Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.

| Pallet (1484 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |

Frequently asked questions
Is freight insurance worth it for Vibe Air orders?

Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
