Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Payment history is the single most reliable route to better terms, more than total annual volume.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (168 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (1220 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (7700 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
Frequently asked questions
How much shelf space should Elite S get?
Enough for a full flavour block; partial ranges confuse customers and slow rotation.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.
How quickly can a repeat order be produced?
For established configurations production typically runs two to four weeks, with transit on top depending on the chosen method.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Final word
None of this is complicated, but it does need to be written down and reviewed on a schedule.
