Checklist

• Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
• Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
• Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
• Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
• Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.
• Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.

Commercial terms

Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.

Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.

Do you support long term supply agreements?

Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.

For established configurations production typically runs two to four weeks, with transit on top depending on the chosen method.
