Effective Demand Clause Samples

The Effective Demand clause defines the minimum quantity of goods or services that a buyer is obligated to purchase from a seller within a specified period. In practice, this clause sets a baseline order volume, which may be determined by historical usage, forecasts, or mutual agreement, and can trigger certain pricing or supply commitments once met. Its core function is to provide predictability and security for both parties by ensuring a guaranteed level of business, thereby helping suppliers plan production and manage inventory while giving buyers assurance of supply.
