Firm vs Subject Offers: What’s the Difference?

In protein commodity trading, the type of offer you receive can completely change the outcome of a deal.

A subject offer is a “soft” quote. It signals market interest but doesn’t lock in terms. You might get “around $3,100/MT, not firm” — which means it’s open to change.

A firm offer, on the other hand, commits the seller to specific terms: price, quality, quantity, and validity period. Once accepted, it’s backed by a confirmation document that ensures the deal moves forward as agreed.

The challenge is that when firm offers are shared informally by email or WhatsApp, they may not carry the same weight as a signed confirmation. That’s where platforms like TradeCafe help. Every firm offer accepted on TradeCafe generates an official confirmation, so you know the deal is secure.
