BUYER FAQ
Questions to settle early.
Do startups need full ODM?
Usually not for the first launch unless a core requirement cannot be met by an available platform.
Can packaging create differentiation?
Yes. Product branding, packaging and insert experience can build a distinct offer without new tooling.
Can we request samples before a bulk order?
Yes. The applicable sample type, availability, cost and timing are confirmed for the selected model and customization scope.
