Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Payment history is the single most reliable route to better terms, more than total annual volume.

Frequently asked questions
Is freight insurance worth it for Zen 2 orders?
For container level orders it is; the premium is small relative to the exposure from loss, theft or water damage.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.
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.
