Verify who you are working with
Review business registration information, contact channels, factory details and relevant history. Documentation alone is not a guarantee; use independent checks where the risk justifies them.
Assess production suitability
Ask about equipment, production capacity, minimum order quantities, typical lead times and previous experience with comparable products.
Compare like for like
Obtain quotations with consistent specifications, inclusions, delivery terms and currency. Lower unit price can be misleading if tooling, inspection, packaging or freight are excluded.
Agree verification milestones
Discuss samples, pre-production approvals, inspection arrangements, payment stages and escalation contacts before finalising the purchase.
