Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (143 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (1263 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (10879 units) | Tier 3 | 30-45 days |

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.
