Verified supply, not a directory
Suppliers reach a verification tier by submitting company, licensing and compliance documents that are reviewed before they can trade. Your members or clients are introduced to buyers on that basis.
Partnerships
Partner with the Gloseg group
Gloseg is the trading name of a corporate group headquartered in Accra, Ghana. Gloseg B2B Ltd is the group parent and the contracting entity for the platform. Partnerships are how the chain gets stronger at the stages we do not own outright.
Why organisations partner with Gloseg
What an institution gets access to
Institutions partner with us because the platform already carries the things a cross-border transaction needs before anyone will finance, insure or ship it.
Escrow-controlled order flow
Buyer funds sit under escrow control against order milestones instead of moving supplier-to-buyer on trust, which is what makes a first cross-border transaction possible at all.
A documentation trail
Quotes, orders, invoices, shipment records and verification decisions are held against the transaction, so a bank, insurer or agency can see what happened and when.
An exporter audience already learning
The Export Academy carries guides, HS-code tooling and live training, so programmes delivered with us reach businesses that are already preparing to export.
Partnership tracks
Where your organisation fits
Each track states what the group contributes, what we need from a partner, and the situation it is designed for, so the first conversation can be a commercial one.

What each side brings
The two halves of a working partnership
Across every track, the split is the same. We hold the trade record and the exporter base; the partner holds a capability at a stage of the chain.
Gloseg brings
- Verified supplier organisations with a documented verification tier and audit trail.
- RFQ, quotation and order tooling that captures specification, price and terms in one record.
- Escrow-controlled payment flow with invoice-level documentation per order.
- Export Academy curriculum, trade guides and HS-code tooling for exporter readiness.
- Corridor and category context drawn from live platform activity.
The partner brings
- A capability the trade chain needs at a stage the group does not own outright.
- The mandate and internal approval to run a scoped pilot on real transactions.
- A named counterpart who owns the relationship on your side.
- Compliance standing: licensing, accreditation or regulatory permission where relevant.
- Clarity on the corridor, country or category you want to move.
Partnership operating model
Three shapes a partnership can take
The shape is chosen from the work, not the other way round. Most partnerships start in the lightest form that can prove value.
Commercial partnership
Your service is offered inside the trade flow on agreed commercial terms, with responsibilities and scope written down before launch.
Integration partnership
Systems connect so a Gloseg transaction can trigger your process, or your outcome can be recorded against the order.
Referral or programme partnership
No integration. You route members, clients or cohorts into the platform, or we route exporters into your programme.
Collaboration structures
How partnerships are usually structured
Four structures cover most of what institutions ask us to run.
- Corridor programmes
- A named origin and destination pair worked jointly: supplier readiness, verification, logistics capacity and buyer demand sequenced together.
- Member onboarding cohorts
- A chamber or agency brings a batch of exporter members through onboarding, verification and Academy training as one cohort.
- Trade finance pilots
- A lender tests financing against a bounded set of orders, using the verification tier and order documentation as the underwriting context.
- Certification at verification points
- An inspection or testing body is engaged at the moment a supplier or shipment needs accredited proof, rather than after a dispute.
Trust, compliance & data
What both sides are responsible for
Partnerships touch verified companies, buyer money and regulated goods, so these terms are settled before a pilot starts.
Compliance screening before signature
Sanctions, restricted goods and licensing are checked on both sides before anything is signed, and re-checked when scope changes.
Data shared on purpose only
A partner receives the transaction data the agreed work requires and nothing else. Buyer and supplier account data is not treated as shareable inventory.
The record stays authoritative
Verification decisions and order documentation remain held by the platform, so there is one auditable account of what happened.
Publication only once cleared
Partner names, logos and joint claims are published only after both sides have agreed the wording in writing.
Our full policies are published in the trust and compliance centre.
