Esco Bars Citrus Pro: Freight Insurance and Risk Cover for Distributors
Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk

In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Citrus Pro.
Why freight insurance and risk cover matters on the Citrus Pro
Cover should start at the factory gate rather than at the port of loading.
Keeping a short internal note on freight insurance and risk cover for each SKU pays for itself the first time a dispute arises over the Citrus Pro.
Declared value needs to match the commercial invoice or claims are reduced proportionally.
