Consolidation FAQ
Can I combine several suppliers?
Where operationally appropriate, goods from multiple suppliers can be coordinated into one China-to-India flow. Cost reduction is not guaranteed.
Is consolidation always cheaper?
Not always. Consolidation is assessed against supplier locations, ready dates and commodity requirements.
Do you always repack?
Repacking, labeling and related activities may be available where operationally supported — not promised on every shipment.
