Services:
Product sourcing
Product sourcing is finding suitable manufacturers and products in Vietnam for your business. I can search for suppliers based on your product, specifications, quality requirements, and target price. The process includes supplier verification, quotations, samples, negotiations, and support with production and quality control.
Product development
Product development is the process of turning an idea into a product ready for manufacturing. You can start with a concept, drawing, sample, or existing product. Vietnamese manufacturers can help develop the design, materials, technical details, prototypes, and samples before moving to full production.
OEM manufacturing
OEM means producing a product according to your exact design, specifications, materials, and requirements. You provide the product details, while a qualified Vietnam manufacturer handles production. OEM manufacturing is suitable for companies that already have a product design and need reliable factory production.
ODM manufacturing
ODM means choosing an existing product from a Vietnam manufacturer and adapting it for your business. You do not need to design or invent the product from scratch. The manufacturer can modify materials, features, colors, packaging, and branding before producing it under your brand.
White label manufacturing
White label allows you to sell an existing product made by a Vietnamese manufacturer under your own brand. The product is usually ready for production, with limited changes to its design or specifications. You can add your logo, branding, labels, and packaging, making it your own branded product.
Private label manufacturing
Private label means having a product made for your brand with more customization than white label. You can choose or modify the product, materials, features, colors, packaging, and branding. A Vietnam manufacturer produces the finished product according to your requirements, giving your brand a more unique product.
Contract manufacturing
Contract manufacturing is hiring a Vietnam manufacturer to produce your products according to an agreed specification and production plan. You provide the requirements, while the factory handles manufacturing. It can cover simple or complex products, from individual components to complete finished products for your business.
FAQ
Vietnam offers a wide range of manufacturing services, including product sourcing, product development, OEM, ODM, contract manufacturing, white label, and private label production. The right service depends on whether you already have a product design, want to modify an existing product, or need help developing a product.
With OEM manufacturing, you provide the product design, specifications, materials, or other requirements and the factory produces the product accordingly. With ODM manufacturing, you can start with an existing factory product and customize it for your business without developing the product completely from scratch.
White label usually means putting your branding and packaging on an existing product with limited changes. Private label allows more customization, including materials, features, colors, packaging, and product specifications. Both can be manufactured under your own brand in Vietnam.
A Vietnam sourcing agent can help identify manufacturers that match your product, quantity, quality requirements, target price, and export needs. The process can include supplier research, factory verification, quotation comparison, sample coordination, and production follow-up.
