Who buys & when
Demand shape for this sample line — advisory, not a market study.
Buyers
Downstream manufacturers, industrial users, and B2B distributors are the core demand — not walk-in retail for most sample lines.
Channels
B2B supply
Industrial distributors
Institutional buyers
Seasonality
Steady year-round
Industrial offtake is usually continuous; construction-linked products can track project cycles more than festivals.
Locality
State or wider
Buyers may sit across the state or region; freight and credit terms matter as much as the local pin code.
Demand watch-out: A single large buyer can dominate volume — demand risk is concentration, not only end-consumer taste.

Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Lead handling safety
