Why carton and pallet configuration matters on the Zeal 5
Inner tray counts should be chosen so a single carton matches a realistic week of counter sales.
Documentation is not paperwork for its own sake; on carton and pallet configuration it is the difference between a clean clearance and a delayed one.

Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Agreeing a defect handling procedure before the first shipment removes emotion from later conversations.

| Carton (128 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (994 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (6994 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
Frequently asked questions
How should a Zeal 5 carton be configured?

Is documentation provided for customs?
Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
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.
