ABOUT
QUALITY CONTROL & LOGISTIC
BRANDSPLUS SETUP
Quality control is done 100% by our own Brandsplus QC-team. We control the incoming raw material. We supervise quality during production and when production is finalized. We not only value the quality of our goods, but we also control the working conditions of the workers. Without the approval of our Brandsplus QC-team the goods simply don’t leave the factory.
DUAL DELIVERY
We ship our goods produced in China mainly to the port of Antwerp. The Portuguese produced goods are first centralized in an external Portuguese warehouse before shipping them to our Belgian warehouses. Once arrived in our warehouses we practice a dual delivery strategy before we deliver our goods across Europe. Key accounts are serviced from an external warehouse-hub, Independent accounts via our own warehouse. For our Independent accounts we group the products of several suppliers and brands and then deliver in several time as our customers request.
