Commercial terms
Most long running accounts settle into a rhythm of monthly top ups with one larger seasonal build per year.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (75 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (941 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
| Container (15014 units) | Tier 3 | 7-12 days |
Frequently asked questions
Should Box X be discounted to launch?
A short introductory offer works; repeated hardware discounting damages the perceived value of the range.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.
Is documentation provided for customs?
Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.
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
The buyers who do this well are not luckier; they are simply more consistent about the basics.
