AODO

Distributor Joining Policy

Introduction
Thank you for your interest in partnering with AODO and becoming our authorized distributor across Indonesia. This document sets out all standard cooperation rules, entry requirements, order regulations, market protection, brand support and after-sales terms for local wholesale distributors, supermarket suppliers and channel partners. All formal cooperation will be governed by a signed official distribution agreement, and this page serves as a pre-cooperation reference guideline.

  1. Distributor Eligibility Requirements
To qualify as an official AODO distributor, applicants must meet all the criteria below:
  1. Hold valid Indonesian business documents including NIB business license and NPWP tax ID, legally engaged in food wholesale, modern supermarket, minimarket or offline snack channel operation.
  2. Possess independent food storage space and stable local delivery capacity, or own mature downstream retail networks covering specific provinces/cities in Indonesia.
  3. Fully recognize AODO brand positioning, product value and unified market pricing regulations, and promise not to disrupt local market order.
  4. Have stable capital flow to support bulk full-truck procurement as required by our minimum order standard.

  5. Minimum Order Quantity & Order Regulations
  6. Minimum initial order: Full truck load (approximately 630 cartons). Repeated restock orders also follow full-truck MOQ standards.
  7. All goods operate on a pre-order production model. Standard production lead time ranges from 7 to 14 working days after deposit confirmation.
  8. Payment terms: 30% deposit upon PO confirmation; full outstanding balance must be settled before goods dispatch.
  9. Deliveries depart from AODO designated warehouses in Indonesia. All logistics transportation fees shall be borne by the distributor.
  10. Orders can only be modified or canceled within 48 hours after deposit payment; no cancellation is accepted once production is launched.

  11. Pricing & Confidentiality Rules
  12. All distributor wholesale price lists are strictly confidential commercial information. Distributors are prohibited from sharing internal wholesale prices with end consumers, retail shop owners or any third-party competitors.
  13. Unified minimum resale price standards are formulated for all SKUs. Distributors are not allowed to sell products below the regulated minimum retail price to avoid vicious market competition.
  14. AODO reserves the right to adjust wholesale prices due to raw material, labor or logistics cost fluctuations. We will issue formal written price adjustment notices 30 days in advance to all active distributors.

  15. Regional Exclusive Market Protection
  16. Authorized exclusive regional distributors obtain exclusive sales rights within their contracted city or provincial territory.
  17. Cross-regional goods diversion, transboundary sales or reselling to distributors in other assigned zones is strictly forbidden without prior written approval from AODO management.
  18. If unauthorized cross-region selling is verified, AODO reserves the right to issue warnings, adjust annual sales rebates or revoke regional exclusive authorization permanently.

  19. Product Sample Application Terms
  20. Potential distributors may submit sample requests to test product taste, packaging and market suitability in local channels. All sample fees and delivery freight charges are fully covered by the applicant.
  21. Once the applicant completes their first full-truck bulk order, previously paid sample fees can be deducted from the total order payment as a cooperation incentive.
  22. Sample stock is limited; each enterprise applicant can only apply for one complete sample set of all product lines.

  23. Brand Support & Distributor Benefits
  24. Free supply of complete official materials: product specification sheets, high-definition product photos, product ingredient data, MUI halal certification documents and marketing posters for offline stores.
  25. Timely release of new product launch information and free product knowledge training for distributor sales teams.
  26. Qualified high-volume distributors who reach annual sales targets can negotiate joint offline promotion co-funding for supermarket exhibitions and market activities.
  27. After signing the formal distribution contract, AODO will issue an official authorized distributor certificate for offline store display and channel certification.
  28. Annual tiered sales rebates will be settled quarterly based on actual cumulative order volume.

  29. Product Quality, Storage & After-Sales Policy
  30. Distributors must inspect carton quantity and outer packaging integrity immediately upon receiving goods. Any breakage or damage caused during transit should be claimed directly with the logistics provider by the distributor.
  31. All AODO bread products have a 3-month shelf life and require cool, dry room-temperature storage away from direct sunlight. Distributors must follow storage guidelines strictly to prevent early expiration.
  32. Fully qualified finished goods without production defects cannot be returned or exchanged. Products with confirmed production quality issues will be replaced or compensated according to clauses in the formal cooperation contract.
  33. Distributors are responsible for reasonable inventory rotation to ensure all products are sold before expiry dates. AODO does not accept returns of expired inventory under normal sales circumstances.

  34. Cooperation Termination Conditions
AODO reserves the right to terminate distributor authorization with written advance notice if partners violate any of the following rules:
  1. Intentionally leak confidential wholesale prices or conduct large-scale cross-region goods diversion.
  2. Continuously fail to reach agreed quarterly or annual sales volume targets without reasonable explanations.
  3. Sell products below regulated minimum resale prices and disrupt the local market sales system.
  4. Use improper operation methods to damage AODO brand reputation and public image in Indonesia.

  5. How to Apply for Distributor Cooperation
