Buying sugar internationally should be simple and safe. Our transparent 8-step process protects you at every stage — including independent third-party SGS inspection before any payment is released. Here's exactly how working with Globoto Brasil works, from your first inquiry to delivery at your port.

⏱️ Within 24 hours of inquirySample Verification
Verify qualityBefore committing to a large order, you can request a physical sample to verify quality, color, and crystal characteristics in your own lab or facility. We provide samples in 50 kg bags or 1 MT big bags along with a Certificate of Analysis. This step lets you confirm our quality firsthand — a hallmark of a legitimate supplier.
⏱️ Optional · 5–10 daysContract & Proforma Invoice
FormalizeOnce terms are agreed, we issue a formal Sales Contract and Proforma Invoice (PI) detailing product specifications, quantity, price, incoterms, payment terms, delivery schedule, inspection terms, and all applicable clauses. Both parties review and sign. This legally binding document protects both buyer and seller.
⏱️ 1–2 business daysPayment Terms Setup
SecureWe work with secure, internationally recognized payment instruments — primarily an irrevocable Letter of Credit (LC) at sight, or bank wire transfer (TT) with agreed milestones. With an LC, your bank only releases funds once shipping documents and inspection certificates are presented — protecting your money throughout the transaction.
⏱️ Per agreed termsIndependent SGS Inspection
⭐ Your protectionThis is the step that protects you most. Before goods ship and before payment is released, an independent third-party inspector — SGS, Intertek, or a buyer-nominated agency — inspects the cargo at the port of loading. They verify quantity, quality, ICUMSA color, moisture, and packaging against the contract, then issue an official inspection certificate. You are never asked to pay for goods that haven't been independently verified.
⏱️ Before loading · Certificate issued to buyerShipping & Documentation
In transitCargo is loaded at Santos, Paranaguá, or another major Brazilian port and shipped to your destination. We handle the complete export documentation package — Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin, Phytosanitary Certificate, Health Certificate, COA, and SGS report — and provide real-time shipment tracking so you always know where your order is.
⏱️ 14–21 days from order to loadingDelivery & Customs Clearance
CompleteYour shipment arrives at the destination port with all documents in order for smooth customs clearance. Depending on your incoterms (CIF, CFR, DAP, etc.), we coordinate delivery to the agreed point. Our team stays available throughout to assist with any clearance or logistics questions until your sugar is safely in your hands.
⏱️ Per shipping route & incotermsYour Money Is Protected at Every Step
We understand that buying from an overseas supplier requires trust. That's why our process is built around independent verification: a neutral third-party inspector confirms your cargo meets the contract before payment is released, and secure banking instruments like Letters of Credit ensure funds only move when documents are in order. You never pay blindly — every step is documented and verifiable.
Secure, Flexible Payment Methods
We use internationally recognized, bank-backed payment instruments that protect both parties throughout the transaction.
Letter of Credit (LC)
Irrevocable LC at sight is our preferred method for new buyers. Your bank only releases payment once shipping and inspection documents are presented and verified — giving you maximum security and peace of mind.
Bank Wire (TT)
Telegraphic transfer with agreed milestone structure (e.g. deposit on contract, balance against documents). Suited to established relationships and repeat buyers who prefer streamlined processing.
Escrow & Other Terms
For qualifying transactions we can accommodate escrow arrangements and other mutually agreed structures. Talk to our team about the payment approach that gives you the most confidence.
