Pallet (761 units)	Tier 2	14-21 days
Container (5152 units)	Tier 3	30-45 days

Frequently asked questions

Is freight insurance worth it for Gold S 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.

Is documentation provided for customs?

Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.

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

A short quarterly review of these points will keep the Gold S range healthy without consuming the week.
