The Furniture Import Academy
Everything we tell buyers on calls, written down: how to order from India so problems get caught early or never happen. Free, module by module, publishing through Year 1.
Academy modules
The first-order playbook
From shortlist to first container: sequencing verification, samples, deposits and inspections so the risk never stacks.
Writing a spec a factory can't misread
Dimensions with tolerances, moisture as a number, golden-sample rules, hardware BOMs.
Payment terms that protect you
Deposit sizing, milestone payments and the clause that changes behaviour: balance against a passed PSI report.
When a shipment arrives wrong
Evidence, classification, claim letters and the negotiation sequence that actually recovers money.
Written for importers, e-commerce sellers and buying teams placing their first or their fiftieth India order—practical over theoretical, Modules publish here one at a time; until a module is live, its card links to the closest existing guide or to a call with an inspector. The point of the track is fewer surprises per container.
Your next India order. Protected.
Confirmed within 24 hours. Report within 24 hours of inspection.
