If a supplier only accepts methods you cannot reverse and refuses card or escrow, that is the number one scam signal. Walk away or use escrow.
The bank account name must match the registered company name. If it does not, stop.
For a first order, use an independent escrow service so the supplier is paid only after you receive the goods.
About
Semillas Fito S.A. is a Spanish private family seed company founded in 1880 in Barcelona, making it one of the oldest seed companies in Southern Europe. The company develops and markets hybrid and open-pollinated vegetable seed varieties, with particular focus on tomato, pepper, watermelon, melon, squash, cucumber, lettuce, leek and bean. Breeding stations are located in Barcelona and in production test sites across Spain, Portugal, Morocco and Mexico. Fito supplies professional vegetable seed to distributors, cooperatives, transplant nurseries and direct grower accounts across the Mediterranean basin, North Africa and Latin America. The company has particular market depth in Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Algeria and Turkey, where Mediterranean growing systems and consumer preferences for specific fruit types align with Fito's breeding output. Spanish-speaking export capabilities and long relationships in Latin American markets (Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Peru) complement the European and North African base. Fito maintains an independent family ownership structure that allows long-term investment in multi-year variety breeding cycles.
