RISKY BUSINESSChina Supply Chain Management

� While costs have been increasing, China continues to be one of the top worldwide locations for manufacturing hardlines, with the outsourcing market growing at around 30% p.a.

� Reducing costs and affording companies the time to focus on core activities are most often cited for the reasons entities look to outsource some or all of their production to China.

� Uncertainty, driven by barriers of distance and time, cultural differences, language, and an overall lack of trust, has added at best caution and at worst hidden costs to China sourcing.

Custom Solutions to Complex Problems � Sertus is a supply chain management company with wholly owned operations in China. The company is owned by Western professionals.

� Through our network of packaging and warehousing facilities in China, as well as on-the-ground, qualified personnel, Sertus helps companies manage difficult sourcing challenges and squeeze costs out of the supply chain

� In addition to managing contract manufacturing assignments for new designs, Sertus also works with companies to reduce COGS and improve quality by locating new sources of production for products already being sold

� Sertus acts as a “quality gate,” receiving products in our facilities for final assembly and/or packaging and/or inspection. This helps to protect intellectual property by providing visibility to sub-suppliers on only a portion of the finished product.

� “The best sourcing channel we have found in China...a partner you can rely on” — Gerson Buss, Distribuidora Nacional, Brazil

� “Sertus has effectively handled an important portion of our sourcing for many years now. Their boots-on-the ground and attention to detail let me focus on sales while they worry about managing my supply chain in China.” — Jason Cohen, Do-it-Best Panama

� “Sertus handled our quality control for the entire China production of Kindle Cases and Accessories. We could not have built the business with Amazon that we have today without them.” — Stephen Heaven, Marware, USA

� Sertus offered a turn-key solution to sourcing our dry-goods from China, including quality control, to ensure there are no delays in our production cycle while reducing costs.” — Charles Cassel - Chairman, Panache Beverages, Inc.

� Because of Sertus I have been able to develop an effective and cost efficient supply chain with many companies in Asia. I get amazing help with product development, freight issues, quality control and other great advice. If not for Sertus I would not have been able to develop a successful business enterprise.” — Marc Sherkin, MD Golf & Blue Ice Hockey, Canada
