About Passmark

Built in Accra, for the exporter

Every major compliance platform is built for the EU importer. Passmark is built for the person on the other side of the trade — the exporter in Accra, Kumasi or Tamale.

The problem

The missing link in the compliance chain

When the EU passed the Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), it put the burden of proof on importers — who promptly pushed it upstream to their suppliers. Sub-Saharan Africa risks losing an estimated US$11 billion a year to non-compliance.

Yet every tool built to handle this — osapiens, Prewave, Sedex — is designed for the European buyer. The West African exporter, who must actually produce the compliance data those buyers demand, has had no affordable, locally-relevant tool. That’s the gap Passmark fills.

What we do

Compliance intelligence + a trust benchmark

Passmark turns months of regulatory research into minutes: check what any market requires, store and auto-read your certificates, and get a single Passmark Score that buyers can check. It’s two things at once — a working tool for the exporter, and a trust signal for the buyer.

We cover cocoa, cashew, shea, timber, rubber, honey and fresh produce, across the EU, UK, US, India, Vietnam, the AfCFTA region, Switzerland, Canada and Türkiye — the markets Ghana’s exporters actually sell to.

How we work

Honest by design

A trust product cannot overclaim. Our regulatory data is researched and clearly marked where it’s still draft; our "verified" badge requires a real human review, not a checkbox. We’d rather be useful and honest than impressive and wrong.
