What is the production lead time for a bulk order?
Lead time depends on whether the oil is in stock or made to order. Standard stock items ship fast; full production runs are planned around the distillation season (autumn to early spring in Guangxi).
Lead Time Guide
| Scenario | Lead time |
|---|---|
| In-stock item (standard grade) | 3-7 days after payment confirmation |
| Small run (25-100 kg) | 7-15 days |
| Standard production run | 15-25 days |
| Large/contract order (1,000+ kg) | 25-40 days (production plan required) |
| OEM / private label with custom packaging | +7-15 days for label & packaging |
| Organic-grade dedicated batch | 30-60 days (separate grove & still program) |
- We keep buffer stock of the standard fragrance/cosmetic grade, so urgent orders can often ship within a week
- The fresh distillation season runs roughly September-March; new-season oil is typically the most fragrant and preferred by food and premium fragrance customers
- Production lead time is counted from receipt of the deposit and confirmed specification
