Why storage and shelf life matters on the Vibe 3
Cool, dry and dark storage preserves flavour stability over the stated shelf life.
Freight consolidation changes the answer to storage and shelf life at container scale, which is why small and large buyers reach different conclusions.
First in first out rotation prevents older batches ageing on the shelf.

Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (190 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (907 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (8957 units) | Tier 3 | 30-45 days |
