Documentation and regulatory reality

The compliance burden around 2025 in the Wholesale Chain: A Practical Overview — High Volume Planning is mostly about being boring and consistent.

Compliance is where 2025 in the Wholesale Chain: A Practical Overview — High Volume Planning either holds together or quietly falls apart.

Common questions

What happens if goods arrive damaged?

Photograph the cartons before unpacking, keep the packaging, and send the batch code with your claim. We settle legitimate freight damage as a credit or replacement on the following order rather than leaving it open for months.

Is there a warranty on hardware?

Hardware carries a limited warranty against manufacturing defects, covering dead on arrival and early failure within the stated period. Consumable parts such as coils and pods are excluded, as their life depends on how the end user treats them.

What shelf life should we plan around?

Unopened e-liquid is typically stable for around two years when stored cool and away from direct light, and device batteries lose capacity on a similar curve. We print manufacture dates and batch codes on every unit so stock rotation is straightforward.
