Q: Can I get a consolidated CIF price to my port instead of FOB terms?
A: Yes. We provide transparent quotes under CIF or CFR Incoterms, breaking down the product cost and consolidated ocean freight to your port (Valparaíso, Manzanillo, Santos, Buenos Aires, El Callao, etc.).
Q: How are breakages or damage during ocean transport handled?
A: We include a contractual compensation or replacement clause for any transit damage exceeding agreed-upon thresholds, backed by export-grade packaging.
Q: Is it possible to conduct third-party quality inspections prior to shipment?
A: Absolutely. We welcome on-site inspections or audits by independent firms such as SGS, Bureau Veritas, or Cotecna before authorizing the container's dispatch.
