Coffee Export Planning
Five milestones. A schedule agreed for your order.
A shipment window depends on lot readiness, sample approval, payment, documentation and carrier availability. The quotation should identify both the target dates and what each date depends on.
01
Lot matching
Confirm available coffee, grade, volume and destination requirements before quoting.
02
Sample dispatch
Confirm a representative sample, shipping charges and courier window once the lot is identified.
03
Buyer approval
Allow for sample delivery, test roasting, cupping and written acceptance of specifications.
04
Contract & preparation
Confirm payment conditions, milling or packing needs, testing and export records.
05
Shipment booking
Agree the shipment window against readiness, documents and confirmed carrier capacity.
Commercial Clarity
Agree the terms before the coffee moves.
Payment methods below are options for discussion, not automatically accepted terms. The signed contract sets the arrangement for the buyer, order and banking requirements.
