Why independent matters
A report is only useful if everyone involved in the shipment can trust it.
“As a fully independent inspection body, DQSES makes sure the information we deliver is objective and free from outside influence.”
Our aim is simple: give everyone involved in a shipment confidence that what we report is honest, accurate and informative.

One set of facts for everyone
No outside influence
Our only job is to record the condition of the cargo as it arrived. Nobody in the deal decides what goes in the report.
Consistent methods
We work to industry standards and good practice, so results can be compared across shipments and seasons.
Useful to every side
Importers use the report to manage stock, growers to see how their product travelled, and both sides to settle a claim when quality falls short of the agreed specification.
