Browse KeHE codes by category
Slotting & placement fee deductions
Slotting and placement codes charge for securing distribution and program placement, usually at launch. Agreed placement fees are contractual; charges for the wrong number of items or locations, duplicates, and fees on items you didn't authorize are recoverable when reconciled to your launch agreement.
Scan & billback deductions
Scan and billback codes pass promotional scans and retailer deals through on your KeHE remittance — often retailer- or market-specific. Deals you authorized are valid; scans outside your deal dates, at the wrong rate, duplicated, or for the wrong items are recoverable when matched to the deal.
Reclamation & unsaleables deductions
Reclamation and unsaleables codes charge for damaged, expired or unsaleable product, frequently under retailer-specific reclamation programs. Genuine unsaleables are typically valid; duplicates, quantities above what you shipped, and charges on product in valid condition are recoverable.
