PRODUCTION

We provide a road-map with a project timeline to meet manufacturers lead time and meeting each production milestone. We stress the importance of our independent quality control inspections for bulk production. From first line inspections to final inspections and identifying any problems along the way.

INDEPENDENT QUALITY CONTROL INSPECTIONS

The risk of the quality issue is always high when outsourcing production in other countries. Quality control is an essential part of the importing process. Once the goods are shipped, there is no turning back as there is no simple economical viable way of either requesting a refund or returning goods.

We provide an independent quality control inspection for your goods. Our inspection team on the ground are highly skilled and trained Quality Control Inspectors and follow a professional quality control procedure. The inspection will be part of our overall sourcing/development and production work or we can work with your own suppliers/manufacturers as an additional service.

You will be provided with a full quality control inspection for a mid-line inspection, final inspection, detailed professional report and images to show your product, packaging – inner and outer, labelling and video drop tests. Any problems or changes will be identified well before final inspection.
