Platform88 Factories
Global manufacturing is changing. In order to keep pace with industry trends, we’ve invested heavily in both fully owned and joint venture partnerships outside of China.
For now, our core is still China, but we have significant operations and staff located in Cambodia, Vietnam, and India.

Mainland China Factories
Our roots are in China, but we are rapidly expanding to Southeast Asia and India. We have come to realize that supply chain diversification, whether due to changes in the political climate or as a result of cost control, tariffs, or other issues, is a growing concern for most of our customers. As such, we have rapidly expanded outside of China in order to help de-risk your venture.

Southeast Asia & India
Although we have looked at sites in Eastern Europe and South America, Southeast Asia and India have made the most sense to us as we expand outside of China. Many components and raw materials still originate in China. The process of shipping them beyond Asia is costly and slows down the manufacturing process.
Cambodia
Velong Industries
Cambodia
Velong Industries is currently building its first fully owned facility outside of China. The core competencies of the factory will be injection molding, metals stamping, and basic assembly. Soon after completion the factory will expand to small electronics. Goods will be shipped from this facility beginning in December of 2020. Recognizing the extent of political unrest and violence in this country, it is the intent of Velong to partner with an international NGO to build a school for the children of the workers of the factory. Proceeds from production will go to support this school.
Vietnam
