FINANCIAL AND LOGISTIC SERVICES

FINANCIAL SERVICE

We pay rigorous attention to the management of our contracts while adapting them to all situations. With the backing of a widespread banking network, we find pertinent and innovative solutions adapted to particular needs.

LOGISTIC SERVICE

Our experienced team, being in contact with all parties involved in the logistic chain, can better follow through the conveyance of the cotton throughout the world.

With our efficient and continuously updated computer system, our services provide a comprehensive follow-up of contracts and ensure their successful completion.

OUR KNOW-HOW: QUALITY CONTROL

Generations of experience in the cotton trade has made DEVCOT one of the few real experts in this field. In order to guarantee quality, our trading and quality control departments travel to production and storage locations.

Samples corresponding to the quality of each delivery are received in our classification unit on a daily basis.

The samples are checked visually and, after being reconditioned, are tested mechanically using an HVI chain (High Volume Instrument).

This double selection procedure ensures the quality of our supplies.
