Q A Distributor Asks: I just got an order in, and on every one of the whistles, the supplier’s website is screenprinted on it. I haven’t had this happen before, except on samples. Usually, there’s just an item number. What do y’all think about this? Any product that is classified as a child’s product or anything that can be seen as a child’s product is required to have tracking numbers. It would be a good idea to familiarize yourself with the rules regarding selling products for children. Even if your client is not giving the product out to children, if it is something that looks like a toy, i.e. your whistle, the labeling regulations apply. SUSAN HYSEN Client Success Executive Summit Group, LLC Silver Spring, Maryland PPAI 364377, D10 I think it’s part of child safety compliance. The numbers below it are probably the manufacturing lot. They’re required to test the materials of each lot and provide tracking info on certain items. ALLISON STIVERS Owner Stellar Customs LLC Houston, Texas PPAI 762024, D1 Do You Have An Answer? A Distributor Asks: How would you react to a notice from a client that they acquired a product sourcing account and will do their purchasing internally?
