Checklist

Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.
Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
Keep certificates current and filed against the exact model name.

Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
