b. The buyers only negotiate on board delivery dates. It means that dates described on Purchase Orders (P.O.’s) are the ones that goods must be loaded on a sailing vessel. If the supplier works with ex-work/ex-factory dates, please add 10 or more days in your schedule to finish production and packaging.
