Inventory Dispatch Sheet

Please be informed that our rider will request an inventory dispatched sheet upon collection of your shipment. This requirement serves two essential purposes:

πŸ“Ž
  • Ensuring Item Accountability: The inventory dispatched sheet helps us maintain accountability during transit, ensuring that no items go missing or are misplaced along the way.
  • Record-Keeping: By documenting your inventory at the point of dispatch, we maintain accurate records of your valuable merchandise throughout its journey.

Attached below is the correct format for inventory dispatch sheet.

Use this format in excel sheet

🚩 Instruction for VSL Sellers: If you’re using the VSL facility and the stock weight is 2kg or less, please use flyers. If the stock weight exceeds 2kg, pack your stock in cartons with proper packaging and barcodes.
