Sound familiar?
The daily reality of running a trading companies business
You're managing 50+ email threads with suppliers in China, India, and Europe — across different time zones and languages.
Purchase order follow-ups are manual. Shipments get delayed because nobody chased the supplier for the BL on time.
Payment reminders to buyers are sent late or not at all. Aging receivables keep growing.
Your team spends 3+ hours daily just sorting and responding to routine supplier/buyer emails.
Price quotes expire before you follow up. Competitors with faster response times win the business.
Shipping documents (BL, packing list, COO) require constant coordination between multiple parties.

Real-world scenario
How a FMCG trading company eliminated shipment delays
The situation
A Dubai-based FMCG trader managing 30+ active suppliers across China, India, and Turkey was constantly dealing with delayed shipments. The 3-person operations team spent most of their day chasing suppliers for PO confirmations and shipping documents. With a 6-hour time zone difference with China, morning emails often went unanswered until the next day. Payment follow-ups with regional buyers were inconsistent, with receivables averaging 45 days overdue.
After Claws deployment
After deploying an AI employee, supplier communications now happen in real-time across all time zones. PO follow-ups are automated at each milestone. Shipping document requests go out the moment a vessel is booked. Payment reminders are sent systematically. The company reduced shipment delays by 65%, cut receivables aging to 18 days, and freed up 20+ hours per week for the operations team to focus on new supplier negotiations and market expansion.
