Questions
Asked before a first order.
Is there a minimum order?
Tell us the quantities you need. If an item has a minimum order quantity, your quotation states it.
How long does production take?
It depends on the products and quantities, so the lead time is stated for your order in the quotation and on the proforma invoice.
Which payment terms do you accept?
Payment terms are agreed with you and written on the proforma invoice before production starts.
Do you ship by air and by sea?
Yes. Orders are packed for export and shipped by air or sea, under the delivery term on your proforma invoice.
What does FOB Karachi mean?
Free On Board, port of Karachi: we clear export customs in Pakistan and load the goods on board your vessel at Karachi. From then on, sea freight, insurance and the risk are yours.
What is the difference between CIF and CPT?
Under CIF (sea freight) we pay freight and minimum insurance to your port, and the risk passes to you once the goods are on board at Karachi. Under CPT (any transport, often air) we pay the transport to your named place, the risk passes when we hand the goods to the first carrier, and insurance is yours.
Which documents come with the shipment?
The packing list and the documents your forwarder and customs need. Tell us in your request if your import needs others, such as a certificate of origin.
Can the products carry our brand?
Yes. Laser marking, packaging and labels in your name, through our OEM and private-label service.
