terms. When a Russian buyer’s brief matches, we pass on the enquiry and, if the buyer wishes, organise samples and the first delivery.
How much does the search cost for buyers?
A fixed fee per search project; if the goods are then shipped through us, part of the fee is credited against transport. The exact amount is given after the specification.
Which countries do you search in?
The EU (Germany, Italy, Poland, Czechia, the Baltics), Turkey, China, Korea and India — where we have warehouses and partners for on-site checks.
Can a buyer just have an existing supplier checked?
Yes, counterparty verification is available as a separate service: company details, sanctions, export readiness and reputation — in 2–3 working days.
Which products are excluded?
Goods subject to EU (or UK, Swiss or US) sanctions and dual-use items. HS codes and all parties are screened before any enquiry is passed on.
