Destination brief · whole & chunk
Goods arrive before they are sold. Stock sits in bond and is drawn down, which makes shelf life a commercial variable rather than a label. This page focuses on piece form, local processing, packing, and lot acceptance for whole/chunk material.
Importers in Panama can use whole or chunk material for different reasons, but both require a written piece definition so buyer and supplier judge the same lot on the same basis.
Choose whole or chunk for Panama when the buyer wants to inspect larger pieces and control milling, extraction preparation, or final cutting locally. Choose slices when a defined arrival-ready cut removes meaningful work at destination.
