Every order moves through the same five gates so you always know where things stand. Typical end-to-end timeline is 8–14 weeks depending on whether goods are stock or made-to-order.
Every engagement runs the same five gates. You focus on selling. We own the supplier work, the production, the inspection, and the freight.
Specs, sketches, samples, references — we confirm scope in writing.
2–3 best-fit factories audited on-site, benchmarked on price.
You approve sample. We negotiate, draft PI, handle deposit.
PPI · DUPRO · PSI inspections. Defects fixed before shipping.
EXW · FOB · DDP — freight, customs, final-mile coordinated.
You tell us what you need. We confirm what we heard, in writing, before doing anything else. No assumptions, no scope creep.
We narrow our network of 500+ factories down to 2–3 best-fit candidates, audit them on-site, and request apples-to-apples quotes.
Capability, capacity, certifications, and historical defect rates run against your spec to produce 8–12 candidates.
Our team walks the production floor. Photos, video, capability profile — never a forwarded report.
RFQ packets sent to qualified factories with identical specifications so quotes are directly comparable.
A shortlist of 2–3 factories with side-by-side numbers and a written recommendation. You decide.
Where physical samples matter, the shortlisted factories produce and ship counter-samples for your hands-on review.
You approve a factory and sample. We negotiate final terms, draft the PO and PI, and manage the deposit. IP-protection agreements are signed before any IP changes hands.
Factory produces. We monitor. Three QC checkpoints — pre-production, in-line, and pre-shipment — catch defects when they're cheap to fix.
Raw materials and components verified before assembly begins. Catches material substitution and incoming-quality issues at zero rework cost.
In-line audit at 20–60% completion. Defect trends caught early; corrective action implemented before the whole run is finished.
ISO 2859 / AQL 2.5 sampling on the packed-out goods. Photo and video evidence. Signed PSI report <24h. No release without your sign-off.
Production photo/video updates every Friday. No more chasing factories in messaging apps.
Factory receives the remaining payment only after PSI sign-off. Defect remediation is negotiated with the factory before any release.
Goods leave the factory. We book freight, file export docs, clear U.S. customs, pay duties, and deliver to your warehouse, FBA, or 3PL.
Sourcing fails when ownership is fuzzy. Here's the boundary, gate by gate.
| Gate | You own | Verity United owns |
|---|---|---|
| 01 · Brief | Product spec, target price, timeline | Scope confirmation, fee quote, AM intro |
| 02 · Match & Vet | Shortlist review & selection | Long-list, on-site audits, RFQ, comparison report |
| 03 · Approve & Order | Sample approval, PI sign-off, deposit | Final negotiation, PO/PI drafting, NDA & IP, deposit flow |
| 04 · Production & QC | Weekly review, PSI sign-off | PPI · DUPRO · PSI, defect remediation, balance payment |
| 05 · Ship & Deliver | Accept delivery | Freight, export, customs, duty, final-mile, documents |
Sample timeline for a mid-size custom order, 5,000 units, sea freight DDP. Stock items are 4–6 weeks shorter; OEM/custom adds 2–4 weeks for tooling.
Every Friday during production, your account manager sends a status email. No more chasing factories in messaging apps.
