Process

How the supplier trade works.

Enquiry

Submit an enquiry with material type, approximate tonnage and country of origin. A Bergent trader will review the lot details.

Sampling & grading agreement

We agree ISRI grade and quality parameters. For large lots, an independent third-party inspector may be nominated at origin for pre-shipment sampling and assay.

Contract & payment terms

We issue a purchase contract setting out the agreed price, Incoterm, payment terms and documentary requirements for the trade.

Loading & inspection

Material is loaded at origin. Where contracted, an independent inspector supervises loading and issues weighbridge tickets and inspection certificates at the loading port.

Payment on documents

Payment is released on presentation of original Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin, and inspection/assay report to the agreed bank.

Documentation

Inspection, assay, radiometric clearance — where the contract requires it.

An independent surveyor — for example SGS or Bureau Veritas — may be nominated at the loading port. Inspection cost is shared per the agreed Incoterm. A radiometric scan is standard on ferrous cargoes.
