Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (152 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (1900 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
| Container (18115 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
Frequently asked questions
Is freight insurance worth it for Box 3 orders?
For container level orders it is; the premium is small relative to the exposure from loss, theft or water damage.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Is documentation provided for customs?
Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.
Final word
