Client Challenge
The fire safety contractor in Phoenix was looking to expand its home fire safety product range to meet growing residential market demand in USA. Previous suppliers had issues with:
- Inconsistent product quality between batches
- Missing CE / ETL certification documentation
- Long lead times (60+ days) causing stock-outs
- Limited APP localization — English-only interface unsuitable for USA consumers
Wanlin's Solution
Wanlin assigned a dedicated export account manager to the Phoenix client and provided:
1. Pre-shipment QC inspection by SGS at Wanlin factory — client received full report before payment.
2. Complete CE / ETL documentation package — accepted by USA customs on first submission.
3. Customized packaging with USA language instructions and local compliance marks.
4. 2-week delivery via sea freight (FCL) + DHL air for urgent replenishment orders.
5. English + local-language APP — reducing customer support burden for the Phoenix client.

- Zero quality-related returns from end consumers in USA
- 96% repeat purchase rate among end users who registered the APP
- Client expanded from 1 SKU to 7 Wanlin product lines
- Second order placed within 3 months — quantity increased by 36%
