Annual Pinata Buying Calendar for Importers
Work backward from each selling window and preserve time for design, sample, packing confirmation, freight and receiving.
Work backward from each selling window and preserve time for design, sample, packing confirmation, freight and receiving.
Reorder from weeks of cover, selling window and carton volume rather than waiting until the best design is gone.
Make a first order answer a small number of commercial questions instead of scattering budget across too many designs.
Choose the supply route by order complexity, speed, inventory risk and the amount of control your team can manage.
Ask questions that reveal how the supplier controls handmade variation, approvals, packing and export handover.
Verify who samples, makes, packs and invoices the order, then decide whether that operating model fits your risk.
Turn a bulky handmade product into a store-ready program with disciplined SKU roles, packaging data and replenishment rules.
Build a practical standard-product range around event use, carton volume, van space, storage, venue handling and fast reordering.
Design a distributor range that can serve different accounts without turning warehouse space into slow-moving inventory.
Build a focused first pinata range around store space, customer occasions, price roles and a practical reorder plan.
