Build a strongsupplier profile.
The directory listing is read by members before they authorise a cycle and by channel partners deciding whether to take the goods. It is the most important page a supplier owns on Treviya. We hold it to an editorial standard.
The supplier listing has six required sections and two optional ones. Treviya populates the structure. The supplier provides the content. Our editor reviews every field before the listing goes live and again on each major refresh.
A single sentence that states what the company does, where it operates and how long it has been operating. No marketing language. We rewrite anything that reads like a tagline.
Country and region of production, type of facility, ownership of the production line. Where production is contracted, that is stated. Where the company is producer-direct, that is stated. We define both terms in the field notes article on origin-direct sourcing.
A list of certifications with the issuing body, the certification number and the expiry date. Expired certifications come off the listing on the day they expire. New ones go up the day they issue.
Typical batch size, lead time from order to despatch, peak monthly capacity. Numbers are the supplier’s honest figures. They are reviewed against actual delivery on every cycle.
A minimum of six photographs: the product on a plain background, the product in use or in context, two facility photographs and two team or production-floor photographs. Photographs are colour-corrected and sized to the editorial template.
Generated automatically from settled cycles. Number of cycles run, units shipped, on-time rate, exception rate, average member rating. The supplier does not edit this section. It writes itself.
A short statement from the founder or operations lead, written in the first person, explaining what the company cares about. Two paragraphs maximum. Not required, often the most-read content on the page.
A short photo essay from the production floor, one to four images with captions. Members and channel partners spend more time on listings that include this section.
We do not accept lifestyle stock photography or AI-generated images. The standard is honest, well-lit photography of the actual product and the actual facility. Any image submitted is sample-checked against a reverse-image search before it goes live.
For brands without in-house photography, Treviya maintains a panel of editorial photographers in each origin region who can be commissioned at supplier expense. The panel cost is transparent and the work is delivered with full rights to the supplier.
Specifications: minimum 2400px on the long edge, sRGB colour profile, JPG or PNG, no embedded watermarks, no white-balance shifts. The portal flags submissions that do not meet specification before they reach editorial review.
The most common reason a profile is paused is a certification that has expired without a refresh document being uploaded. The portal sends a renewal reminder 60 days, 30 days and 7 days before expiry. Where the renewal document is not uploaded, the listing is moved to "pending refresh" and is not eligible for new cycle authorisation.
The second most common reason is a capacity number that consistently overstates actual despatch. We track stated capacity against shipped capacity and flag a discrepancy of more than 20 percent over two cycles. The conversation is operational, not punitive. Sometimes the seasonal pattern explains it. Where it does not, the capacity number on the listing is corrected.
The brief is what the curation desk reads to authorise a cycle. The format and the data points required.

The directory listing is the most-shared link a supplier has on Treviya. Build it carefully. Refresh it deliberately.
