Frequently asked questions

Should Box X be discounted to launch?

Can several models be mixed in one shipment?

Yes, mixing models and flavours within a carton or pallet is common and usually helps first time buyers test demand.

Do you support long term supply agreements?

Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.

Is documentation provided for customs?

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