Cover should start at the factory gate rather than at the port of loading.

• Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
• Confirm the exact configuration in writing before the deposit is paid.
• Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
• Record the arrival condition with photographs on the day of delivery.
• Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
