How can Transworld save my company money
through Asian sourcing? The total landed (delivered to your door) cost per unit
of your product or component part is typically lower than if the product was
manufactured domestically. Because if it isn't, you know it isn't worth doing.
Savings will vary by the types of product
being produced. In some industries, a 10% reduction in acquisition cost is a
huge savings. While in other industries, a 40% or greater savings is attainable.
Using your target cost information, Transworld works diligently to select the
right factory that meets or beats your target cost while meeting your quality
requirements.
And at Transworld, we understand that not
all products should be sourced internationally. We can help guide you through
the process of determining what products or component parts can be manufactured
overseas to garner the most cost savings.
Transworld simplifies the international sourcing process by eliminating communication barriers. Our U.S.-based Project Managers act as your liaison shepherding your project through every critical process-from product development, sourcing, manufacturing, quality inspection, customs clearance to delivery-providing you with a single point of contact.
