I'm sorry, I don't have much context. It's simply a description of the various stages of a shipment from one company to another, with various stops along the way. The first stage, in which this abbreviation appears, reads: , , , DOP
The only relevant information about the case is that at the final destination the contents turned up missing and the document deals with the financial and insurance ramifications of this.
It is just possible that this is a shipping term already in English, but I can't seem to find it. The other abbreviations in the document are in French, however.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Protected Designation of Origin
Dénomination d'Origine Protegé is the meaning of the French Acronym.
Discussion
Additionally, neither Dominican peso nor Designation of Origin fit my context due to the countries and products involved in the transaction.
It remains a mystery, as the client never got back to me.
