Services

International trade, handled end to end

Take the full flow, or just the leg where your team is stretched thin.

  1. Turnkey import

    We run the entire operation: purchase order at origin, Incoterm, freight, customs clearance and delivery to your plant. You approve a quote and receive the material; everything in between is ours.

  2. Sourcing and supplier qualification

    We identify mills, foundries, refineries and petrochemical plants able to meet your specification and your volume. Capacity, certificates and traceability are verified before any order is placed.

  3. Export and market placement

    We structure the outbound side: tariff classification, destination-country requirements, origin documentation and freight through to the end buyer.

  4. Regulatory and customs advisory

    Tariff classification, applicable regime, permits, valuation and correct use of trade agreements in force. We review before shipment, while fixing things is still free.

  5. Multimodal international logistics

    Ocean, air and inland freight, cargo consolidation, insurance and final-mile trucking. Unloading windows are coordinated with your plant, not with the port.

  6. Landed cost modeling

    We build the full landed cost — material, freight, duty, VAT, port charges, inland haulage — before you commit capital. No line items that surface later.

Commodities

The right input, to the right standard

Production stability depends on raw material consistency. We quote against technical specification, never against a generic description.

Every shipment ships with the producer's mill certificate. Where volume or criticality warrants it, we appoint independent third-party inspection at origin.

  • Steel

    Hot- and cold-rolled coil, galvanized and prepainted sheet, wire rod, rebar, sections and structural tube. Supplied to ASTM, SAE, DIN or JIS, with heat certificates per lot and dimensional tolerances agreed up front.

  • Aluminum

    Coil and sheet in 1xxx, 3xxx, 5xxx and 8xxx series, primary and secondary ingot, extruded profiles and foil. Alloy, temper, gauge and finish are set by your process: packaging, construction, transport or flexible converting.

  • Copper

    Grade A cathode, 8 mm ETP rod, bar, strip and tube. Pricing is built on the LME reference plus origin premium, with the fixing window agreed in writing before shipment.

  • Scrap and ferroalloys

    Ferrous and non-ferrous scrap graded to ISRI specification, ferrosilicon, high- and low-carbon ferromanganese, ferrochrome and silicomanganese. Chemistry, sizing and moisture are checked before the material leaves the origin yard.

  • Polymers

    Prime and technical-grade resins: HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, PP homopolymer and copolymer, suspension PVC and PET. Selection runs on melt flow index, density and additive package to match injection, extrusion, blow molding or thermoforming.

  • Food commodities

    Bulk and industrial-grade food inputs: sugar, vegetable oils, grains, pulses, flours and additives. Every shipment arrives with the sanitary documentation and certificates of origin the import permit requires, plus the producer's lot traceability.

  • Other industrial inputs

    If your buying list includes something not shown here, send the specification. Twenty years of supplier relationships usually cover it.

International trade

Twenty years without losing sight of a single shipment.

Every operation runs through one counterpart who answers for the whole chain, from origin to your plant.

How we work

Five stages, no improvisation

The same procedure for a single container and for an annual supply program.

Requirement and quotation → Origin and supplier audit → Documentation and customs → Freight and tracking → Delivery and final settlement01Requirement and quotation02Origin and supplier audit03Documentation and customs04Freight and tracking05Delivery and final settlement

01

Requirement and quotation

We take your specification: standard, dimension, alloy or grade, volume and frequency. You get a landed cost with a stated validity period, not an FOB price that grows on the way.

02

Origin and supplier audit

We qualify the producer: installed capacity, quality certifications, shipment performance history. Where the material calls for it, goods are inspected before dispatch.

03

Documentation and customs

We classify the goods, confirm permits and apply whichever trade agreement fits. Paperwork is reviewed before sailing, not once the container is already at port.

04

Freight and tracking

We contract ocean freight, cargo insurance and inland transport. You get an ETA and a notice when it moves, without chasing anyone for status.

05

Delivery and final settlement

Unloading at your warehouse, handover of quality certificates and a final reconciliation of actual cost. If anything deviated from the quote, we explain it with documents.

Sectors

Industries we buy for every day

Each sector has its own standard, tolerance and clock. We quote in the technical language of each one.

  • Metalworking and structures

    Sheet, sections and structural tube with tight tolerances and heat certificates for fabrication and erection.

  • Foundries and steelmaking

    Graded scrap and ferroalloys with controlled chemistry for furnace charge and heat adjustment.

  • Packaging and containers

    Can body and end aluminum, tinplate and food-grade resins, consistent lot after lot.

  • Construction and infrastructure

    Reinforcing steel, galvanized sheet and sections for civil works and industrial building.

  • Wire and cable

    Copper and aluminum cathode and rod with certified purity and conductivity.

  • Plastics converting

    Resins selected by melt flow index and additive package for injection, extrusion and blow molding.

Coverage

Logistics that ignores borders

We buy where the material is competitive and deliver where your plant is.

Routing is decided by total cost and transit reliability, not by habit. When an origin stops making sense, we say so.

Trade corridor map: six origin routes — East Asia, South Asia, Türkiye, Europe, North America and Latin America — converging on Valencia, Venezuela.

  • Venezuela

    Customs clearance through Puerto Cabello and La Guaira, with plant delivery nationwide.

  • Latin America

    Import and export operations to and from the region's main markets.

  • Home base

Why Valencut

What changes when your supplier actually knows the trade

We don't compete to be the lowest line on a quote. We compete to be the lowest cost at year end.

  • One party accountable for the whole chain

    No passing blame between the broker, the customs agent and the trucker. If something breaks anywhere in the chain, Valencut answers for it.

  • Compliance before speed

    The expensive mistake in an import is rarely the freight: it's a misclassified tariff heading, a missing permit or a badly issued certificate of origin. Those get checked before shipment, not after.

  • Technical judgment, not a catalog

    Twenty years in metals means we can discuss alloy, temper and chemistry with your plant manager, not just price with your buyer.

  • Transparent landed cost

    You see the full cost structure before you approve. Surcharges that appear mid-route are our problem to solve, not an extra line on your invoice.

  • Direct, continuous dealing

    Your account doesn't rotate between account executives every quarter. You always speak with the same people, and those people decide.

FAQ

What buyers ask before the first order

Straight answers. Where it depends on the case, we say so instead of promising a number.

It depends on origin, producer availability and the agreed Incoterm; a shipment out of Asia is nothing like one out of North America. The quote includes an estimated transit window, and we flag any change as soon as it happens, with the reason.

Next step

Send us the specification. We'll send back the landed cost.

Standard, dimension, volume and frequency are enough to start. Anything missing, we work out with your technical team.

A quote commits you to nothing. Comparing one, more often than not, changes next quarter's buying decision.
