Swedish term or phrase: planköp
Instead of ordering when the store wants to place the order, they place a standing order.

In fact, "Standing Order" may be the best term for Planköp, but I am not sure. So I ask for input.

Here is a sample sentence: "Med Planköp, varor i butik när säsongen börjar "

buy/buying plan or schedule


Explanation:
Here are some ideas ... perhaps worth more than one answer. If you want a place to start try 'seasonal buying plan' and move to seasonal buy plan". Seems the context (type of shop or products) is important. Get less hits for schedule, but its out there too.

btw- standing order = stående order; and when I was working with these they had nothing to do with seasons. But that was in a relatively few contexts and a long time ago.
