These articles are written for brands and buyers who source luggage from a factory. Each one answers a question that comes up before or during an order, and they fall into four groups: working with a factory (quotes, MOQ, samples, tooling, payment and lead time), products and materials (full aluminum, aluminum frame, PC and PP, and the wheels, locks and handles that go on them), quality and testing (inspection, AQL and test reports), and compliance and markets (labelling, safety rules, tariffs and export packing for the US, EU, UK and Canada). Written from our factory in Houjie, Dongguan.
