Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.

|---|---|---|
| Carton (174 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (818 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (18549 units) | Tier 3 | 30-45 days |
Frequently asked questions
Should Autopod S be discounted to launch?
A short introductory offer works; repeated hardware discounting damages the perceived value of the range.
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.
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.
