Fafsico LLC Retailers Group welcomes the opportunity to extend an open line of credit to organizations with which we will be doing business. We have prepared this policy statement to explain our credit and ordering terms. If this does not answer all of your questions, please contact our Credit or Sales department at (800) 233-2688. We look forward to a mutually beneficial relationship.
GRANTING OF CREDIT
A line of credit will be granted on the basis of the results of a credit investigation by the Credit Department as to the credit history and financial strength of the account in question.
All customers are required to complete and sign our credit application, which will provide the credit information needed to support the line of credit extended. This information will be held in strict confidence by Fafsico LLC Retailers Group. If additional information or clarification is needed, the account will be contacted by the Fafsico LLC Retailers Credit Department.

Payment in advance will be required when a customer’s credit history precludes the extension of open account credit, a collection problem exists, or the urgency of the shipment precludes a normal credit investigation. These terms will be administered by the Credit Department as required.
