Each participant's role matters

I separate the roles of supplier, buyer, carrier, warehouse, bank, customs authority and other parties where their actions are relevant to the dispute.

01

Intermediary chain

If the seller, manufacturer, payer and carrier are different, the commercial reality of the transaction should be documented before a dispute arises.
