Raine Mahdi is the founder of a global sourcing platform called Zipfox, which boasts the largest and most comprehensive network of fully pre-screened and vetted factories in Mexico.
All industries that classically import from China continue to face challenges. And as you know, the furniture industry is no different. Many companies are redirecting their focus closer to home, and have their eyes on Mexico in particular.
China still leads in furniture manufacturing by sheer volume, but Mexican quality is now considered on par with that of Italy. And besides quality and workmanship, Mexican factories offer a better supply chain and shorter lead times as well as sufficient capacity and competitive prices.
Mahdi started Zipfox after personally learning the hard way that offshore production can be unnecessarily expensive, slow and risky. With this “shortcut” of sorts, he has helped countless businesses reduce manufacturing time, costs and hassles in a turnkey, transparent manner.
