• Direct Factory Sales: Manufacturers selling directly through the platform.
•  
• Inventory Location: The inventory must be located within the EU or at major seaports.
•  
• Documentation: Factories must provide comprehensive documentation for verification.

     Case 2 – Top Tier Distributors:

• Industry Experience: Companies must be established mainstream distributors with over 5 years of experience in the industry.
•  
• Brand Recognition: They must be listed on the official websites of at least two Bloomberg tier-1 module manufacturers (such as: Jinko / JA / Trina / Suntech / Longi / Aiko / TW Solar etc) and one tier-1 inverter manufacturer (such as SMA / Fronius / SolarEdge / Enphase / Huawei / Solis / Sungrow etc).
•  
• Infrastructure: A self-owned warehouse and inventory are required.
•  
• Exhibition Participation: These companies should have participated in major trade shows consistently over the past three years, such as RE+, InterSolar, SolarSolution, and others.

The GSS platform enables buyers to make payments directly to Trusted Sellers. However, it is the buyer's responsibility to ensure the accuracy of the seller's banking information before initiating a transaction.

2. Standard Sellers
