Our societies are an ISO 9001-2000 certified international buying house.
Our teamwork is divided into 3 parts: Merchandising, Quality Assurance and Logistics. Tuning ourselves to the buyers way of working gives us the advantage of shorter deliveries and tighter control over quality. We undertake 3 differing roles with our customers:
- Production office: acting as a defacto liaison office.
- Buying office/agent: representing, buying and controlling the processes on behalf of our customers.
- Supplier, where few customers prefer a 1 stop shop (purchase orders, LC’s opened on FWPL and all responsibility taken care of)
