Our focus is to successfully manage
the full product cycle. From sourcing,
procurement, forwarding and
warehousing to customer delivery,
we are reliable and trustworthy.
Delivering on this promise, we have mapped out a strategic
supply chain. It demands the utmost level of co-ordination
between our company, customers and suppliers.
We hold each of our suppliers to the highest standards and do
everything in our power to build solid supplier relationships.
Our quality assurance is based on a stringent supplier
selection process. We evaluate such attributes as track record,
capacity, corporate values, marketing support, pricing and
performance.
What’s more, we do not switch suppliers lightly. Not without
proper due consideration and not purely based on price.
Where possible, at least one alternative import and local
supplier is kept for each product category, ensuring a timeous
and continuous supply chain.
Assessing suppliers’ performances is ongoing: confirming
orders, monitoring lead times and carrying out quality control
checks. We look at ways to improve our own business from
inbound logistics and warehousing to distribution networks –
all to serve our customers better.
Our products are backed by a comprehensive, accessible
network of support services. We ensure warranty claims and
repairs are dealt with in the most efficient way.
