2origins
Freshdi Machine Transport suppliers come from 2 countries, led by Brazil at 50.0%, as of 15 November 2026.
Only 2 suppliers are currently offering Machine Transport on the platform, and neither has updated a listing in the last 90 days. This means the market is static—suppliers aren’t refreshing inventory or responding to new buyer needs—which suggests buyers should treat each supplier as a one-time opportunity rather than a long-term sourcing option. There are 8 listings available, which is a small but focused catalog. While it may not cover every machine type or configuration, the limited number of listings means buyers can quickly assess options and identify exact matches without needing to wait for new posts to appear. The two suppliers are split evenly between countries, with Brazil supplying half of the exporters. This limited geographic spread means buyers must choose carefully—Brazil is the only major source, so any decision hinges on logistics, compliance, or regional availability.

Trade terms and how to compare quotations
A reference for every category: what the usual trade and payment terms mean, and the points to check when you compare quotations.
| Term | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EXW | Incoterm | The buyer collects the goods at the seller's premises and pays every cost from there. |
| FCA | Incoterm | The seller hands the goods, cleared for export, to the buyer's carrier at a named place. |
| FOB | Incoterm | The seller loads the goods on the vessel at the port of loading; freight is the buyer's. |
| CFR | Incoterm | The seller pays sea freight to the destination port; the risk passes once loaded. |
| CIF | Incoterm | Like CFR, and the seller also insures the goods until the destination port. |
| CPT | Incoterm | The seller pays carriage to a named place; the risk passes at the first carrier. |
| CIP | Incoterm | Like CPT, and the seller also insures the goods to the named place. |
| DAP | Incoterm | The seller delivers to a named place, ready for unloading; import duties are the buyer's. |
| DPU | Incoterm | The seller delivers and unloads the goods at a named place in the destination country. |
| DDP | Incoterm | The seller delivers to the buyer's place and pays import duties and taxes too. |
| FAS | Incoterm | The seller places the goods alongside the vessel at the port of loading. |
| T/T | Payment term | A bank transfer, often a deposit before production and the balance against documents. |
| L/C | Payment term | A letter of credit, under which the buyer's bank pays once the shipping documents match its terms. |
| D/P | Payment term | Documents against payment, where the buyer gets the shipping documents once it pays. |
| D/A | Payment term | Documents against acceptance, where the buyer gets the documents by accepting to pay later. |
| CAD | Payment term | Cash against documents, where payment is made when the shipping documents are presented. |
| Bank Transfer | Payment term | A direct transfer between bank accounts, agreed in the contract. |
| Escrow | Payment term | A third party holds the payment until the buyer confirms delivery. |
| Cash | Payment term | Payment in cash, usually only for small or local orders. |
Name the Incoterm with a place, and agree it and the payment term in writing before production starts.
| Point | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Incoterm and place | Every quotation names the same Incoterm and port or place. | Prices on FOB and on CIF differ by the freight and the insurance. |
| Specification | The grade, size or composition quoted matches the one asked for. | A lower grade can hide behind a lower price. |
| Quantity and MOQ | The price is for the quantity ordered, above the minimum order. | Unit prices change with the order size. |
| Packaging | Packing type, size and labelling are stated and the same. | Custom packing adds cost. |
| Payment term | The payment term and the deposit asked. | It moves the risk between buyer and seller. |
| Lead time | The production and shipping time to the destination. | A late shipment can cost more than a higher price. |
| Documents | The certificates and export documents included. | Missing papers can block customs. |
| Validity | How long the quoted price holds. | Quotations are often valid for a limited time only. |
Ask every counterpart to quote on the same basis: only then does the lower price win.
