Cambodia Garment Manufacturing Success Story

Helping Cambodia's garment manufacturer achieve AEO certification and secure contracts with international brands

Garment Manufacturing Phnom Penh 2024 Partnership

Client Overview

Company Profile

A leading Cambodian garment manufacturer producing apparel for international brands including H&M, Zara, and Nike. Established in 2012, with 2,000+ employees and 30,000 sqm factory in Phnom Penh Special Economic Zone.

Partnership Background

In 2024, the client needed to enhance fabric testing capabilities to meet international brand requirements and achieve AEO (Authorized Economic Operator) certification for faster customs clearance.

Client Challenges

❌ No In-house Fabric Testing

Relied entirely on third-party testing labs in China, with 2-3 week turnaround times, causing production delays and missed shipping deadlines.

❌ Quality Rejection Rate

8% of shipments rejected by international brands due to fabric quality issues, resulting in $2M+ annual losses and damaged client relationships.

❌ Unable to Obtain AEO Certification

Lack of proper quality control documentation and testing facilities prevented AEO certification, leading to slower customs clearance and higher logistics costs.
