FROVI buyer guide
From List to First Shipment
Bring product, pack, destination and document details together in one shipment plan.
Gather shipment details
Start with what is moving, where it is going and how much you expect to ship.
- Product, pack and temperature family
- Destination, port and delivery point
- Estimated volume and buyer channel
Separate temperature needs
Frozen and ambient products need different handling. Ask logistics to review any combined plan.
- Temperature requirement by product
- Monitoring at each handoff
- Loading sequence and equipment questions
Count cases and pallets
Use actual pack weights to translate order quantity into cases and pallets.
- Net weight per unit and case
- Units per case and cases per pallet
- Example: 20,000 kg ÷ 10 kg per case = 2,000 cases
Check the handoff
Bring the agreed trade basis, documents and contacts into the same plan.
- Trade term and delivery point
- Buyer and destination document requests
- Who confirms loading details
