| Design & Product Development |
Our design studio is
strategically located in our New York Office to
allow full access to the New York Design community.
Our creative teams are well versed in the latest
trends and market conditions. We attend the various
trade shows, and shop both the domestic and
International markets. This enables us to
consistently be on target with the latest trends.
All designers are supported by in-house
traditional free hand artists and CAD designers in
the creative process.
As lines are launched, we are back out in
Product development is an integral part of the
design process. Our distinctive approach has this
process
completed hand-in-hand with the developers. This
ensures that our designs are a viable concept,
before we
ever show them to a customer.
Product Development is also one of the most
important components to the quality of a finished
product. We
know every little detail counts and where even the
smallest item can make a difference in the final
product.
We have two branches of Product Development. One
in the New York Office and in China in our
manufacturing
facilities.
All items have a final product review prior to
going into production. This ensures that product
specifications are
followed during manufacturing and customer
expectations of finished goods are met. |
| Global Sourcing & Manufacturing |
Our sourcing capabilities and
manufacturing are primarily throughout China and
different parts of Asia.
Silver Buffalo, LLC. has joint venture
partnerships and long-term business relationships
with mills and
manufacturing facilities throughout China. Our China
office manages and coordinates manufacturing for all
of these factories.
Our New York production team is responsible for
our manufacturing and sourcing.
It is because of these joint partnerships and long
term relationships that we are able to offer
consistent quality and pricing flexibility. |
| Quality Control & Social Responsibility |
We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.
Aristotle All of our facilities both owned and
partner have in-line quality control.
In-line quality control limits defects,
seconds and acts as a training tool.
- Inspection during each stage of the
operation.
- Using industry standard measurements, if
bundles contain excessive defects, they are
returned to the operator who last handled the
product.
- This ensures corrections are made at
once, no additional mistakes are made and
operators learn of errors and are immediately
trained to avoid any in the future.
We also have external quality control agents
reviewing product prior to shipments. This ensures
that we do not waste time or money moving product to
the United States unless it meets all quality and
customer expectations.
These are done by customer approved agencies like
SGS and ITS; both are established core agencies in
the industry.
These same independent non-government agencies
routinely inspect our facilities for Social
Responsibility & Human rights compliance. |
| Customer Service & Distribution |
We aim above the mark to hit
the mark.
