Buy direct from the producer, without buying the whole shipment
TradeIT pools orders from several companies into one shipment lot: a container, a truck, a rail wagon or a vessel cargo. Each buyer takes exactly the volume they need at producer pricing, and the whole deal runs in one shared deal room.
Minimum order quantities lock you out of the best prices
Buyers
You need 5 pallets or 20 tons. The producer sells by the container, truckload or shipload. So you buy through intermediaries and pay a margin at every link.
Producers
Small orders mean endless negotiations, different terms for every buyer and payment risk. Most aren't worth the effort.
Carriers
Multi-consignee loads are messy: who is the customer, who pays, and for what. Every change turns into a chain of emails.
One shipment. Several buyers. One transparent deal.
TradeIT takes on the work an intermediary used to do: it aggregates demand, aligns terms, arranges transport and reconciles payments. Every party sees its own terms and its own money, not someone else's markup.
From offer to delivered share in six steps
Verify
Participants are onboarded and checked. Import eligibility for the buyer's country is confirmed up front.
List
The producer publishes an offer: specification, price, lot size, closing date and delivery point.
Fill the lot
Buyers reserve the quantity they need, in pallets, tons or units, and watch the filled volume, what's left and the countdown.
Confirm
Once the lot is filled, payments are in and the producer confirms, the order becomes binding. A single buyer can also take the whole lot.
Ship
Carriers bid with an itemized cost breakdown. The freight customer picks the best offer, with one payer per transport order.
Deliver and settle
The cargo arrives and is split, each buyer confirms their share, and a final reconciliation closes the deal.

Everything about a shipment, in one place
Participants, terms, allocation, route, documents, invoices, payments and messages. Every decision has an author, a date and a saved version.
Offer catalog
Search by product, origin, volume, price and delivery terms. Specification, packaging, minimum share, availability and timing on every card. Batch, shelf life, certificates and temperature regime for regulated goods.
Shared lots
Reserve shares in any shipment format and track fill progress, with replacement, cancellation and refund rules published before anyone pays.
Transparent payments
Advances, balances, outstanding amounts and refunds tracked per share. Goods, reservation fee and platform fee are always separate lines.
Logistics tracking
Loading, departure, transit, arrival and handover in one timeline. Temperature logs for reefer cargo.
Documents
Contracts, invoices, packing lists, certificates and transport documents, each with a version, an owner and a review status, linked to buyer shares.
Claims and exceptions
Delays, shortages, damage or document errors logged inside the deal with evidence, an owner and a deadline. Our team follows each case to resolution.
Shared shipment. Private terms.
Confidentiality
Buyers never see each other's commercial terms. Producers see only their own buyers.
Locked terms
Price, specification and terms are saved at the moment of agreement. Material changes need fresh consent from every affected party.
Verified bank details
Every change to payment details is checked before money moves, and every action is logged.
Separate statuses
Delivery can be complete while a claim or payment is still open. Nothing closes by default.
Starting with two trade lanes
Two lanes, two very different shipment formats: frozen meat in reefer containers and trucks, and pig iron in bulk vessel lots. The goal: real shipments in which every buyer receives their goods, and every document and payment is reconciled to the last line.
Questions buyers ask first
What if the lot doesn't fill in time?
Pre-published rules apply: the deadline is extended, a participant is replaced, or payments are refunded in full. You see these rules before you pay anything.
Can I buy the whole shipment myself?
Yes. Buying a full container, truck or vessel lot works the same way as buying a share.
Who handles customs and import?
Each deal names the contracting buyer, the importer of record, the freight customer and the payers. Every role's responsibilities are visible in the deal room.
What if goods arrive short or damaged?
Open a claim in the deal room and attach evidence. Our team follows it through to resolution.
What does it cost?
Pricing for the pilot is under construction. Whatever the model, the platform fee will always be shown as a separate line before you confirm, with no hidden markups.
