Factory selection and audits
Every BizShip factory passes a factory audit by our own team before it handles a single order. We visit, check what the factory can really make, and match it to your product, volume and compliance needs.
From many factories to the right one for your order.
Pakistan has thousands of textile factories. The right one for you depends on your product, your volume and your market, so we select per order, not from a fixed list.
Shortlist
We start from factories we already know in our network, filtered by your product, quality level, volume and the certifications your market needs.
Visit and factory audit
Our team visits the factory in person and checks capability, capacity, quality system, documents and working conditions.
Sample trial
The factory makes your counter sample. How well and how fast it does this tells us more than any brochure.
Approve and monitor
Only then is the factory proposed in your quote. After approval, every order is followed and inspected by our team.
What our factory audit checks.
Capability
The machines and processes on site, the products the factory makes today, and which steps it does in-house or sends out, such as weaving, dyeing, stitching or printing.
Capacity
Monthly output, the orders already booked, and whether your delivery date is realistic for this factory.
Quality system
An own QC team, inspection points during production, measuring tools, and how defects are recorded and corrected.
Compliance documents
Certificates and test reports, such as OEKO-TEX, GOTS or a social audit, checked to be current and to match the factory name and scope.
Working conditions
What we see on the visit: fire safety and exits, working hours, and no child labor. This is our own assessment, not a formal social audit.
Export experience
Markets the factory already ships to, export documents, and packing to buyer standards.
A factory that does not meet the standard for your order is not proposed, however good its price.
Need a formal social or quality audit?
Our factory audit is BizShip’s own check, done by our team on every factory we propose. Some buyers also need a formal audit, such as amfori BSCI, SMETA or their own audit protocol.
In that case we propose factories that already hold the audit you need, or coordinate an audit by an accredited audit company, with the cost agreed with you beforehand.
An approved factory stays approved only on performance.
Every order checked
Production follow-up and a final AQL inspection on every order show us how each factory really performs.
Issues on record
Delays, defects and how quickly they were fixed stay on the factory’s record and count at the next selection.
Change when needed
If a factory slips, we tell you and, with your agreement, move your program to a better-placed factory.
