Seasonality interacts with seasonal demand planning more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Why seasonal demand planning matters on the Passage 4
Order production slots well ahead of the peak to avoid factory congestion.
Keeping a short internal note on seasonal demand planning for each SKU pays for itself the first time a dispute arises over the Passage 4.
Build a buffer for promotional periods rather than reordering at the last minute.

Frequently asked questions
When should Passage 4 peak season stock be ordered?
