How we work

Independent agency. Clearly defined responsibilities.

LAR & BAR COTTONS operates as an independent sales agency. Our commercial capacity and the party we represent are established for each transaction.

The nature of our business

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, we do not take ownership of, purchase, physically sell, ship or warehouse the cotton.

The underlying sale contract is entered into between the respective buyer and seller. Our agency responsibilities, authority and remuneration are governed by the relevant appointment and commission arrangements.

We believe that clearly defined responsibilities create confidence and protect the interests of all parties.

What we do

  • Introduce buyers and sellers.
  • Facilitate raw cotton sourcing and sales.
  • Communicate offers and counteroffers.
  • Facilitate commercial negotiations.
  • Coordinate specifications and documentation.
  • Provide agreed assistance with shipment and transaction coordination.

What we do not do unless agreed in writing

  • Act as the buyer or seller of the cotton.
  • Take ownership of the cotton.
  • Act as shipper, carrier or warehouse operator.
  • Act as a testing laboratory, or certify or guarantee cotton quality.
  • Bind a buyer or seller, accept obligations or give warranties on their behalf.
