OEM vs ODM: What’s the Difference?
- OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer): You provide the design and specifications, we manufacture the product to your exact requirements. Ideal for established brands with existing product designs.
- ODM (Original Design Manufacturer): We provide the product design based on our existing platforms, you apply your branding and make specification adjustments. Ideal for distributors looking to launch their own product line without R&D investment.
