You know the walk.
Aisle after aisle.
Boxes you paid for months ago.
Some move every week.
Most don’t.
That’s the 80/20 you live with:
a few codes pay the bills; the rest eat your margin.
The old answer was “carry more.”
It felt safe. It wasn’t.
It froze your cash.
We chose a different fix.
Inside our foundry we hold a permanent slot for the Top 38 SKUs.
Call it virtual stock—yours, without the holding cost.
The promise
We ship any of those 38 within 21 days of confirmation (EU + Norway).
If we’re late on what we control, you get €500 per delayed pallet.
Why that matters
- Less cash sitting on shelves.
- Fewer lost jobs on core items.
- A simple timer everyone can see.
For your procurement
- MOQ: 1 pallet (≈850–1,250 kg), mixed SKUs allowed.
- Capacity: up to 4 pallets/week.
- Incoterm: EXW (foundry). Door delivery at cost; EUR.1 + CMR provided.
- Payment: 10 days after delivery.
- Quality: MIL-A-18001K, ±3% tolerance, batch/serial + COA.
- Founder’s audit: 33% of shipments.
Three quick questions
- How much cash is sitting in slow anodes today?
- What’s your days-to-replenish on core SKUs?
- Who owns delivery/claims in your flow?
If you want a system that matches your 80/20 reality, let’s talk.
