Here’s a clear, step-by-step workflow for exporter and perfumer due diligence in the agarwood supply chain, integrating traceability, compliance, and sustainability verification:
Exporter & Perfumer Due-Diligence Workflow
Ensuring Authenticity, Compliance, and Premium Quality
1. Purpose of Due Diligence
- Verify origin, legality, and sustainability of agarwood batches
- Prevent fraud, laundering, or substitution
- Ensure compliance with CITES, CNC/ECC, and international trade laws
- Confirm quality, grade, and ESG/SDG alignment
- Protect brand reputation and secure premium pricing
2. Step-by-Step Workflow
| Step | Action | Tools / Verification |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Pre-Purchase Inquiry | Buyer requests batch info from exporter | AgriTrace dashboard or QR-linked batch data |
| 2. Batch Verification | Confirm tree/batch UTID, seed source, plantation GPS, and inoculation history | QR scan → GreenBlocks™ blockchain record |
| 3. Grade & Quality Check | Verify chip grading, resin classification, or oil distillation results | AgriTrace / quality certificate |
| 4. Sustainability & ESG Verification | Confirm carbon capture, agroforestry practices, and ESG/SDG metrics | GreenLedger™ + GreenBlocks™ → QR-linked certificates |
| 5. Legal Compliance Check | Verify CITES permits, CNC/ECC, and export licenses | Blockchain verification & official documentation |
| 6. Contract & Payment Setup | SmartAgri Contract™ defines revenue sharing, payment terms, and delivery milestones | On-chain contract execution triggers payments automatically |
| 7. Export Documentation | Attach verified batch data and certificates to shipping documents | QR code integration + digital ledger records |
| 8. Post-Purchase Verification | Perfumers or end-buyers can scan QR or access blockchain to verify origin, grade, and sustainability | Mobile dashboard or AgriTrace portal |
3. Key Verification Points
- Traceability: UTID, batch ID, plantation location
- Quality & Grade: Chips, resin, or oil specifications
- Sustainability Metrics: Carbon capture, agroforestry integration, ESG/SDG compliance
- Legal Compliance: CITES permits, CNC/ECC, export license
- Financial & Revenue Rights: Payments and revenue share tracked via SmartAgri Contracts™
4. Benefits for Exporters & Perfumers
- Assured Authenticity: Every batch is traceable from tree to market
- Reduced Risk: Fraud, mislabeling, or substitution is prevented
- Premium Market Access: Verified, sustainable agarwood commands higher prices
- Investor Confidence: Transparent revenue flows and ESG reporting
- Audit-Ready Documentation: Blockchain ensures immutable proof for regulators and buyers
5. Visual Workflow Concept
Exporter Batch Data → QR Code Assignment → Blockchain Record → Buyer Verification → Grade & Sustainability Check → SmartAgri Contract Payment → Export Documentation → End-User Verification
Key Message
“The exporter & perfumer due-diligence workflow ensures every agarwood batch is legally compliant, traceable, sustainably produced, and verified—protecting buyers, exporters, and investors while enabling premium market opportunities.”
I can create a visual infographic showing Exporter → QR → Blockchain → Buyer/Perfumery Verification → SmartAgri Contract → Premium Market, making it training- and investor-ready.
