What is All the Fuss About FOB?

FOB is short forFree On Board or Freight On Board. In other words, who pays the freight from the factory to you?

We offer three options:

  1. F.O.B. Origin:  This term mean that the customer is responsible for the international and domestic shipping on the product from the origin location (China, Taiwan, or some other origination point) to their dock.
  2. F.O.B Ship point: This means that the customer is responsible for the shipping from our (Focus) warehouse in Mesa, AZ to their dock.
  3. F.O.B Destination: This means that Focus is responsible for all shipping costs from the manufacturer to the end customer’s dock.
So what is the best option?
At Focus Display Solutions we recommend option 2, FOB ship point. This allows the customer to ship from AZ to their location on either their UPS, Fed Ex account or on the Focus UPS account.
