Demand Planning
What is a case pack and how does it affect ordering?
A case pack is the fixed number of units in a shipping case. Orders are placed in whole cases, so the case size is the smallest increment you can buy or sell into wholesale. A twelve-unit case means a retailer wanting sixteen takes twelve or twenty-four.
Case pack, inner pack, and pallet tie-high all constrain the order, and retailers frequently specify their own. Selling the same product to three retailers in three configurations is a packaging problem before it is an inventory one.
