Sourcing: Chestnut — what must the PO specify?

admin

We are buying Chestnut from Qianxi, Hebei for a first order.

Season: Sep-Oct harvest. The spec we were offered is "40-60 pcs/kg, vacuum kernels".

What should the PO pin down so the bulk matches the sample?

Pin these: 40-60 pcs/kg, vacuum kernels, the packing dimensions with a photo, and the inspection method. For Chestnut the usual failure is mould in transit — write it as a numbered clause, not as "export standard".
