Cylinder 05 / Fulfillment & Tour Resupply
Good merch. In the right place.
A merch run earns its keep when it reaches the table, the shop or the fan. We work through stock, packing, shipping and resupply around the dates and destinations that matter to you.
Work out your stock and shippingA record release, a merch run, retail or promotional shipments, and artists planning stock around shows.
IN PRACTICE / OUR OWN LABEL
The Family. From the release to the receiving end.
For The Family, BBCR coordinated records and promotional copies going to shops and media, maintained shipment tracking and worked through cross-border delivery issues. That work connected the release campaign to the physical records people needed in hand.

BEFORE WE GET ROLLING
Good questions.
Can you send merch to a show or someone on the road?
We can plan for a confirmed receiving contact and destination. Send the show calendar, quantities and delivery details so we can check the practical options.
Can you handle storage and repeat orders?
Tell us the products, space needed and expected order volume. We confirm capacity, handling and support before taking the work on.
How are shipping and resupply costs worked out?
The quote separates the agreed service work from production, packaging and freight. Reorders and delivery changes are agreed before the related commitments are made.
One job, consulting, or the full package with consulting. Tell us what you need and we’ll work through the scope, timing and next steps with you. A rough plan is enough.
