Frequently asked — West Island

What does commission-only mean?
Commission-only means AJG earns no fee unless a trade transaction is successfully concluded. There are no retainers, no monthly fees, no upfront payments. When a mandated trade deal closes, both the buyer principal and the seller principal each pay a negotiated commission to AJG. If the deal does not close, AJG earns nothing.
Where is AJG based?
AJG operates from two bases: India — Panchkula, Haryana (proximate to Delhi, Punjab, Chandigarh industrial belt); and EU — London, United Kingdom (EU D2 Entrepreneur Visa, full EU market access). The website AllfrontierGlobal.com is hosted on Nestify servers.
How does AJG make money if it charges no upfront fees?
AJG earns commission only on completed trades. The commission rate is negotiated with each principal at mandate acceptance. Typical commission ranges: 1-3% on high-volume commodity trades, 2-5% on manufactured goods, 5-10% on high-value niche or speciality goods. Both buyer and seller principals agree to commission terms in writing before AJG begins working the mandate.
How long does a typical mandate take to complete?
Timeframe varies significantly by product and market: commodity agro-food mandates may complete in 4-8 weeks; manufactured goods mandates typically take 8-16 weeks for first shipment; pharmaceutical market entry (requiring regulatory approvals) may take 12-24 months. AJG provides a realistic timeline assessment at mandate acceptance.
Can both a buyer and a seller submit mandates for the same product?
Yes — and this is AJG' most efficient route. When a buyer mandate and a seller mandate match (same product, compatible volumes, compatible quality specs and certifications), AJG can work both simultaneously, accelerating the matching process.
What is an active mandate?
An active mandate is a mandate currently being worked by AJG — where a principal has been accepted, counterparty search is underway, and AJG is actively facilitating the connection. Active mandates are listed (in anonymised form) on active-mandates.php.
