Example - furniture exports

Vietnam's furniture exports are experiencing tremendous growth. The sector exceeds $1.5 billion annually, with the USA, the EU and Japan being Vietnam's top export markets. The country's reputation for high quality and craftsmanship has attracted several top brands including Century, Drexel, Henredon, Roche Bobois and Stickley. Vietnam's wooden furniture sector has experienced remarkable advances in recent years and is considered an emerging rival in the world's wooden furniture market.

Using the Design Build Export 10 step process, Rossignol Sourcing coordinated a comprehensive indoor furniture sourcing program for a large U.S. furniture manufacturer. This saved our client time and money because we only introduced them to qualified factories capable of producing to their exact specifications.
