1. I want to buy some fresh beets.

I want to buy some fresh beets. requests 400,000 metric tons within a year with the first shipment of 100,000 MT, a program-sized bulk requirement for sugar extraction. This request names CIF delivery to Basra Port, Iraq and requires an Irrevocable confirmed Letter of Credit at sight from any bank in UAE, Dubai, which means your quotation should specify CIF freight, insurance and port-of-arrival costs plus bank-compliant documentary terms. This request names a clear large annual program and ships to Basra Port under CIF; expect the buyer to evaluate production capacity, storage logistics for bulk sugar-beet handling, and bankable documentary compliance when shortlisting suppliers.

2. fruits and vegetables

fruits and vegetables asks for 20 Tons CIF to jabal ali with payment by T/T. The buyer’s brief description requests "high quality products" but lists no grade or certificates; suppliers should present CIF unit pricing, lead time, and sample availability in their first message. This request names CIF and T/T, so include freight/insurance details and a clear lead time in your quotation.

3. Fresh Fruits, Vegetables, Spices, Herbs, Nuts, Pulses, Coffee Beans, Tea Leaves, Dry Fruits, and Other Food Commodities

Fresh Fruits, Vegetables, Spices, Herbs, Nuts, Pulses, Coffee Beans, Tea Leaves, Dry Fruits, and Other Food Commodities requests 25 containers per week per product during the season under CIF with payment terms staged against BL/AWB. This is a recurring, seasonally scaled procurement asking suppliers to supply company profiles, origins and best CIF prices; treat it as a long‑term contract opportunity and submit seasonal availability and packing plans rather than single‑shipment pricing only.

4. All types vegetable and fruts

All types vegetable and fruts asks for 25 20-foot containers CIF to Jebel Ali with a target price of USD 700 and a 7–10 day lead time. Attributes list Organic: Yes and Packaging Size: Up to 2 kg, so this is an organic, consumer-pack ready container shipment. The buyer prefers suppliers from India but lists origin as "Worldwide"; your quotation should match the packaging and organic certification stated. This request names packaging and organics and ships to Jebel Ali under CIF.

5. Sweet potatoes Grade 1 Origin Egypt Packaging 6 kg box Features Fresh Produce, Vegetables

Sweet potatoes Grade 1 Origin Egypt Packaging 6 kg box Features Fresh Produce, Vegetables specifies Grade 1 sweet potatoes in 6 kg boxes, asking for 1000 40-foot HQ containers and shipping CFR to Jebel Ali. This request names grade and origin (Egypt), so suppliers must verify export packing and grade standards; the trade term CFR shifts some logistical responsibility compared with CIF. This request names Grade 1 and ships to Jebel Ali under CFR.

6. Fresh Carrot

Fresh Carrot asks for 24 Tons CIF to Jebel ali with packing at 4 kg per carton and a target price of USD 125 per metric ton. The buyer explicitly requests phytosanitary and certificate-of-origin documents in addition to CIF insurance coverage, so include these documents and container load calculations in your quotation. This request names packaging requirements and CIF delivery to Jebel ali.

Which Fresh Vegetables Grades and Specifications Buyers Named

All six RFQs contain at least one explicit product name or grade. Below are the distinct grade/product values named and how many RFQs include them.

Counts overlap because some requests name multiple categories (for example the multi-commodity listing that includes fruits and vegetables). "Vegetables" is the most-named value: it appears in 4 of 6 requests, roughly 4 times as often as the next most-named single grade.

If a supplier’s own listing does not show the named grade or packaging (for example Grade 1 or 6 kg boxing), the supplier should either add that specification to their product listing or explain equivalent packing/grade in their quotation; buyers compare exact-match specs first.

Technical specs explicitly stated in RFQs:

• All types vegetable and fruts: Packaging Size up to 2 kg; Organic: Yes; Lead time 7 to 10 days.
• Sweet potatoes Grade 1 Origin Egypt Packaging 6 kg box Features Fresh Produce, Vegetables: Grade 1; Packaging: 6 Kg Box; Origin: Egypt.
• Fresh Carrot: Packing 4 kg per carton; Required documentation: Phytosanitary Certificate, Certificate Of Origin, Packing List, Commercial Invoice.
• I want to buy some fresh beets.: program quantity (100,000 MT first shipment) and documentary payment requirement (LC at sight).

Only some requests carry this level of technical detail; where present, match the buyer's stated figures exactly in your quotation because buyers use them to filter acceptable offers.

Order Size, Trade Terms & Payment Terms

Order size. Six of the six RFQs include a stated quantity. Smallest-to-largest as given: 20 Tons (fruits and vegetables), 24 Tons (Fresh Carrot), 25 containers per week per product (multi-commodity seasonal), 25 20-foot Container (All types vegetable and fruts), 1000 40-foot HQ Container (Sweet potatoes Grade 1), 400000 metric tons (I want to buy some fresh beets.). Grouping: trial/small lot (20–24 Tons), container-scale (25 containers / 25 20-foot units / 40ft HQ quantities), program/industrial (1000 40ft HQ containers, 400,000 MT). Responding to each requires corresponding packing, export capacity and lead‑time capabilities.

Trade terms. Six RFQs name a trade term. Breakdown: CIF = 5, CFR = 1. The majority CIF share implies quotations should include freight and insurance to the named port and specify the named delivery point; quoting on a different Incoterm will not be directly comparable to the offers the buyer expects to receive.

Payment terms. Six RFQs name a payment term. Breakdown: irrevocable L/C at sight (1), T/T (2 variants: T/T and staged T/T) (2), staged against BL/AWB (1), Other (3 listings labelled "Other" include negotiated or deposit-style terms). Zero RFQs left payment completely blank. If a buyer leaves flexibility, propose a bankable starting term such as L/C at sight or a deposit plus balance against shipping documents.

→ Action: add CIF and at least one bankable payment term (L/C at sight) to your listing so term-filtering buyers can find offers that match these most-requested commercial conditions.

FAQ

1. How can I see full buyer contact details?

   Answer: Full buyer contact and bank/payment details are gated on the RFQ platform; suppliers must unlock buyer details on Freshdi to see contact information and submit a formal quotation. Unlocking also reveals any additional buyer validation documents the buyer provided.

2. What does it mean when an RFQ is marked from a verified buyer?

   Answer: A verified-buyer badge (is_verified_buyer) means Freshdi has validated the buyer’s phone or documents per its platform checks; in this set all six buyers show that badge. Verified status does not guarantee payment performance but does indicate the buyer completed Freshdi’s verification steps.

3. How current are these RFQs and can quantities change?

   Answer: These listings are live as of August 21, 2026. Posted dates appear in the table; buyers can update quantities or close requests, so quantities and status can shift over time—treat posted quantities as buyer‑stated intent at the time of posting.

4. Which commercial terms should I include to be shortlisted?

   Answer: Include CIF pricing and either L/C at sight or clearly staged T/T terms where possible; CIF is the majority trade term here (5 of 6 RFQs). Also attach required export documents listed by the buyer (phytosanitary certificate, certificate of origin) to match expectations.

5. How should I present my quotation for mixed or recurring orders?

   Answer: For recurring or seasonal requests (for example the "25 containers per week per product during the season" listing), provide seasonal availability, per-container breakdown, lead time, and company profile. For program or industrial orders (like the 400,000 metric tons beets request) include capacity statements and bankable documentary terms.

6. Can I reply if I don’t exactly match the stated grade or packaging?

   Answer: Yes—explain equivalence clearly and state how you will meet the buyer’s quality and packing requirements; however, exact matches are favoured by buyers filtering responses. To respond directly, unlock buyer details and submit your quotation on Freshdi.
