Seasonality interacts with seasonal demand planning more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Why seasonal demand planning matters on the Sakura 3
Order production slots well ahead of the peak to avoid factory congestion.
Freight consolidation changes the answer to seasonal demand planning at container scale, which is why small and large buyers reach different conclusions.
Build a buffer for promotional periods rather than reordering at the last minute.

Payment history is the single most reliable route to better terms, more than total annual volume.
