Commercial terms

Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

Currency movement over a ninety day cycle can outweigh the difference between two competing quotations.

Frequently asked questions

How can Galex 2 currency risk be reduced?

Agree a currency and a validity window in writing, and consider hedging only the larger seasonal builds.

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.

Can packaging be adjusted for our market?

Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.

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.
