What is the term for the last day a product may be sold?

The correct term for the last day a product may be sold is known as the pull date. This date is particularly relevant for retailers and vendors, indicating the last day the product should be displayed for sale. After this date, the retailer is encouraged to remove the item from the sales floor to ensure that customers are not sold expired or potentially unsatisfactory products.

In contrast, the expiration date refers specifically to the date after which a product is no longer guaranteed to maintain its intended quality or safety for consumption. The use by date provides guidelines on when a product should be consumed for optimal freshness and quality, while the manufacture date identifies when the product was produced, which is crucial but does not signify the point after which a product should no longer be sold. Therefore, in the context of retail practices, the pull date uniquely identifies the last recommended sale date for a product.
