Questions

Common questions before a first trade.

Is there a minimum order quantity?
It depends on the product. For most specialist lines the practical minimum is one full container. Tell us your volume and we will advise the most economical option.
Can you source a product that isn't on your website?
Yes. The categories and specialist lines on this site are where enquiries usually come from, not a limit. Send the specification and we will tell you what is feasible.
Who arranges freight and insurance?
That depends on the Incoterm we agree. Under CFR and CIF we arrange freight (and insurance under CIF); under FOB and EXW you or your forwarder do.
How do you verify buyers and suppliers?
Every counterparty is checked before a contract is issued, and nothing proceeds on discovery alone. See Why Eximers for how verification works.
Can I follow my order online?
Clients and partners get access to the Eximers portal, where requirements, documents and shipments are tracked in one place.
