Tis the season… for manufacturing delays
If you sell products online you probably work with China - this is the time of year that you can usually start expecting massive manufacturing delays.From now through the rest of the year manufacturers will be working overtime to hit tight production schedules for the holidays.
For most large retailers the window has already passed, but if you are doing a small production run you probably have time for production and air shipping (obviously at this point a boat is out of the question).
The nice thing is that this year you have a little more time to get orders in before Chinese New Year - Chinese New Year is on Valentine’s Day this year, buying you a couple more weeks to get orders in before the whole country takes a week and a half break.
If you think this is interesting you might enjoy a quick post I wrote for Sewell’s support site today - Why do cable prices fluctuate so much? (The answer is copper prices in case you’re wondering)

Its when production schedules do not adhere to time management sets, that manufacturing delays become endemic.
