VapeWholesaleHubLavender Ice Inventory Turnover Benchmarks for Stores — Three Price Tiers
Most first time importers of lavender ice ask the same five questions. This page answers them in the order they usually arrive, with the numbers we quote internally rather than round marketing claims.
Reading a Lavender Ice Spec Sheet
Where possible, tie part of the lavender ice payment to inspection against the written spec. It focuses attention on the numbers rather than on the relationship.
Specification sheets are where a lavender ice deal is won or quietly lost. Two samples can look and taste the same while using different coil wire, different wicking density and different tolerances on the mouthpiece. Those details decide how the unit behaves in week three rather than minute three.
| Product category | Refillable kit |
|---|---|
| Resistance band | 0.8 - 1.0 ohm |
| Capacity tolerance | +/- 2% |
| Puff count method | Declared by capacity |
| Master carton | 120 units |
| Carton weight | 9.5 kg |
| Shelf life | 12 months |
| Storage | 15-25 C, dry, away from direct light |
How Lavender Ice Batches Are Checked
Random checks are fine, but weight the sample towards the start and end of a lavender ice production run. Those are where a line is most likely to drift.
The cheapest quality control step is a retained sample. Keeping three sealed units from every lavender ice batch costs almost nothing and turns any dispute into a simple comparison instead of an argument over photographs.
- Confirm the current customs classification with your own broker.
- Agree the tolerance band in writing before approving artwork.
- Check carton dimensions against your freight quote before confirming.
- Keep sealed retained samples from every production batch.
- Ask how the factory measures puff count, then compare like with like.
Selling Lavender Ice at Store Level
Put lavender ice where the decision is made, not where the margin is highest. In most stores that means near the counter or at eye level in the category, rather than wherever there is spare space.
Freight, Customs and Timing
Freight is the hidden half of lavender ice unit economics. A denser master carton can save more per unit than a hard negotiation on factory price, because the saving repeats on every reorder rather than once.
Where Lavender Ice Sits in the Range
Think about where lavender ice sits in your customer's week. If it is a weekly restock, breadth matters less than availability. If it is an occasional treat, flavour range and display story carry more weight.
Range decisions for lavender ice should start from shelf space, not from a supplier catalogue. Count the facings you actually have, then decide how many of them this line deserves against what it currently earns.
Practical Checklist
- Agree the tolerance band in writing before approving artwork.
- Check carton dimensions against your freight quote before confirming.
- Plan the switch from air to sea freight before you need it.
- Keep sealed retained samples from every production batch.
- Confirm the current customs classification with your own broker.
- Ask how the factory measures puff count, then compare like with like.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if my market changes its rules?
Regulations move, and packaging or documentation sometimes has to follow. We keep approved artwork files on hand so that a required change is a reprint rather than a redesign, which keeps the cost and delay down.
What if a batch does not match the sample?
Keep the retained samples from the approval stage. If a delivered batch measurably differs, we compare against the retained set and resolve it against the production record. This is why we insist on sealed retained units from every run.
Is there a warranty on lavender ice?
Manufacturing defects are covered against the retained sample standard. Normal wear, misuse and damage after opening are not. We publish the threshold in the order terms so both sides know exactly what the claim process looks like.
What if I only need a small first order?
That is normal and sensible. A mixed carton lets you test lavender ice in your own market before committing to a production run, and the specification you approve at that stage carries through to larger orders unchanged.
Next Step
If you are comparing options right now, send us the specification you have been quoted elsewhere. A side by side reading usually shows where the price difference actually comes from, and that is the most useful first conversation to have.
