OEM & ODM

Turn a product idea into a branded range

Whether you arrive with engineering drawings or a rough sketch, we match the right factory and manage development through to a repeatable production standard.

Workers assembling branded products on an OEM production line in China

OEM builds your design. ODM adapts theirs.

OEM means the factory manufactures to your specification — your design, your tolerances, your intellectual property. It gives the most control and needs the most preparation.

ODM means starting from a product the factory already makes well and adapting it: materials, colours, functions, packaging and branding. It is faster, cheaper and lower risk for a first launch.

We will tell you honestly which route suits your budget and timeline, then manage samples, tooling, compliance and the first production run.

What is included

How this service works in practice

  • Factory matching

    Shortlisting manufacturers with genuine capability in your specific process, not just your category.

  • Sample development

    Structured sample rounds with written feedback so each version moves measurably closer.

  • Tooling & moulds

    Tooling cost negotiation, ownership terms and storage agreed in writing up front.

  • Private label

    Logo application, colourways, finishes and branded accessories across the range.

  • Packaging design

    Retail boxes, inserts, manuals, barcodes and export cartons produced locally.

  • Compliance testing

    Coordination of destination-market testing and certification before mass production.

Checklist

What we agree before production starts

  • A written technical specification signed by both sides
  • An approved golden sample retained by the factory and by us
  • Tooling ownership, cost amortisation and storage terms
  • Intellectual property and non-disclosure agreements in Chinese and English
  • Inspection criteria and the AQL levels that define acceptance
  • Packaging artwork approval and barcode verification
  • Payment milestones tied to inspection outcomes, not to calendar dates
