Why freight insurance and risk cover matters on the Nex 2
Cover should start at the factory gate rather than at the port of loading.
A written internal standard for freight insurance and risk cover makes onboarding new account managers far quicker and reduces avoidable errors.

Commercial terms
Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
