Size, Color And SKU Planning
Questions that clarify how buyers should plan a style range.
What size range can Runze Apparel discuss?
Common size planning can be discussed from S to 5XL depending on the style, fabric, fit and buyer market.
What does size ratio mean?
Size ratio means how the buyer wants to split the order quantity across sizes. For example, a boutique may need more M and L sizes than smaller or larger sizes depending on its market.
What does color planning mean?
Color planning means choosing which colors should be produced or quoted for a style. Buyers can discuss ready color options, market-preferred colors or custom color direction depending on the order plan.
What is SKU planning?
SKU planning means organizing each style by color and size. For example, 10 colors and 8 sizes create 80 planned SKUs if every color is offered in every size.
3 questions
Trade Terms
Questions that help buyers discuss export and delivery terms.

EXW, FCA and FOB can be discussed for standard export orders. DAP/DDP can be quoted separately after confirming destination country, address, quantity and packing details.
What is the difference between EXW, FCA, FOB, DAP and DDP?
EXW means the buyer arranges pickup and shipping. FCA means goods are handed to the buyer's nominated carrier at an agreed place. FOB means the supplier handles export and delivery to the departure port. DAP means delivery to the destination address is quoted, but import duties are usually handled by the buyer. DDP means delivery including duties and taxes where available and confirmed.
Why does Runze Apparel ask for destination country?
Destination country affects shipping method, packing discussion, trade term choice, customs planning and DAP/DDP feasibility, so buyers should include it in the RFQ.
