Commercial terms
Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.
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 (142 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (738 units) | Tier 2 | 7-12 days |
| Container (11230 units) | Tier 3 | 14-21 days |
Frequently asked questions
What shelf life should a Prime order assume?
Plan around twelve to twenty four months depending on format, and rotate stock accordingly.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.
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.
Final word
None of this is complicated, but it does need to be written down and reviewed on a schedule.
