The house
A trader is judged on what they turn down.
LJ9 Negoce is an independent trading house. We buy firm, we inspect ourselves, and we carry liability on the goods we sell.
That position has a cost: we decline business we cannot control at origin. It is also the only reason our clients entrust us with volume without having to travel.
- Firm purchase
- We take a position on the goods, not merely a commission.
- Our own inspection
- Our teams or our appointed inspectors — never the seller's word.
- One point of contact
- From contract to port of destination, the same account manager.
Let's talk about your next sourcing operation.
