Our Incoterms

United Brokerage South Africa supplies locally and exports worldwide. Our coal is delivered based on the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) standard trade definitions FOB, FOT or CFR.

Free On Board – FOB

This defines the point in the supply chain where ownership transfers from the seller to the buyer.

 

According to the ICC, FOB requires the seller to load goods on board a cargo ship of the buyer's choice. The seller must clear the goods for export. The cost and risk then become the buyer's responsibility while they are on board.

Cost and Freight – CFR

This term requires the seller to arrange sea cargo carriage of the goods in foreign trade contracts. CFR only applies to goods transported by water. The seller must give the buyer the necessary documents to collect the goods at the destination port.

A trading contract containing CFR terms means the buyer is responsible for insuring the load.

We Create Solutions Supporting International Trade

United Brokerage South Africa identified a need for reliable and honest coal supply to industries dependent on the commodity. We believe in creating an environment that facilitates and simplifies effective world trade.

 

Our transparent and hands-on approach to the thermal coal supply chain will optimise your cement and steel manufacture, electrical power generation or agricultural operations.
