Freight consolidation changes the answer to distribution channels at container scale, which is why small and large buyers reach different conclusions.
Seasonality interacts with distribution channels more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Checklist
- Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.
- Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.

- Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
