Cash flow is the quiet constraint behind shelf merchandising: the cheapest option is rarely the one that frees the most working capital.
The most common mistake is optimising for the first order instead of the fourth, which is where Stark X economics actually settle.
Checklist
- Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
- Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
- Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
- Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
- Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.

Agreeing a defect handling procedure before the first shipment removes emotion from later conversations.

Frequently asked questions
How much shelf space should Stark X get?
Enough for a full flavour block; partial ranges confuse customers and slow rotation.
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.
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.

If only one thing changes after reading this, let it be the habit of checking shelf merchandising before reordering.
