Client Challenge
The building materials supplier in Athens was looking to expand its home fire safety product range to meet growing residential market demand in Greece. Previous suppliers had issues with:
- Inconsistent product quality between batches
- Missing CB / ETL certification documentation
- Long lead times (60+ days) causing stock-outs
- Limited APP localization — English-only interface unsuitable for Greece consumers
Wanlin's Solution
Wanlin assigned a dedicated export account manager to the Athens client and provided:
1. Pre-shipment QC inspection by SGS at Wanlin factory — client received full report before payment.
2. Complete CB / ETL documentation package — accepted by Greece customs on first submission.
3. Customized packaging with Greece language instructions and local compliance marks.
4. 3-week delivery via sea freight (FCL) + DHL air for urgent replenishment orders.
5. English + local-language APP — reducing customer support burden for the Athens client.
Results After 6 Months
- Zero quality-related returns from end consumers in Greece
- 91% repeat purchase rate among end users who registered the APP
- Client expanded from 1 SKU to 8 Wanlin product lines
- Second order placed within 4 months — quantity increased by 45%
- Achieved ISO 9001 factory audit acceptance by Greece insurance partner
