Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Currency movement over a Box 2 order cycle can erase the gain from a hard negotiation.
What follows is a practical view of currency and fx exposure for the Box 2, written for people who place repeat orders rather than one off buys.
Shops that receive a short briefing on currency and fx exposure convert noticeably better than shops that only receive stock.
Why currency and fx exposure matters on the Box 2
Quotations are normally held in a single currency for a stated validity window.
In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Box 2.
Longer production runs carry more exposure than short repeat orders.
