Compliance oversight & verification at every stage
Quality
Canvas defines and maintains the highest quality standards through documented SOPs, protocols and manuals.
Import
As your sourcing partner, Canvas will train your team on how to comply with US Customs import requirements, California home decor regulations, URN registration and labeling. We'll create forwarder SOPs and educate staff on proper communication paths. The health of your company’s vendor matrix is vital; Canvas will evaluate and partner with you to ensure proper distribution across countries to reduce 301 tariff and currency risk.
Vendor
To ensure standards are maintained, Canvas will develop and train your team to manage vendors and guide their performance. If needed, we will create a manual and report cards to define your company requirements for vendor performance.
Packaging
Canvas will define and document drop-test standards and packaging guidelines. We'll evaluate your current packaging to discover opportunities for improvement and cost reduction.
