Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a purchase order and a contract?

A purchase order is a specific offer to buy goods under stated terms. Once the supplier accepts it (e.g., by acknowledgment or shipment), it becomes a binding contract. A broader contract may cover multiple POs and ongoing terms.

How do I specify yarn quality on a PO?

Include the fiber content (e.g., 100% cotton), yarn count (Ne or tex), twist direction, and any required certifications (e.g., organic). Reference an industry standard like ASTM D2255 for evenness.

What Incoterms should I use for domestic shipments?

For domestic U.S. shipments, FOB Origin or FOB Destination are common. FOB Origin means the buyer takes ownership once the goods leave the supplier's dock; FOB Destination means the supplier retains risk until delivery. Choose based on who pays freight and when risk transfers.
