Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (138 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (1254 units) | Tier 2 | 21-30 days |
| Container (13725 units) | Tier 3 | 14-21 days |
Frequently asked questions
Should Box 4 be discounted to launch?
A short introductory offer works; repeated hardware discounting damages the perceived value of the range.
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.
Is documentation provided for customs?
Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.
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.
Final word
A short quarterly review of these points will keep the Box 4 range healthy without consuming the week.
