Prepare the enquiry
Give the team a useful research starting point.
You do not need to know every export answer. Clear product and commercial context is more useful than guessing; mark unknown compliance or market details as such.
- South African company, location, website and primary contact details
- Product description, customer value and supporting catalogue or specification links
- Available production capacity, indicative pricing and current markets
- Preferred buyer types, channels or China regions, if already known
- Export experience, certifications, HS code and packaging or logistics constraints
- Commercial priorities, support required and the timeline you are working towards
Commercial clarity
Support improves the route; it does not guarantee a sale.
Buyer interest, agreement, payment, regulatory approval, customs clearance and shipment outcomes depend on the product and the parties involved. GoSaffa confirms its scope, responsibilities, fees and exclusions before chargeable work begins and coordinates specialist advisers where their authority is required.
