Full-Lifecycle Product Development

    We Don't Just Find Factories. We Bring Your Product to Life.

    You have the idea. We have the engineers, the vetted factory network, and the regional manufacturing intelligence to bring it to life. Vakerus matches every product to the right production cluster — the region where the materials, tooling, and specialized labor already exist — then manages every stage from first sketch to delivered inventory. You don't figure out global manufacturing alone. You never have to.

    Start Your Project

    From Napkin Sketch to Mass Production

    Vakerus isn't just a sourcing company — we are a full product development partner. We help companies navigate every stage of turning an idea into a manufactured, shelf-ready product. Here's how we do it.

    Stage 1

    Concept & Design

    • 3D modeling and industrial design
    • CAD file creation from rough sketches, photos, or verbal descriptions
    • Design-for-manufacturing (DFM) consultation — we don't just make it look good, we make sure it CAN be made
    Stage 2

    Engineering & File Audit

    • 3D file audit for production readiness
    • Tolerance analysis, wall thickness checks, draft angle review
    • Material selection guidance (resin vs. PP vs. metal vs. composite)
    • Identify potential production issues BEFORE tooling starts
    Stage 3

    Prototyping

    • 3D printed prototypes (SLA resin, FDM, SLS)
    • Functional prototype development — not just visual models, but working samples
    • Temporary mold prototypes when 3D printing won't replicate final material properties
    • Iterative revision rounds until the client approves
    Stage 4

    Manufacturability & Scalability Study

    • Can this be injection molded? CNC machined? Die cast?
    • What's the optimal production method at 100 units vs. 10,000 vs. 100,000?
    • Tooling cost analysis (single-cavity vs. multi-cavity molds)
    • Production timeline mapping
    Stage 5

    Price Target Study

    • BOM (Bill of Materials) cost breakdown
    • Factory-direct FOB and DDP pricing
    • Target retail price reverse-engineering — "you want to sell at $X, here's what it needs to cost"
    • Margin analysis at different MOQ tiers
    Stage 6

    Packaging & Compliance

    • Custom packaging design (retail box, blister pack, mailer, etc.)
    • Regulatory compliance review (UL, CE, FCC, FDA, CPSIA — whatever applies)
    • Labeling, barcoding, and retail-ready preparation
    • Amazon FBA prep if applicable
    Stage 7

    Production & QC

    • Factory selection and vetting from our verified network
    • On-site QC inspections at every production milestone
    • Pre-shipment inspection before goods leave the factory
    • Full transparency — photos, videos, reports at every stage
    Stage 8

    Logistics & Delivery

    • DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) pricing — no surprise costs
    • Ocean freight, air freight, or express shipping coordination
    • Customs clearance handling
    • Delivery to your door, warehouse, or Amazon FBA center

    See It In Action: From Idea to Production-Ready J1772 Charger

    The Challenge

    A US-based client needed a complete EV charging station — not just the enclosure, but the full product: custom housing, PCB (printed circuit board), J1772 connector integration, and production-ready assembly. They had a concept but no engineering files, no factory relationships, and no clear path to production.

    What Vakerus Did

    • Took the client's concept and created full 3D models and CAD engineering files
    • Audited the 3D files for injection mold feasibility — identified draft angle issues and wall thickness problems before tooling
    • Developed functional prototypes including PCB integration
    • Conducted manufacturability study — determined optimal production method (injection molding for housing, custom PCB fabrication, manual assembly line for electronics)
    • Ran price target study to hit client's retail price goal
    • Managed custom mold creation (tooling)
    • Coordinated full assembly: housing + PCB + wiring + J1772 connector
    • On-site QC at every stage — from first shots off the mold to final assembled units
    • Shipped production-ready units DDP to the US

    The Result

    Client went from concept to production-ready product with full tooling, tested prototypes, and a scalable manufacturing partner — all through a single point of contact.

    Built for Accountability. Staffed for Execution.

    Most product development firms hand you a design file and wish you luck. We stay with you through every stage — because we own the outcome, not just the deliverable.

    The Team

    • Operations and QC team based in China and Hong Kong — embedded in factory regions
    • QC inspectors on the ground conducting daily and weekly progress checks
    • US-based project management and client communication

    "We don't outsource our oversight. Our team IS the supply chain."

    What Makes Us Different

    Not a Broker — An Execution Partner

    We don't disappear after the introduction. We manage production, inspect quality, and stay accountable from PO to delivery.

    Daily & Weekly Accountability

    Every supplier on our platform is held to daily and weekly progress reporting. We don't wait for problems — we catch them in real time. You get photo updates, milestone tracking, and production reports on a cadence, not on request. If a factory falls behind, we know before you do — and we act.

    Boots on the Ground — We Orchestrate the Entire Project

    Our operations team is embedded in the same factory regions your products are being built. We don't manage from a screen — we walk the production floor, inspect the line, and hold every supplier accountable face to face. We orchestrate every moving piece: design, tooling, sampling, production, QC, packaging, and shipping — so you don't have to chase five different vendors across three time zones.

    IP & Data Protection Built In

    Your product designs, engineering files, and proprietary data are sensitive — we treat them that way. Vakerus only shares what is necessary with each supplier, on a need-to-know basis. Every factory partner is bound by enforceable local legal agreements including non-circumvention, non-disclosure, and IP protection clauses under the governing jurisdiction. Your ideas stay yours.

    Full Lifecycle Coverage

    From 3D design to customs clearance — one partner, one point of contact, zero gaps.

    Transparent Pricing, No Hidden Fees

    Every quote includes a full BOM breakdown, tooling costs, and landed-cost estimates. You see exactly where your money goes — no markups buried in factory invoices, no surprise charges at the port.
