Independent verification reports and pre-shipment inspections for businesses sourcing from Asia and Latin America. Factories, not traders. Capacity, not promises. Quality confirmed before goods ship.
International sourcing carries risks that only surface after you've wired the deposit — or after goods arrive off-spec. FMA provides independent supplier verification and pre-shipment quality inspection (PSI) so you're protected at every stage.
Common sourcing risks we verify against

Large inspection firms serve Fortune 500 procurement teams. FMA was built for businesses placing orders between $5,000 and $500,000 — where a bad supplier decision is genuinely consequential.
We cover China where the volume demands it — and go well beyond into Vietnam, Bangladesh, Mexico and other emerging sourcing markets where independent verification is harder to find.
Reports from 48 hours, not 3 weeks. A clear verdict: Proceed, Proceed with Caution, or Do Not Proceed. No corporate jargon. No padded output.
Beyond background checks: our local partners physically verify goods before they leave the factory. Quantity counts, AQL quality sampling, spec compliance, and packaging review — documented with photo and video evidence.
