About This Opportunity
Southeast Asia's manufacturing corridor — Vietnam's Binh Duong province, Malaysia's Johor — has spent two decades supplying IKEA, West Elm, Article, and Made.com.

The infrastructure, craftsmanship, and export logistics are world-class and now accessible at MOQs that make sense at the early stage.

Process
How It Works
1
Design Brief to Approved Prototype
Submit references, sketches, CAD files, or mood boards. The ODM engineering team produces technical drawings, material specifications, and a costed BOM within 5 business days. A physical prototype follows — review joinery quality, finish consistency, structural load tolerance, and dimensional accuracy. Revision rounds until sign-off. Prototype cost ($200–$800 per piece) is credited against the production run.
2
Production, QC, and Compliance Documentation
Full production run begins post-approval. Third-party inspection is conducted at two stages — DUPRO (during production) and final random inspection before container loading. Compliance documentation is compiled in parallel: certificates of origin, FSC chain-of-custody records, CARB P2 test reports, phytosanitary certificates for all solid timber, and REACH declarations for EU-bound shipments.
3
Container Loading, Export, and Freight Coordination
The factory's export team manages container stuffing, packing lists, and booking with the nominated freight forwarder. Shipment departs FOB from Ho Chi Minh City or Port Klang. Transit to major ports — Los Angeles, Felixstowe, Port Klang, Jebel Ali — runs 18–32 days depending on routing. Import customs clearance, duties classification (HS code), and last-mile delivery to a 3PL are coordinated on arrival
