What the brief contains

A complete brief has eleven sections. The portal will not let a brief be submitted with required sections missing. The desk does not chase. If the brief is incomplete, it sits in draft until the supplier completes it.

Product identification

SKU, common name, scientific or technical name where applicable, category, sub-category, harmonised tariff code.

Specification

Dimensions, weight, materials, ingredients, grade, finish, packaging configuration. Anything a member or auditor would expect to see written down.

Origin

Country and region of production, the specific facility, certification chain-of-custody where relevant.

Certifications

Each certification with issuer, number and expiry. Lab reports attached as PDFs, not summarised.

Capacity and lead time

Available quantity at this brief date, peak monthly capacity, lead time from purchase order to ready-to-ship.

Pricing

Supplier ex-works price per unit, currency, validity window, MOQ and price breaks at each MOQ tier.

Logistics

Pallet configuration, units per carton, cartons per pallet, shipping weight, suitable incoterms.

Channel suitability

Where the goods are appropriate, retail, HORECA, distributor, direct member delivery. Honesty here saves a cycle later.

Margin model inputs

Estimated landed cost, channel sell-through assumptions, base case and conservative scenarios proposed by the supplier. The desk reviews and may adjust.

Sample plan

Number of samples available, despatch method, lab where applicable, sample retention agreement.

Risk disclosures

Anything the supplier wants the curation desk to consider: seasonality, weather sensitivity, supply concentration, regulatory risk in destination markets.

Sample handling

Samples are couriered to the operations desk in London or Singapore depending on origin. Treviya pays inbound courier on samples below 2 kilograms. Above that threshold, the supplier pays inbound and Treviya reimburses on cycle authorisation.

Each sample is logged into the operations register on receipt with photographs, weight verification and a tamper-evidence check on the packaging. We retain the sample for the duration of the supplier relationship. Where a member dispute arises, the retained sample is the reference.

For food, supplement and cosmetic categories, a portion of every sample batch is forwarded to an accredited lab for the testing standard appropriate to the product. Lab fees are itemised and either paid by the supplier as a precondition of brief progression, or absorbed into the cycle fee stack on supplier election.

What the desk does next

A complete brief enters the curation queue. The category specialist runs the brief through the six gates documented in the field note on the curation framework. The first three gates are passable from the brief alone. Gates four through six require sample, factory data and a proposed cycle window. A brief that clears all six gates is moved to authorisation, sized for member capacity and slotted into the cycle calendar.

A brief that fails a gate is returned with the gate number cited and the specific reason. Where the gap is fixable, the supplier can resubmit. Where the gap is structural, the brief is closed and a different category fit is suggested where one exists.

One brief.One cycle.

A complete brief is the difference between a six-week onboarding and a six-month one. Take the time.
