CUSTOMER STORY | JUNE 2025
A smooth FOB order with port footage recorded by our own team.
Our team recorded the machine during the port delivery process. The actual Hitachi 470 supplied for this order.
I’m Kan from Anhui Gangya Construction Machinery Sales Co., Ltd. In June 2025, one of our long-term partners, a Vietnamese trading company, ordered this used Hitachi 470 from us.
The deal was straightforward because we had already worked together before. After the machine was confirmed, we prepared it under FOB terms and delivered it to the agreed port in China.
A simple FOB handover—and an honest record
My older brother, who works with our company, went to the port and recorded the machine on video. The pictures in this case were taken from that video, showing the excavator, its ZAXIS 470 marking and the machine leaving on a low-bed trailer.
After the excavator reached the agreed port, the buyer handled the onward shipment under the FOB arrangement. I did not receive a confirmed final destination. I was told it might be resold to the Middle East, possibly Iraq, but I cannot verify that. The accurate record is that our buyer was the Vietnamese trading company and we delivered the machine to the agreed Chinese port.
We did not make much profit on this unit, but everything went smoothly. Later, the same partner returned and ordered several more Hitachi machines from us. For me, repeat business matters more than trying to make the most money from one deal.
