Phone accessory shop in Kenya

Sell a tightly stocked range of phone cases, cables and screen protectors with exact compatibility.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional retail batch ACC-103 sells six standard iPhone 13 case-and-cable kits. Each contains one correctly fitted case and one traceable USB-A-to-Lightning cable; chargers are excluded. Output is SKU/fit record, supplier invoice and buyer receipt with clear return terms. No cable is described as Apple/MFi-certified without substantiation.

Who is the first customer?
