- InitialLastName 6y agoBuild first locally, and then transition to China is a pretty natural pattern, especially for a smallish design firm... you can get the design and production process tightly controlled in a situation where you can easily visit the manufacturing facility, then move it to somewhere that can handle your scale economically. There's a dual marketing benefit too, as when the initial reviews are coming out you get into peoples' heads as "made in EU" and then that brainworm never resets when you move production, and you also get to gauge your demand without the time+money input of ramping up production on another continent.
