Restocking a Small Shop in Syria: Monthly or Weekly?

If your shop needs about ninety kilograms, three large cartons cost $60 to the north, $69 to the centre and $75 to Damascus, while six medium cartons cost $90, $102 and $120. So collect the month’s orders at the warehouse and ship in full large cartons, unless your stock sells out faster than that.

The sum that changes your decision

The published Syria table prices each carton by zone: a large carton (80×50×50 cm, up to 30 kg) is $20 to the north, $23 to the centre and $25 to Damascus, and a medium (up to 15 kg) is $15, $17 and $20. Ninety kilograms in three large cartons costs $60, $69 and $75, and in six medium cartons $90, $102 and $120. The difference repeats every month, so do not ignore it.

Collect at the warehouse, then ship

You do not have to pay freight with every order. Your purchases from different stores arrive at our warehouse in Türkiye, where we keep them free for 30 days, so you can gather them until they fill large cartons and ship together. Ask each store to write your name on the parcel so orders do not mix, and review the pieces at the warehouse before paying to ship them.

When a weekly order is enough

If your stock turns fast, such as socks and underwear that run out in two weeks, waiting a month means empty shelves and customers going elsewhere. Keep the weekly order small but full, and do not ship a half-empty carton, since the carton price is fixed whether it holds five kilograms or thirty.

What a shop owner should check

Keep the stores’ invoices with their names and quantities, and separate each item type in a clear bag so you can count on arrival. How Syria treats commercial quantities is set and changed by the authorities there, so ask a trader you know or a clearing agent before you enlarge an order. Make sure someone receives during shop hours. Published rates are reference rates excluding customs, and are confirmed per shipment once the contents and destination are known.

Common questions

Is the large carton cheaper for a small shop in Syria?

Yes by the published prices, it is cheaper than two medium cartons to every zone, provided you fill it.

How long can I wait to collect orders?

Storage is free for 30 days, so gather what you need within it and ship when the cartons are full.

Should I ship a half-empty carton?

Better not, the price is fixed per carton, so a few days’ wait to fill it costs you less.
