|---|---|---|
| Carton (66 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (611 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (12507 units) | Tier 3 | 30-45 days |
Frequently asked questions
How much shelf space should Zen 5 get?
Enough for a full flavour block; partial ranges confuse customers and slow rotation.
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.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.
Final word
Start with one change, measure it over a quarter, then decide whether it deserves to become policy.
