Quick Ship
48-Hour Manufacturing Time
Quick Ship Program Statement
Version: 3.0 . Published: 01/01/1987 . Last Modified: 11/01/2024
This Quick Ship Program Statement is provided to you by VIA, Inc. (hereafter referred to as “Via Seating”, “we”, “us”, “our”).
The majority of Via Seating products use in-stock textiles. A certain amount of these products are able to be built within a 48 hour period (2 business days). This is identified as a “48 Hour Manufacturing Schedule”. These production capability schedules are outlined below per chair series, model & complex options. These schedules do not include the business day to process a completed order, the business day to pack the order & transit time once the order has shipped out.
As we understand not all products are needed on quick ship, your ship or delivery date must be clearly included on your PO.
