Finding an international manufacturer that can supply the correctly cast, formed or machined part is one thing. You also need to consider these key international concerns:

Currency exchanges
Foreign credit terms

Shipping container requirements
Sub-assembly needs
Repackaging regulations
Inventory management and warehousing

We have more than two decades of experience successfully sourcing products in international markets, including Taiwan, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, China and India. We’ve learned that the most successful projects begin with professional planning. We’ve tackled a wide range of international sourcing issues from simply establishing safety stock to owning and managing parts routed through many special processes and assembly steps. At World Class Industries, we put all the pieces together for you.

International Supply Challenge

All businesses understand the importance of consistent product supply, but it’s a critical issue for manufacturers that need to keep production lines at full capacity. A major farm implement manufacturer asked World Class Industries for help with a steady supply of one specific component—rear view mirrors.

World Class Solution

Our search took us all the way to Taiwan—to a manufacturer who could not only make the parts but also supply them at a lower cost. WCI ordered a three-month supply, coordinated all warehousing and managed the inventory. Now the farm implement manufacturer has a reliable, cost-effective supply of the mirrors it needed.
