Where your goods leave India.

Buying from India usually means dealing with several factories, a freight forwarder, a customs broker and a stack of documents, often in different time zones. VDG brings those pieces together: we source the goods, check them, prepare the export paperwork under our own IEC and ship them to your port.

Tell us what you want to import, the quantity and your destination port. You get one quotation, one contact and one set of documents, for goods from any of our categories.
