THE BUYING ANSWER

Start with a clear definition.

Compare the proposed unit arrangement, protection and handling needs in a filled carton. Record the count for each product or mixed configuration. The highest possible count is not automatically the approved packing arrangement.

The decision behind the detail.

Increasing count may affect pressure on decoration or carton dimensions. Review the packed sample before fixing the number.

PREPARE ONLY WHAT IS RELEVANT

Three details to bring.

Proposed count
State units per carton for each configuration.
Arrangement
Describe rows, layers or inner packs.
Review concerns
List product protection and handling questions.

Check together

  • Check the arrangement with actual retail packs.
  • Reconcile carton count with the order allocation.
  • Record any partial-carton treatment separately.
