“The customer urgently needs 10 sets of champagne gold stainless steel main tables and must deliver them next week. Can you do it?” — Every peak wedding season from April to June and September to November, overseas purchasers are always in a dilemma due to such urgent orders. On one side is the customer’s anxiety about urging the order, and on the other side is the supplier’s reply that “production capacity is fully loaded, and it will take at least 20 days”. Delayed delivery will result in liquidated damages at best, and at worst, watching the customer turn to competitors, with the hard-won cooperation going down the drain.
Difficult supply during peak seasons has long been a “persistent problem” in the procurement of stainless steel wedding furniture. As an integrated industry-trade enterprise, relying on our accurate grasp of the industry rhythm, we have laid out an inventory system in advance, realizing “spot quick delivery + urgent order fast production” for core models of stainless steel wedding furniture, so that you don’t have to worry about taking orders during peak seasons, and your customers won’t cancel orders.
I. Supply “Bottleneck” During Peak Seasons: Three Crises for Purchasers
The supply gap of traditional suppliers during peak seasons stems from “insufficient demand forecasting + insufficient production capacity flexibility”, directly pushing overseas purchasers to the brink of crisis:
- Dare Not Accept Orders Even When They Come: The customer clearly requires the delivery of stainless steel photo area furniture within 15 days, but the supplier gives a reply of “30 days minimum”. The purchaser dares not accept the order for fear of breach of contract, missing the order helplessly.
- Unable to Deliver After Accepting Orders: After barely accepting the order, the supplier repeatedly delays due to raw material shortages and insufficient workers. As the wedding date approaches, the furniture is still on the production line. The customer is furious and cancels the order directly, with all previous investments in vain.
- High Premium Cost for Urgent Orders: In order to retain customers, they have to find small factories for OEM urgent orders. Small factories use 201 stainless steel to impersonate 304 material, with thin plating that fades easily. Customers complain and claim compensation after receiving the goods, ruining their own reputation.
The core of these crises is that suppliers lack “peak season emergency capabilities”. With the double guarantee of “advance stock + own production capacity”, we solve the supply problem from the root.
II. Advance Stock + Flexible Production Capacity: Double Insurance for Peak Season Supply
Combined with the peak season sales data of stainless steel wedding furniture in the past 5 years, we have established a system of “core model stock + customized model fast production” to ensure fast and stable supply during peak seasons:
1. Core Models in Stock: Ship Immediately After Order, Arrive Within 15 Days
For the three categories of stainless steel wedding furniture with the largest order volume from overseas purchasers, we complete the stock preparation 3 months in advance, with sufficient inventory:
- Basic Main Tables/Guest Tables: 304 stainless steel round main tables (diameter 1.8m/2.2m), rectangular guest tables (1.2m/1.6m), with three popular platings of champagne gold, rose gold, and matte black. The stock of each specification is no less than 500 sets. The goods are shipped within 48 hours after ordering, arriving in European and American markets in 12-15 days, and in the Middle East market in 15-20 days.
- Core Furniture for Photo Area: Stainless steel vine flower stands and geometric background stands support simple size adjustments (such as height ±10cm). The spot stock starts from 300 sets, and adjusted orders are processed and shipped within 7 days.
- Matching Dining Chairs: More than 2,000 pieces of stainless steel dining chairs in simple non-carved style and light luxury edge-wrapped style are in stock in four popular colors, which can be seamlessly matched with the main table. Orders for the whole set can be arranged for shipment on the same day.
2. Customized Models Fast Production: 20 Days Minimum, No Quality Compromise
For orders with customization needs, relying on the flexible production capacity of our own factory, we realize “fast production without quality reduction”:
- Lock Raw Material Inventory in Advance: Sign a supply guarantee agreement with large stainless steel factories before the peak season, locking 1,000 tons of 304/316 stainless steel raw materials, with sufficient plating material reserves to avoid “production suspension due to material shortage”;
- Flexible Upgrade of Production Capacity: Launch the “three-shift” production mode during peak seasons, increasing the production lines from 3 to 5, and adding equipment for key processes such as laser engraving and welding. The production cycle of customized models is reduced from 30 days to 20-25 days. For urgent orders, “exclusive production lines” can be applied for, completing delivery in 15 days.
- Full-Process Quality Control: Even for urgent orders with fast production, material spectral testing, plating wear resistance testing, and finished product load-bearing testing are indispensable, ensuring that the quality of customized models is consistent with that of spot models, and avoiding quality problems due to rush work.
3. Intelligent Early Warning: Help You Lock Inventory in Advance
Provide “inventory early warning + stock preparation suggestions” services for overseas purchasers, turning passive order taking into active layout:
- Real-Time Inventory Query: Launch an online inventory query system, where the real-time inventory and available quantity of core models of stainless steel furniture are clear at a glance, allowing you to know what you’re doing before taking orders.
- Reserve Inventory on Demand: For long-term cooperative customers, a 10% deposit can be paid to reserve inventory of specified specifications and colors, with a maximum reservation period of 30 days, ensuring that goods can be shipped during peak seasons.
- Trend Forecasting Suggestions: One month before the peak season every year, release the popular trend report of stainless steel wedding furniture, and provide stock preparation suggestions based on inventory conditions, helping you reserve best-selling products in advance and seize market opportunities.
III. Confidence in Sufficient Stock: Hard Strength of Integrated Industry-Trade
The courage to stock up and the ability to produce quickly during peak seasons come from our full-chain control capability of the integrated industry-trade model:
- Own Factory Controls Production Capacity: A 20,000㎡ production base equipped with 20 laser cutting machines and 15 welding production lines can produce 100 sets of stainless steel wedding furniture per day during peak seasons, with stable and controllable production capacity;
- Data Support for Stable Forecasting: Integrate the peak season order data of the past 5 years, relying on the CRM system, analyze the furniture demand rules of weddings of different regions and themes, with the accuracy of stock preparation reaching 90%, avoiding inventory backlog.
- Dedicated Logistics Line Ensures Timeliness: Reach special peak season cooperation with DHL, COSCO Shipping, etc., giving priority to arranging shipping space, pre-reviewing customs clearance documents in advance, ensuring that furniture arrives quickly without delaying wedding arrangements.
During the wedding peak season, orders are business opportunities, and supply is confidence. With a sufficient stock of stainless steel wedding furniture, flexible production capacity adjustment, and accurate logistics guarantee, we help you accept every urgent order and retain every customer. This peak season, you don’t have to worry about supply anymore; just take orders with confidence, and leave the rest to us.
