@EVchem sent them numerous emails with no single reply. I then called them a week ago and they said they don’t offer small pack sizes. Not sure why they would false advertise.
Thanks @sven . I’ve asked René and he says they are busy with agreements to appoint a Repacker. This should be finalized by end of the year. While I wait for that process to be finalized, I need elsewhere to buy small quantities
