A request we are still answering.
Request AT / 260914 / 01 arrived through the trade inquiry today. It is reproduced here as we hold it: the five facts, the open questions, and the scope that has already been confirmed in writing.
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Product request
RECEIVED · THROUGH THE TRADE INQUIRY · PREPARED BY THE TRADE DESK
Specification as received
Refined sesame oil, fit for retail bottling. The buyer holds a formal specification sheet and a certificate-of-analysis format; both are expected with the next reply. Until then we start work from the written description above.
Open questions
- Buyer specification sheet and certificate-of-analysis format, to be attached to the request.
- Packing method: flexitank or 190 kg drums. The answer changes the quotation, so it is asked before pricing.
- Whether the buyer's inspector attends the pre-loading check, or accepts our inspection summary.
Confirmed scope, in writing
As of , two licensed suppliers confirm availability for the stated window, and we confirm capability to certify, consolidate and ship the goods to Genoa. The scope is confirmed before any price is quoted. The quotation follows once the packing question is settled.
What this request becomes
On acceptance, the quotation for this request takes an order reference, and the record continues from there: documents, milestones and any exception, grouped under that reference. The pattern is the one already running on order AT-2026-018.
Status
Why a request, not a basket
Adey does not publish a stock list. Availability moves with seasons, licences and supplier capacity, so we confirm what is actually possible against a written request — then quotes.
