In the adult product e-commerce sector, peak seasons like Black Friday, Singles' Day, or Valentine's Day are sales explosion points, but the risk of stockouts that follow is a nightmare for sellers. water based lubricant, as a fast-moving consumer good with high repurchase frequency, if out of stock, not only will rankings instantly collapse, but advertising costs will also go to waste. To ensure a stable supply chain during peak seasons, brands must master a systematic golden stocking rule to keep control in their own hands.
First rule: Establish a dynamic rolling alert for "lead time." Considering that the production of medical-grade lubricants involves raw material quality inspection, filling, and microbiological testing cycles, it is recommended to place orders at least 4-6 weeks in advance. The second rule is to find "OEM partners with scalable production capacity." If a factory only has two or three simple production lines, it is easy to experience delays during peak seasons due to scheduling overload. Large factories with more than 10 automated production lines, capable of producing hundreds of thousands of units daily, have the resilience to manage risks. The third rule is "pre-stock multiple specifications," using a combination of bulk packaging and single-use packaging (bagged/needle tube) sales to flexibly manage inventory pressure.
In addition, backup in the logistics process should not be overlooked. During peak seasons, packaging material suppliers often face shortages. Reliable manufacturers usually maintain large packaging material reserves. Brands should choose suppliers that offer "one-stop warehousing and distribution support" and have long-term stable cooperation experience with major brands. This strong partnership ensures that even during industry-wide shortages, your products remain steadily on shelves, capturing the traffic benefits lost by competitors.
