IBC Asia sourcing and partner trip
IBC’s October sourcing and market-development trip includes Japan, South Korea, China and Indonesia.

Finding a factory is easy. Finding the right manufacturing partner is harder.

A strong sourcing decision depends on far more than a promising sample or the lowest unit price. Capability, quality systems, compliance, capacity, tooling, communication, delivery and long-term commercial suitability all influence the real outcome.

IBC brings more than 30 years of music-industry experience to the process, helping businesses connect product decisions with the customer, market and route to market the product must ultimately serve.

Topics we can discuss at Music China

  • OEM and private-label product opportunities
  • Supplier identification and capability assessment
  • Quotation, tooling and landed-cost comparison
  • Sample development, specifications and change control
  • Factory validation and quality systems
  • International distribution and routes to market
  • UK, European and wider international market development
