This FAQ gives wholesale buyers a short, practical answer before they contact AfriWear about men’s tracksuits and casual sportswear from Guangzhou.
Quick Answer
Clothing buyers should compare air, sea and consolidated shipping only after the supplier provides carton count, dimensions and weight. The decision depends on order size, timing needs, destination handling and the forwarder's service scope. Buyers should confirm what the quoted trade and transport terms include instead of choosing from one freight number alone.
Air shipping favors speed-sensitive tests
Air can suit smaller or urgent orders, but the buyer needs accurate chargeable-weight data. Confirm whether pickup, export handling and destination services are included.
Sea shipping needs stronger carton planning
Sea options are usually evaluated for larger volume. Buyers should confirm cubic volume, sailing schedule, destination arrangements and whether cargo is shipped alone or consolidated.
Consolidation requires clear handoff details
When goods share space with other cargo, item codes, carton marks and forwarder instructions become especially important. Confirm the receiving warehouse and required paperwork before delivery.
