Import / Export
We have been highly active for many years in purchasing goods and materials from China, Vietnam, India and Indonesia.
Our membership of a large purchasing organisation specialising in supplying the seating industry, furniture upholsterers, sailmakers, awning manufacturers and so on means we are able to purchase various groups of items very economically and put them on the market at low prices.
This collaboration with other importers, spread across several continents, ensures that prices remain low and quality high. There are therefore several people who keep a close eye on this process and are able to provide each other with support where necessary.
The company’s director, Ruud Botman, visits these countries two to three times each year, along with other members of the purchasing organisation, in order to learn about new products, conduct checks on production processes in order to maintain the high level of quality and to ensure suppliers meet their obligations.
Many goods are sold per container to large-volume users on a commission basis. Examples of goods include non-woven base cloth, mattress covers and cushion covers as well as inner cushion pads. In addition, Bonnell and pocket springs and lift systems for TV screens are also important import items.
These countries also produce various electrically-adjustable frames for us for boxsprings and so on. We can have these frames made on an exclusive basis. The technical details are taken care of by our own company.
For more information, please contact our sales office in Herkenbosch. You can also contact the managing director, Ruud Botman, directly at rbotman@botmanbv.nl.
