The buyer is looking to source bananas, initially requesting an FOB price per box or container for a trial order of 2-3 containers. They plan to scale up to approximately 15 containers per month if the collaboration is successful. They request details about the banana variety (e.g., Cavendish), grade, packaging specifications (e.g., 20kg boxes), and ripeness stage. The buyer also wants information on lead time, origin port, sample policy, minimum order quantity, and assures interest in a reliable, long-term supplier relationship.
