Trust & Security

Trade Verification
At ParsaFood Global, we are committed to building a transparent, secure, and trustworthy international B2B marketplace. Our Trade Verification program is designed to help buyers identify legitimate suppliers while reducing the risks associated with international trade. Although verification improves confidence, buyers and sellers remain responsible for conducting their own commercial due diligence before entering into any transaction.
Our Verification Process
ParsaFood Global may conduct verification procedures on suppliers and business partners before granting them verified status. Verification may include one or more of the following:
- Business registration and legal entity verification.
- Verification of company ownership and authorized representatives.
- Government-issued identification verification.
- Tax registration and VAT verification where applicable.
- Business license validation.
- Company address verification.
- Telephone and email verification.
- Bank account ownership verification.
- Review of export licenses, food certifications, or regulatory approvals where applicable.
- Website and digital presence review.
- Review of previous trading history and available references.
- Verification of manufacturing facilities or warehouse information when available.
The level of verification may vary depending on the supplier's country, industry, available documentation, and the services requested.
Verification Levels
To improve transparency, suppliers may be assigned different verification levels.

Verified Supplier Badge

Final Notice
Trade Verification is designed to enhance confidence and transparency within the ParsaFood Global marketplace. However, it should never replace independent commercial judgment, legal review, financial due diligence, or professional risk assessment. Every buyer and supplier remains fully responsible for their own business decisions, contractual obligations, and international trade activities. ParsaFood Global acts solely as a marketplace operator and/or service provider and does not guarantee the identity, reliability, performance, or legal compliance of any user beyond the limited scope of the verification procedures described above.
