Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk

Import duties and customs treatment materially change the landed cost of Aero S.

Buyers who treat import duties and customs as a commercial discipline rather than an afterthought tend to hold margin for longer.

The most common mistake is optimising for the first order instead of the fourth, which is where Aero S economics actually settle.

Checklist

• Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
• Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
• Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
• Record the arrival condition with photographs on the day of delivery.
• Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
• Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.

Commercial terms

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

Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
