»Should
my products be manufactured in US, Asia or Mexico?
Asia - Our Asian factories are the best choice for obtaining
the most competitive pricing for the production of quality turnkey products
requiring high volumes. Our operations involve the global acquisition
of materials primarily from China & the Pacific Rim. Lead times
generally range from 6 to 8 weeks after receipt of order.
Mexico -
South of the border great for quick turnaround of items that are moderately
labor intensive or those utilizing materials of NAFTA origin (US, Canada
or Mexico). It is also an advantage for customers who wish to supply
their own materials and take advantage of the low assembly costs. Our
maquiladora manufacturing is a great way to support companies with ongoing
Just In Time deliveries.
USA - Due
to the aforementioned, the United States is at a disadvantage when it
comes to globally competitive labor rates. However, some customers insist
that their products be produced domestically primarily due to Country
of Origin marking requirements. Our US facility is an excellent choice
for short runs, prototyping and, screen-printing or embroidery of stock
items.
