How we work

We take commercial responsibility for the full chain — from supplier qualification to delivery at your gate.

Sourcing & Supplier Qualification

We identify and vet manufacturers, verify specifications and certificates of analysis, and manage sample rounds before any commitment.

Export & Customs Documentation

Full ATLAS/EX1 export declarations, certificates of health and origin, and complete documentary sets prepared in-house.

Freight & Delivery Terms

EXW through CPT and DAP. Road, sea and multimodal routing arranged with specialist forwarders, including hazardous-goods cargo.

Regulatory Compliance

Export-control screening and licensing handled before shipment. All trade conducted under applicable EU regulation and German export law.

03 / Why SME

Why SME

A single, accountable counterparty for your ingredient supply chain.

Direct manufacturer access

We buy at source, not through layered intermediaries.

Documentation done right

Complete, compliant paperwork on every shipment, so documents never hold up your goods.

Flexible volumes

From a single pallet to full-truck and full-container loads.

One counterparty

A single contract, a single invoice, a single point of contact from enquiry to delivery.

04 / About

SME GmbH is an independent trading company headquartered in Düsseldorf, Germany. We connect food manufacturers with the ingredients they need, operating as principal rather than agent — we purchase, hold title and sell, so our customers deal with one contract and one invoice.

Our team combines commercial trading experience with hands-on export documentation and logistics expertise, and works in several languages.
