Air Bar Flux: Sample Order Workflow for Distributors
Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
A disciplined sample workflow shortens the path from first interest to a Flux purchase order.
Between the factory gate and the retail shelf, sample order workflow is where most of the value on the Flux is either created or lost.
Freight consolidation changes the answer to sample order workflow at container scale, which is why small and large buyers reach different conclusions.
Why sample order workflow matters on the Flux
Request samples with the final specification, not an approximation.
Keeping a short internal note on sample order workflow for each SKU pays for itself the first time a dispute arises over the Flux.
Evaluate across at least two weeks of real use.

Commercial terms
Most long running accounts settle into a rhythm of monthly top ups with one larger seasonal build per year.
Payment history is the single most reliable route to better terms, more than total annual volume.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |

| Carton (160 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (1195 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
| Container (17990 units) | Tier 3 | 7-12 days |
Frequently asked questions
How many Flux samples should we request?
Three to five units per shortlisted configuration is enough to judge consistency.
What happens if a batch fails inspection?
The agreed procedure normally covers replacement of affected units or credit against the next order, documented before shipment.
Can several models be mixed in one shipment?
Yes, mixing models and flavours within a carton or pallet is common and usually helps first time buyers test demand.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Final word
None of this is complicated, but it does need to be written down and reviewed on a schedule.
