FAQ / BUYER GUIDE

Common questions from
garment buyers.

These answers explain the normal Hamida Traders process. Specific stock, commercial, payment, inspection and shipment terms remain subject to the exact transaction being discussed.

01
BUYER PORTAL

Why should I submit my buying requirements?

The Buyer Requirement Portal records the garment categories and exact product types your company is interested in. This helps Hamida Traders keep future matched stock communication relevant rather than sending unrelated products.

REQUIREMENTS
02
APPROVAL

Does email verification automatically approve my buyer account?

No. The six-digit email verification step confirms the email stage only. Buyer approval is a separate Hamida Traders admin review. Until approved, the buyer remains pending.

SEPARATE REVIEW
03
STOCK MATCHING

Will I receive every stock offer available?

No. Approved buyer stock communication is intended to follow the exact requirements selected by the buyer. Products outside those interests should not be treated as matched stock offers.

RELEVANT ONLY
04
WAREHOUSE STOCK

Does Hamida Traders keep garments in its own warehouse?

Selected garments may be physically held in the Hamida Traders warehouse. These can offer a more direct review and preparation path than stock that must still be coordinated from a factory or another source.

DIRECT STOCK
05
SOURCED STOCK

Can Hamida Traders source stock based on my requirement?

Yes, relevant stock opportunities may also be sourced and coordinated according to buyer requirements. Availability depends on the market and the actual opportunity found.

SOURCING
06
SAMPLES

Is the standard product sample free?

Yes. Hamida Traders provides the standard quality-check sample free. Normally this is one representative garment; where useful and available, one or two garment colors may be supplied. In some cases one garment plus additional fabric/color swatches is the better way to show other available colors.

FREE SAMPLE
07
COURIER

Who pays for sample delivery?

The buyer pays the courier or freight cost. The buyer may also provide an available courier account for dispatch. The free standard sample does not include courier or freight charges.

MORE SAMPLES

What if I need more colors, sizes or sample pieces?

Contact Hamida Traders by email. We will confirm availability and whether any additional sample or product charge applies to the expanded sample request.

09
STOCK RESERVATION

Does receiving or approving a sample reserve the full stock?

No. A sample request, dispatch or approval does not automatically reserve the remaining stock. Any reservation or purchase confirmation must be agreed separately.

NOT RESERVED
10
QUALITY CONTROL

Can quality or inspection checks be coordinated?

For applicable opportunities, Hamida Traders can coordinate an agreed stock review. Depending on the stock, this may cover product identity, size/color assortment, quantity information, visible workmanship and condition, labels, packing or cartons where relevant.

QC / INSPECTION
11
QUALITY LIMITS

Does an inspection mean a universal quality guarantee?

No. Inspection information relates to the actual agreed scope and stock reviewed. It should not be interpreted as a blanket certification or guarantee beyond that review.

SCOPE-BASED
12
PAYMENT

What payment methods are available?

The applicable method depends on the transaction. TT may be used for applicable confirmed orders. Selected Hamida Traders warehouse stock may be purchased under agreed direct cash/settlement terms. The final commercial offer confirms the payment route.

ORDER-SPECIFIC
13
L/C AT SIGHT

Is L/C at Sight available for every stock purchase?

No. L/C at Sight is limited to the relevant shipment-cancelled garment stock that remains at the factory and must be exported by the factory. The transaction must follow the applicable Bangladesh export, banking and garments-industry requirements.

LIMITED USE
14
SHIPPING

Does every order use the same shipping method?

No. The suitable arrangement depends on the confirmed stock, quantity, destination and commercial terms. Shipment preparation and export coordination follow the agreed transaction.

TRANSACTION-BASED
15
ORDER STATUS

Is receiving a stock email the same as placing an order?

No. A stock communication presents a relevant opportunity for review. The transaction proceeds only after the necessary product, commercial and other applicable terms are separately confirmed.

NOT AN ORDER
BEFORE YOU PROCEED

Three buyer checkpoints
worth remembering.

01

Match the Exact Offer

Always review information against the specific stock opportunity being discussed. Stocklot products can differ in quantity, assortment, packing and other characteristics.

02

Confirm Commercial Terms

Payment method, price, shipment responsibility and other commercial conditions should follow the final agreed offer or transaction documents.

03

Verify Payment Instructions

Use only payment instructions provided through the approved Hamida Traders commercial communication for the relevant transaction. Unexpected bank-detail changes should be verified before payment.
