Storage and Shelf Life Guide for Air Bar Vibe 2
Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Storage conditions quietly determine how Vibe 2 performs months after production.
Between the factory gate and the retail shelf, storage and shelf life is where most of the value on the Vibe 2 is either created or lost.
Retail staff rarely ask about storage and shelf life directly, but their questions almost always lead back to it.
Why storage and shelf life matters on the Vibe 2
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 Vibe 2.
First in first out rotation prevents older batches ageing on the shelf.

Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (99 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (867 units) | Tier 2 | 7-12 days |
| Container (8186 units) | Tier 3 | 30-45 days |
