What is a contract manufacturer?
A contract manufacturer can be equated with a manufacturing company and is basically a “contract manufacturer”. A manufacturing company is the supplier of a manufacturer. Although the goods it produces are delivered directly to the end customer, the contract manufacturer does not act as a supplier to the customer. The contract manufacturer leaves this action to the manufacturer or its distributor.
Overview of the types of manufacturing companies:
- Suppliers
- Outsourcing
- Contract manufacturing
“In economics,outsourcing refers to the transfer of corporate tasks and structures to external or internal service providers. It is a special form of external procurement of services previously provided internally, with contracts specifying the duration and object of the service. This distinguishes outsourcing from other partnerships.” (Source: www.wikipedia.de)
Quality assurance is carried out by the customer, the manufacturer on site. In addition, there are also an increasing number of manufacturing companies that produce certain products on behalf of brand manufacturers or retailers, but are not allowed to sell them to the end consumer themselves.
