Quote & sampling

We research manufacturers from our network, obtain prices and send a quote including landed cost and lead time. Every order starts with a pre-production sample directly from the factory. You approve material, workmanship and fit before a single piece goes into production.

Confirmation & payment

When the contract is signed, 60% of the order value is due; the remaining 40% follows once the shipping document is issued. Production starts only after your written approval. Our team monitors progress on site and pulls production samples for your and our ongoing control.

Pre-shipment inspection

Before loading, our own team in China checks the finished goods on site at the producer. Deviations are caught before the goods are shipped. In case of justified deviations we take responsibility and, where appropriate, have the goods reproduced.
