Why Paying for Delivery Matters in the Precision Machining Industry

In an era dominated by Amazon Prime, where free delivery has become the norm, many consumers balk at paying delivery charges, especially from smaller companies. However, when it comes to ordering precision machined parts, the expectations and requirements for delivery are vastly different.

Sam Brown, Head of Sales & Marketing from Penta Precision explains in his blog why the delivery charge on your quote is much more than just the cost of transportation. For Penta Precision, ensuring that machined components arrive safely and in perfect condition is paramount. This dedication is encapsulated in their '3Cs': care, communication, and consistency.
