Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Authenticity checks protect distributors and retailers from grey market Crown stock.
Between the factory gate and the retail shelf, authenticity checks is where most of the value on the Crown is either created or lost.
Seasonality interacts with authenticity checks more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.

A scratch code or QR verification on every unit is now the minimum expectation.
In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Crown.
Batch numbers should match between inner tray, carton and invoice.
