FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) July 1, 2006 -- Responding to both customer and supplier suggestions, Captain Granite has created a process to facilitate the international trade of natural stone materials.

The process addresses risk concerns that have long prevented the direct purchase of granite and marble. Buyers have been concerned about sending funds across borders to suppliers that they hardly know. Suppliers have been concerned about extending credit to smaller companies. Trade instruments, such as, Letters of Credit or Payment on Documentation, generally transfer risk from one party to another. The Containers Direct process removes this risk by providing an independent verification of funds and quality of delivered materials.

Additionally, the complexity of the purchase has made it difficult for buyers to understand the true costs of their purchases. The Containers Direct process provides buyers costs delivered to their location including transportation and customs costs. Buyers can quickly determine impacts of changing product mixes.

Finally, Captain Granite, LLC can assist qualifying buyers by providing financial assistance in the purchase of materials.

Jonathan Folland, Founder/CEO of Captain Granite, LLC has more than a decade of experience in finance and technology. Additionally, Folland has spent more than two years researching the purchasing process of natural stone materials. Folland states that, “the timing and the market for Containers Direct couldn’t be better. Today, more and more fabricators are considering direct purchase of their materials. Yet, these same fabricators face real concerns regarding the quality of materials delivered. Since we have developed the Containers Direct process, we can sell at delivered costs often less than the costs customers could achieve on their own; all this without much of the risk associated with traditional international trade.”

About Captain Granite
