ATTENTION Agency Purchasing Dept.:
When buying large quantities (20 plus cases, full pallets or trailer loads) This product is sold on a first-come, first-sold basis. Emergency food and water are packaged and boxed, on a production schedule year-round. The manufacturer can only make a set amount of product each day. For instance, the process to make emergency water takes hours and requires the right mix of special packaging materials and quality control to ensure a long-lasting, high-quality product.
There is no stockpile available at the factory to supply tons of finished product the day of your major disaster. They can't just put on another shift to produce more because now an agency wants to buy it. You and your agency must budget and plan (and pre-pay) for any large order before your disaster.
(The above answer is not meant to be rude, it is based on years last-minute requests by government agencies and corporations that believe that these products can be bought on a phone call and a Purchase Order)
