The lead time of the orders before Chinese New Year Holiday.


Chinese New year holiday is almost coming, most chinese makeup brush factories have arranged everything properly and have been ready for the holiday. We know that we will still receive new orders before holiday to customize makeup brushes or order the frequent items, however, no matter what is the situation, the lead time of the orders from now to Chinese New Year holiday will be about 60 days.

The first reason is that our material supplier will have their own production arrangement. Now, the material suppliers are preparing the production of the orders 30 days before. Even if we place the orders to them now, they can not start the production due to the the rush orders. Therefore, if they get our orders before holiday, they can only do related preparation to start production after the holiday.

Secondly, we have shown our holiday arrangement in previous post, we will close our factory during the 15-20 days. Plus the period before holiday, it may delay about 30 days. And our normal production cycle is about 30 days. That is why the lead time will be about 60 days.

However, if customers would like to place orders after our holiday, the lead time will be about 35 -40 days. Therefore, for better cash flow for customers, in fact it is better to place orders and pay prepayment after our holiday even if orders before holiday can help with our production preparation. Whatever, it depends on customers’ preference to order before or after our holiday, our responsibility is to tell customers all truth and do all efforts to support customers.

Place orders before Chinese New Year

Christmas is coming, New Year is coming, and people all around the country are ready to celebrate the holiday. Before, after the New Year holiday, it will leave about a month for Chinese New Year; while this year, Chinese New Year is also not far. Jan 23th is Chinese New Year day, and most companies will close from Jan 20th.
 
Our factory will be closed from Jan 16th to 31st. It will certainly affect the brush production and shipment. Therefore, if customers have any urgent demand, it will be the best to place the order before the Chinese New Year, so that we can order the raw material before the holiday and then start production once our back to the factory. If material is ready, we may just need about 15 days to finish the production.
 
Although some of our staff will be available by email during the holiday, our workers are not on duty, so can not do any production. Even if we get the orders during the Chinese New Year holiday, we will not be able to order the material as our material supplier is also enjoying the holiday. Therefore, placing orders during the holiday is totally the same after the holiday; the delivery time will not have difference.
 
Without the order, we will have to order the raw material after the holiday, and the material production lead time is also about 25 days, in plus of the production time, the whole lead time will be more than 40 days. So if customers place the order after the holiday, the delivery time will be in March or later.
 
But if we get the order before our holiday, we can order the material firstly, as our material supplier will not close their factory so early. Generally, they will not close the factory until Jan 22nd. Most Chinese makeup brush manufacturers will close the factory earlier than other factories if without urgent orders.
 
If you already have any confirmed demand on makeup brushes, please kindly help to place the order before our holiday.
