由Dylan · Blankenship

私有labaling的选择的正确的制造商“私人标签产品或服务典型地是一家公司制造或提供的那些为提议在另一家公司的品牌之下”。 - Wikipedia。 这是比赛的名字为中国,并且至于大部分,您这里在美国买的产品没有由名字在标签真正地制造。 In some instances most of the big box or clothing stores you frequent have an inventory almost entirely made up of their own products under their own brand or multiple unaffiliated brands. This is not just a game for the big boys, this can be accomplished with the same everyday products under your own company’s label. Welcome to the club, we are about to pull back the curtain to reveal what you need to know in developing your own private labeled line of products.

Take notice that every manufacturer has its own guidelines, requirements and procedures for producing a private label product. Not all manufacturers offer this service or have the capability to laser-etch/carve logos etc. The first step is to source the product you like and then follow-up with the manufacturer opening a dialog about private label opportunities.

4 Reasons Sourcing from China will be More Expensive in 2008

January 21st, 2008 by China Business Success Stories

By Marshall Taplits

Sourcing from China in 2008China has been trying to stem an ever growing trade surplus, manage domestic inflation, move development from the coastal areas to the inland areas and decrease its dependence on heavily polluting industries.

Quality sourcing in ChinaSourcing to China can be cost effective, but if something goes wrong, it could have a dramatic effect on your bottom line — and negatively impact customer opinion of your business. Can we trust domestic producers and distributors to control quality with fervor equal to their pursuit of low wages? Cheap labor is the easy part; the quality thing is a much tougher nut to crack.A product recall is a very visible and expensive sign of a serious quality problem. The life threatening potential of some problems long ago led American government and producers to develop recall and reverse distribution systems.

For the most part we’ve become good at figuring out which product is at risk, where it went, and executing the recall process with limited harm to life.
