... NOTIFICATION OF TRADING EXPORT SHIPPING AGREEMENT

The following terms of trading must be agreed and understood before processing orders for overseas customers.

Payment

To be made in sterling only, no other currencies are acceptable, unless authorised. Payment to be made by either sterling bankers draft or cheque drawn on a London Bank only.

Credit Period

This is defined by the invoice date, the period of credit is then calculated from this date (example: invoice dated 1st January, on 90 days credit, payment due 1st April). Credit period does not start from the receipt of goods at final destination.

Delivery and Shipment

We will process an agreed order and supply to a UK shipper of customer's choice (preferred shipper).

Once the goods have been signed for by the shipping agency as received, it is then the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the shipper acts upon instructions to deliver the consignment to your required destination.

It is the customer's responsibility to instruct the shippers, NOT OURS. Our contract is complete once the goods have been signed for by your preferred shipper. We cannot accept responsibility for goods left at shippers without notification that they are there, for goods being shipped to the wrong destination or goods lost in transit.

The movement of goods is between the customer and preferred shipper, and cannot be used as a means of non-payment.
