How should freight and logistics costs be charged to UK wholesalers—built into the price or as a separate line item?
Members build logistics costs into their overall price structure rather than treating them as wholly separate. The typical approach is:
- **Integrated pricing**: Incorporate transport and logistics into your price trees so wholesalers see a single, clean unit price. - **MOQ threshold**: Charge shipping as an additional line item only for orders below your minimum order quantity (MOQ). Once a wholesaler hits the MOQ, logistics is absorbed into the negotiated price.
This approach simplifies invoicing for regular, larger orders while protecting margin on smaller or trial orders.
