China OEM Partner SelectionThat part might be manufacturable in China.
An Introduction to China OEM Partners
With its highly developed industrial base, it is hardly an exaggeration to say there is nothing China cannot manufacture today. Meanwhile, in Japan, an increasing number of industries are seeing their production capacity shrink due to industrial hollowing-out and labor shortages. For industries that rely on large numbers of parts, such as machinery, home appliances, automobiles, industrial vehicles, and heavy electrical equipment, OEM manufacturing in China is increasingly recognized as an effective option.
At the same time, selecting an OEM partner and sustaining that relationship involves many language, legal, and cultural hurdles, including technical exchanges, handling defective products, and audits. Western Japan Trading has helped customers across a wide range of industries find OEM partners and achieve long-term, stable supply.

Selection is based on a comprehensive evaluation covering track record with our company, local reputation, production capacity, location, and export experience. We also honor your confidentiality requirements as a top priority. Depending on the part, our China-based manufacturing subsidiary, Ichiwa Technology, may also be available.
