| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (65 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (1326 units) | Tier 2 | 7-12 days |
| Container (10293 units) | Tier 3 | 14-21 days |
Frequently asked questions
How much shelf space should Zeal 5 get?
Enough for a full flavour block; partial ranges confuse customers and slow rotation.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.
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.
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.
Final word
Start with one change, measure it over a quarter, then decide whether it deserves to become policy.
