When a factory advises a price quote for production of your garment or item, the price may or may not include shipping. When an overseas factory provides a price, they will add an abbreviation to the end of the price. These abbreviations include: FAS, FOB, CIF, LDP, and DDP. You must understand the meaning of these, so you can understand what is included in the price and what portions the factory is responsible for.<\/p>

Pricing terms are defined as follows:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
