Packed by store, not by product line
Boxes are numbered the way the room gets built: store, zone, then sequence.

01Numbering
Each carton carries three marks — store number, zone letter and its position in the sequence — so 12-D-03 reads as store twelve, dining zone, third box, and the installer opens it in the order the room is built. The installer opens D boxes first because that is the order the room is laid out in.
Zones are agreed per plan: D for dining, B for booth, C for counter, S for spares. On a small format the letters collapse into one, and the sequence still holds.
02Every store gets its own container
Stack the cartons loose, label nothing, and a 40HQ takes four stores' worth of chairs. We load one store instead, with a load plan that gives the driver and the site the same sequence.
Small formats can share a container with a neighbouring city, and each store keeps its own carton sequence and its own packing list inside that box.
03Photograph before the doors close
Tops are corner-protected, booth runs are crated on edge, and each carton is photographed against its label before the doors close, so a claim starts from an image rather than from a description written three weeks later at the site. If something arrives damaged, the photograph decides it.
Spares are in the same container, so a chipped top costs a swap rather than a week.
?Questions
EXW or DDP?
Both. EXW Foshan if you have a forwarder, DDP to the site if you would rather handle one invoice. The load plan is the same either way.
Can cartons be delivered in two drops?
Yes, with the store split marked on the packing list. Sites that are not ready hold the second drop rather than the whole container.
What about installation instructions?
Numbered cartons, a layout drawing and a fixings count per run. Video walk-through for booth assembly on request.
Send the plan for the next twelve openings
Store count, opening dates and the floor plan are enough to start. What comes back is a wave schedule, a quantity per unit and one sheet with every line on it.
