Questions, answered.

The things buyers ask us most. If yours is not here, ask on WhatsApp.

Ordering

How do I place an order?

Send your enquiry with the product, size, quantity and destination port, using the enquiry form or WhatsApp. We reply with a quotation that sets out the specification, price, lead time and terms. Once you confirm and pay the advance, we arrange production, check the goods before dispatch and ship from Nhava Sheva.

Read the five ordering steps

What is the minimum order quantity and the lead time?

Both depend on the product, its specification and the manufacturer, so the minimum order quantity and the lead time are confirmed per order. Tell us what you need and we give you both with your quotation.

Do you manufacture the products yourselves?

No. We source packaging materials directly from Indian manufacturers and supply them under our own name.

Are you a registered exporter?

Our registration is in progress. We will publish our IEC, GST and Udyam numbers on the About page and in the footer only once they are issued.

Which countries do you ship to?

We quote for buyers anywhere in the world and do not limit ourselves to one region. Give us your destination port in the enquiry and we quote for it. The route map on our home page shows where we can ship, not where we have shipped.

Payment

What are your payment terms?

We ask for a 30–50% advance by T/T with the order, and the balance against a copy of the Bill of Lading. An irrevocable LC at sight is accepted for larger orders.

Payment terms in full

What about trial or small orders?

Trial and small orders are paid 100% in advance.
