Song-- what is CIP?

from The Scarf Sourcing Brief

Song - What is CIP? is an educational rap song that explains the trade term CIP (Carriage and Insurance Paid To) in a simple, catchy, and easy-to-remember way. The song shows that under CIP, the seller pays for the carriage and also buys insurance for the shipment, but the risk transfers to the buyer once the goods are handed over to the first carrier.With a clear hook and repeatable lyrics, this track helps listeners understand one of the most important points in international trade: paying for transport and insurance does not mean carrying the risk all the way to the destination. Under CIP, the seller pays more, but the risk still moves earlier than many people expect.This song is ideal for importers, exporters, sourcing professionals, logistics learners, and anyone studying Incoterms. It turns a complex shipping rule into a memorable learning track that is easy to understand, easy to repeat, and useful in real business communication.
