SHIPPING GUIDELINES

• When shipping multiple products in boxes via courier, products should be packaged with one SKU per box where possible. • Boxes should be numbered on the outside of the box (1 of 6, 2 of 6, etc.) • If one SKU is in multiple boxes those boxes should be in sequence. For example, the same SKU should be in boxes 1,2 & 3 not 1, 3 & 6. • Beverages being shipped on pallets should be shipped similarly to boxes with one SKU loaded on the pallet first, followed by the next SKU and so on. • The beverage SKU with the largest number of product cases being shipped should be on the bottom rows of the pallet.
