October 2011: Image Label Systems opens Shanghai office

Following hard on the heels of the expansion of their Guangzhou facility, Image Label Systems has opened an office in Shanghai, another step in the expansion of their supply footprint throughout Asia and the Pacific.

"Our new facility in Shanghai provides warehousing and distribution services nearer to the manufacturing regions in the north-east of China" says CEO David Marshall.

The five eastern coastal Provinces of Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong and Fujian together contribute 80% of China's total apparel production, with the adjoining inland Provinces of Henan, Jiangxi and Hunan achieving rapid development.

"The future is about delivering ongoing efficiencies into our customers supply chains, particularly in the context of costs and time to market" says Marshall.  "Our production, warehousing and distribution footprint in China will continue to grow as a major component of this strategy".
