The Mint 3 has settled into a stable position in the range, which makes storage and shelf life the natural next question for distributors.
A written internal standard for storage and shelf life makes onboarding new account managers far quicker and reduces avoidable errors.
Why storage and shelf life matters on the Mint 3
Cool, dry and dark storage preserves flavour stability over the stated shelf life.
In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Mint 3.
First in first out rotation prevents older batches ageing on the shelf.
