Since 1998, Theo has been actively engaged in the development of the so-called Cottage industries in this country – the local production of traditional handicrafts - and provided a steady flow of professional assistance to International Buyers.
These industries include handmade specialty wool-felt products, weaving of designer rugs, garments in pure wool or cashmere, handcrafted jewelry, wood carvings, statues, Buddhist items, incense, etc. and draw on artistic traditions dating back centuries.
But in sharp contrast to Nepal’s big neighbors (India & China) which mass produce goods and can effectively and handily control quality off the assembly line, it is obvious that Nepal’s handicrafts need to be subjected to a totally different type of stricter on-site Quality Control procedures by a Team of professionals on the ground.
We guarantee that the QC services we offer will be truly Professional and competitive cost-wise when clients compare them with those from non-nepali sources. And it is a fact that Nepal has a clear advantage in possesing local knowledge: Nepalis know nepali handicrafts better than anyone! For all these reasons, you can trust us to
....make your business safer in Nepal
To assist you in achieving that goal and save on costs, Theo’s Western Managed Team of experienced Local Inspectors propose the various services described on this site.
One last point. It is you, the importing nations, which will lead Nepal to Social Responsibility. By carrying out Social Audits, Theo and his Team fully guarantee that the nepali factories supplying your goods do not violate Labor laws and do not employ children.
TRUST US. YOU CAN RELY ON US COMPLETELY.
WE ARE AN INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTY.
