Working with Mr. N, a U.S. wholesale buyer known for his aggressive pricing tactics, was never easy.
Every negotiation felt like a sparring match. He fought for pennies, scrutinized every line item, and pushed our margins to the edge.

But when his latest order of comfortable women’s shoes was finally approved, we were relieved—until we spotted one troubling detail in the packaging specs:

“Use triple-wall corrugated cartons.”

This instruction directly contradicted his earlier insistence on maximum transport durability—especially for items as delicate and high-quality as comfortable women’s shoes. Our export standard is a five-layer carton, engineered to protect through stacking, pressure, and vibration.

“Go with the triple-wall. It saves cost,” someone said.

But our QC lead pushed back:

“Mr. N is meticulous about product quality. If these get damaged, he’ll lose faith. And these aren’t just any shoes—they’re comfortable women’s shoes made to carry his premium brand image.”
