Checklist

• Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.
• Record the arrival condition with photographs on the day of delivery.
• Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
• Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
• Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
• 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

Is freight insurance worth it for Zeal orders?

For container level orders it is; the premium is small relative to the exposure from loss, theft or water damage.

Is documentation provided for customs?

Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.

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.

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.

Final word

The buyers who do this well are not luckier; they are simply more consistent about the basics.
