There are many unknown "dark curtain" behind the sportswear OEM, and these truths often shock the brand side who first contact the OEM.
1、Many foundersdo not complete production independently, but subcontract orders to other small factories. This "subcontracting model" makes it impossible for brands to accurately track the production process, or even to know who the real producers are. Once there is a quality problem or delivery delay, it is difficult for the brand to find the responsible party for accountability.
2、Foundries usually in order to reduce costs, will choose to use low-cost materials or reduce the necessary production links, resulting in a serious decline in the quality of finished products.If the brand does not have sufficient quality supervision means, it is often found after the product is listed, it is already too late.
3、The labor force problem is also a major hidden danger in the foundry industry. In order to save costs, some foundries will use irregular labor and even have poor working conditions. This can not only lead to legal risks, but also cause irreparable negative effects on the brand's social image.
In short, the truth behind sportswear OEM is far more complex than imagined, and brands must have a deep understanding of the entire production chain in order to avoid stepping on the mine in cooperation.
