FAQ

Questions from Commercial Buyers

Common questions from importers, garden centers, and landscape architects

What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ) for wholesale terracotta pots?
Our standard MOQ is one 20-foot container (approximately 3,500–5,000 units depending on pot size). For standard catalog items, we can accommodate mixed containers. Custom OEM projects require a minimum per design to justify tooling costs. Request a quote for specific MOQs based on your product mix and destination port.
How long is your production lead time for orders to the USA?
Standard catalog items: 45–60 days production + 25–30 days ocean freight to US West Coast, 35–40 days to East Coast. Custom OEM projects: 75–90 days including tooling and sample approval. We recommend placing seasonal orders 4 months in advance. See our container loading guide →
Are your terracotta pots suitable for outdoor use in cold climates?
Our terracotta is high-fired at 1000°C+ to achieve maximum vitrification. The Indus River clay's natural mineral composition provides excellent structural integrity. For best results in freeze-thaw climates, we recommend proper drainage and elevating pots off the ground. Many clients in Michigan, New York, and the UK have used our pots successfully for years. Read our drainage guide →
Do you offer custom colors, sizes, or embossed branding for private label programs?
Absolutely. Our OEM/ODM services include custom sizes (any diameter/height), proprietary glaze colors, embossed logos, debossed patterns, and custom drainage configurations. We create production samples within 2–3 weeks of design approval, with full container production following sample sign-off. All designs are protected under NDA. Start an OEM project →
What certifications do you hold for ethical and quality compliance?
We are ISO 9001:2015 certified for quality management and SMETA audited for ethical trade practices (labor standards, health & safety, environmental compliance). We provide full documentation for US Customs, EU import requirements, and corporate ethical sourcing audits upon request. Download compliance documentation →
How do I import terracotta pots from Pakistan to the USA?
We handle the full export process from our Karachi facility. You provide your destination port and preferred Incoterms (FOB, CIF, or DDP), and we manage documentation, HTS code classification, and customs paperwork.
