In export orders, many issues become expensive when they are discovered after production is complete. Sample approval and pre-production control are therefore among the most important safety steps in sourcing.
What does a sample confirm?
A sample confirms whether size, material quality, color, surface, function, packaging and label details match expectations. The approved sample should be kept as a reference when possible.
Pre-production control points
- Technical drawing or specification review
- Material and color approval
- Packaging and label check
- Lead time and capacity confirmation
- Sharing inspection criteria with the manufacturer
FAHAN follows sample and pre-production control steps to reduce expectation gaps between buyer and manufacturer and prevent surprises before shipment.
