Why shipping and logistics matters on the Meta 2
Battery containing shipments require the correct dangerous goods documentation.
Cash flow is the quiet constraint behind shipping and logistics: the cheapest option is rarely the one that frees the most working capital.
Consolidating pallets reduces per unit freight meaningfully at container scale.

Checklist
- Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
- Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.

Commercial terms
Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.
