on demand merchandise

on demand merchandise refers to products that are created only when an order is placed, rather than being produced in bulk and held in inventory. This model is closely related to print on demand (POD) but can encompass a wider range of product types beyond just printed items. “On demand merchandise” allows businesses to offer a variety of products without the risk of unsold stock. When a customer orders “on demand merchandise,” a third-party supplier produces the item and ships it directly to the customer.
