One brief for the product and its destination
For price indicating strips and other retail display components, include the quantities required for each store or project. If several sizes or colours are involved, identify how they should be allocated. Industrial fastener and pool accessory enquiries benefit from the same clear separation of product specification and destination.
Provide the delivery town, postcode and full address when available. Tell the team whether goods are going to one central receiving point or several sites, and include relevant access or receiving instructions.
Build a practical delivery schedule
Share your required date and explain whether it relates to delivery, installation or a store opening. For phased work, list each destination and its proposed date. Springlok can use this information when preparing the quotation and discussing supply arrangements.
Delivery charges, dispatch timing, packaging and any special handling requirements need to be confirmed for the actual order. A requested date is part of the brief until the schedule is agreed.
- Products and quantities by destination.
- Contact and receiving details for each location.
- Long-length or special packaging requirements.
- Phased delivery needs and project dates.
Keep programme changes visible
If store quantities, specifications or destinations change, send an updated schedule that clearly replaces the previous version. Retaining the accepted quotation and delivery allocation together helps keep repeat or phased enquiries consistent.
For destinations beyond South Africa, use the African export enquiry guidance to add the information needed for a cross-border quotation.
