FTC SERVICES & ADDED VALUES
Unlike a catalogue reseller or a simple intermediary, FTC accompanies clients through every phases of the supply chain: from product development and regulatory compliance all the way through to final delivery at destination. Clients do not need to coordinate factories, absorb currency volatility, or manage logistics complexity. FTC handles all of it.
LOGISTICS & FINANCIAL PROTECTION
FTC manages the complete logistics chain from factory to final destination, with client choice of Incoterm (FOB, CIF, DAP or DDP). Orders from up to 10 factories can be consolidated into a single container, maximizing fill rates and reducing per-unit freight costs, with pre-positioned buffer stock in China supporting demand flexibility. Clients pay in their local currency at a guaranteed fixed exchange rate for the duration of the contract.
FACTORY NETWORK, QUALITY & COMPLIANCE
FTC gives clients access to a curated network of 20+ reliable manufacturers, selected from an audited pool of 150+ factories. Every container is subject to 100% quality control before shipment, ensuring product conformity on every order. All required food grade certifications, test reports, ESG and CSR compliance are fully managed by FTC.
BRAND OWNERSHIP & OEM
FTC creates fully owned branded product lines tailored to each client's identity, enabling real market differentiation and brand ownership. Every proprietary design is registered and protected as the client's intellectual property. Through FTC's OEM structure, clients own their mould and benefit from progressive reimbursement on both samples and tooling, significantly reducing upfront investment.
COMPLETE STUDIES & QUOTATIONS
FTC conducts complex, tiered cost and selling price studies covering multiple material options and tailored to each client's specific usage scenarios. Every quotation is fully itemized and transparent, detailing sampling costs, tooling costs, the applicable refund scheme tied to order objectives, mass production unit cost, logistics and shipping, with a clear timeline at every stage. No hidden costs, no surprises.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
FTC drives product innovation on behalf of its clients, developing differentiating products and redesigning commoditised ones to restore competitiveness. From initial styles and sample provision through to tooling proposals, FTC manages the full development cycle until the product is production-ready.
REGULATORY MONITORING
FTC monitors environmental legislation and market shifts across key markets, advising clients ahead of compliance deadlines and proposing concrete solutions before regulation becomes a problem. When materials become non-compliant or commoditized, FTC identifies sustainable substitution opportunities.
