Why net weight is not usable yield
A 1 kg pack normally contains sliced ginger plus brine. Two packs with the same net weight can provide different amounts of usable ginger, so buyers should request the declared drained weight or verify yield through an agreed test.
Restaurant buyers can use drained yield to calculate portion cost more accurately.
Use one drainage method
Results change with screen size, drainage time and handling. Define one repeatable method and apply it to every supplier sample.
Record the method with the approved sample so receiving checks remain comparable after production begins.
Match packaging to the sales channel
Foodservice packs should be evaluated for opening, resealing, cold-storage footprint and kitchen handling. Retail programs also require shelf presentation, barcode placement and market-language artwork.
Bulk, can, drum and private-label formats may use different minimums and lead times.
Build a complete logistics comparison
Request units per carton, gross and net carton weight, dimensions, pallet pattern and container loading data. These values reveal whether a lower product price creates a higher landed cost.
Keep the confirmed packing configuration in the quotation, specification and purchase order.
