Repeat customers are now the ones asking for more capacity: management describes buyers it has already served pressing f
The model's full reasoning — Q4 2016 call → NOWe need to answer YES or NO based on the transcript. The question asks: does management describe that buyers who have already bought from the company and seen the result are now asking for more than the company can currently supply, and is management working to enlarge the company in response? The essence is: proven, repeat counterparties demand more than current capacity, and company is building to meet them. Scan the transcript for any such description. The transcript discusses various challenges, growth, investments, etc. Look for mentions of capacity constraints, customers asking for more, etc. Irene mentions: "we're building an industry-leading eCommerce snacks business, targeting at least $1 billion in revenue by 2020." That's about eCommerce growth, but not about existing customers asking for more than supply. Brian mentions: "we've successfully integrated the Kinh Do snacks business... enabling high single-digit growth in our Vietnam business." Not about capacity constraints. There is mention of "Enjoy Life Foods business... we've expanded capacity and flexibility, with the opening of a new U.S.-based manufacturing facility in Indiana. This increased capacity enabled our recent expansion into the UK and Australia." That suggests they expanded capacity to enable expansion, but not that existing customers are asking for more than they can supply. No mention of customers demanding more than supply. The transcript focuses on top line growth, margin expansion, cost cutting, etc. There is no discussion of demand exceeding supply. The question is very specific. The answer is NO. Thus, answer NO.

Existing customers who previously bought fixed-tilt racking (proven repeat counterparties) have switched to the new 1P TerraTrak tracker technology, creating rapid uptake that exceeds current supply capability.
