Delivery Requirements for Shipping Products to Kotis

  • updated 3 wk ago

Inventory Exclusivity Provision

Before sending products to Kotis warehouses, please note the Inventory Exclusivity provision in our contract. You must allow Kotis to bid on all items sent to our warehouse. For more details, refer to our guide, Understanding Non-Kotis Made Products.

If Kotis is unable to produce the product for you, you can send it to our warehouse once approved from our team. Non-Kotis-produced merchandise will be charged a fee equal to 20% of the product value. This 20% fee covers the cost of warehousing, fulfillment, packaging, cycle counting, insurance, end-user support, and more. We cannot provide those services at no cost for items that we did not make. This fee does not apply to inventory being transferred to Kotis as part of initial onboarding, as long as you tell us about the inventory before signing and follow our delivery guidelines.
