Why did we create The Trade Hub?
Because finding a reliable answer to a customs question shouldn't take hours of research or cost a fortune in consulting fees.
The reality that pushed us to act
As international trade professionals, we've experienced these frustrations daily. And we know you have too.
Complex and ever-changing regulations
UCC, TARIC, implementing regulations, CJEU case law... The regulatory framework is constantly evolving and remains difficult to access.
Hours wasted searching for information
Between official texts, specialized forums, and informal contacts, finding THE right answer can take days.
Expert advice often out of reach
Specialized firms are excellent but their fees aren't affordable for all companies, especially SMEs.
Professionals isolated with their problems
Everyone reinvents the wheel in their corner, while others have already solved the same problem elsewhere.
Our vision: democratizing customs expertise
We believe that access to customs and trade compliance expertise shouldn't be a privilege. Whether you're an import/export manager in an SME or a compliance officer in a large corporation, you deserve reliable, sourced, and accessible answers.
"Imagine a world where every customs question finds its answer in minutes, validated by experts and enhanced by artificial intelligence. That's the world we're building."
