Quote logic

What changes the final scope

The final coordination scope depends on supplier count, inspection checklist, shipment mode, volume, container type, loading requirements, and document complexity.

Supplier count

More suppliers mean more readiness dates, document follow-up, inspection decisions, and consolidation risk.

Shipment mode

LCL, 20ft FCL, and 40ft FCL each require different booking and loading coordination.

Document control

Final release depends on payment status and whether the file has the documents needed for the agreed route.

Trust

Responsibility boundaries

Clear scope protects the importer and keeps the operation honest.

FAQ

Importer questions

Short answers for common China-to-Ethiopia coordination questions.

Do you inspect goods before shipping?

Yes, when inspection is selected. We coordinate inspection in China against the customer checklist before the shipment moves to the shipping approval step.

What is included in the shipping coordination fee?

The coordination fee covers operational control: readiness follow-up, shipping-agent coordination, quote and booking follow-up, loading oversight when included, and document control. Freight, duties, taxes, storage, insurance, and third-party fees are separate unless explicitly included.

Do you handle both LCL and FCL?

Yes. We coordinate LCL shipments from 1 CBM and FCL shipments such as 20ft and 40ft containers from China to Ethiopia.

Do you negotiate supplier prices?

No, supplier price negotiation is not the main offer. TradeLinkOps focuses on operational coordination, readiness verification, inspection, shipping coordination, loading oversight, and document control.

What happens if the goods change after inspection?

Supplier changes made after inspection are outside the inspected scope unless the goods are re-inspected. This boundary is important because the inspection only covers what was checked at that time.
