What is one of the key differences between a local manufacturer
and a manufacturer who sells nationally or even internationally?
The ability to compete with a competitor that is across the
country from you but only miles away from your customer, is
crucial to becoming a global player. When companies can ship
product across the country without significantly adding to
the cost of their product, distance limitations disappear.
The question is, how to accomplish this? Companies are finding
ways to design their products to be both high in quality,
yet able to be assembled by the final customer.
Products that once cost several hundred dollars each to package
and ship, are now being re-designed to make them RTA (Ready
To Assemble). These RTA products not only reduce the cost related
to assembly, packaging, and freight, they also eliminate the
associated in-house mfg time and cost. Along with the substantial
cost savings to the customer, the customer benefits by being
able to take home the product the same day. Furthermore, the
customer doesn't have to miss time from work by waiting for
the product to be delivered. These features benefit every one
involved the Manufacturer, the retailer, and most importantly
the final customer.
Please call your sales rep to see how we can help you become
a global player.
