Distribution
The Product Is Only Part of the Supply Conversation.
How sourcing, storage and transportation relate to the customer’s overall requirement.
Petroleum supply brings several activities together.
The product matters, but so do the arrangements connecting sourcing, storage, transportation and the customer’s requirement.
Begin With the Supply Requirement.
A supply discussion should establish the product, specification, quantity and intended destination.
These details create a shared starting point for the commercial and operational arrangements.
Understand the Role of Storage.
Storage may form part of the supply arrangement before products move onward.
Sanduff’s business includes storage activities involving other operators and independent marketers. The requirements and arrangements for a particular engagement need to be discussed individually.
Consider Transportation Alongside Supply.
Transportation connects products with their destinations.
Sanduff’s supporting activities include petroleum haulage and marine-logistics arrangements. The transportation scope depends on the supply requirement and the responsibilities agreed.
Keep Commercial Details Clear.
Product availability, pricing, delivery arrangements and responsibilities should not be assumed from a general service description.
They belong in the discussion of the specific engagement.
Think About the Ongoing Relationship.
Some customers have a single requirement; others have continuing demand.
Understanding that difference helps frame the conversation and identify which arrangements need attention.
At Sanduff, our mission emphasises lasting and beneficial relationships with customers, suppliers and business partners.
