Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general) / value proposition
Spanish term or phrase: nos avalan
Aportación de amplia cartera de clientes que nos avalan tras años de trabajo y una gran relación de confianza comercial con ellos. Solventes y referentes en cada zona o comunidad.

This sentence is in a document which some businessmen are writing to an American company in order to request the distribution of their brand in Spain.

I understand the meaning, just can't think of a good translation!

Thanks!
