MOQ Policies: Logistics Report in Jordan
MOQ Policies: Logistics Report in Jordan
Jordan. Buyers working on moq policies in Jordan have had to re-plan the third quarter. The change did not arrive all at once — it showed up first in lead time, then in price, and only afterwards in the paperwork. This report sets out what moved, why it moved, and what it means for anyone placing an order in the next few weeks.
The short version: the specification that worked last season is not automatically the specification that works now. Programmes that kept a written specification and an approved sample adjusted in days; programmes that did not are still arguing about a supplier who changed material without saying so.

Why it happened
- Input cost followed — the base material moved by roughly 27% before anyone adjusted the quotation.
- Freight and clearance added a second, less visible cost that most buyers discovered late.
- Specification changes were approved verbally instead of in writing, and never reached production.
- Inspection requirements tightened after 1.5% of one season's claims traced back to a single lot.
What buyers are doing about it
- Re-confirming the written specification before the next order instead of after it.
- Holding a golden sample at the factory as the reorder reference.
- Booking inspection before the balance payment, not after the container ships.
- Consolidating part numbers so freight per piece stays sensible.
- Asking for the test report with the goods rather than as a separate favour.
Outlook
Most of the enquiries we see from Jordan point the same way for the third quarter: volume stays, but the tolerance for an undocumented change does not. Expect documentation to stay the deciding factor rather than unit price.
Practical notes for this market
- Confirm the model year and market version before ordering — regional variants are the usual cause of a wrong first order.
- State the duty cycle in writing; mining sites is not the same specification as occasional use.
- Sampling takes 10 working days, and each revision adds about 5 days.
- Keep ISO/TS 16949 documentation with the shipment record.
Questions buyers ask
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
Can you match an existing sample?
Send a sample and we will reverse-engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk starts.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ISO/TS 16949 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 10 working days, and each revision round adds about 5 days once you have seen the first piece.
Tell us the model, the fitment and the quantity and we will hold a production slot for you.
