Checklist

• Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
• Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.

Commercial terms

Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.

Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.

Frequently asked questions

What shelf life should a Zen 4 order assume?

Plan around twelve to twenty four months depending on format, and rotate stock accordingly.

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.

How quickly can a repeat order be produced?

For established configurations production typically runs two to four weeks, with transit on top depending on the chosen method.

Do you support long term supply agreements?

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

Final word

Start with one change, measure it over a quarter, then decide whether it deserves to become policy.
