About OEM

What is OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)?

OEM refers to a business model where products are manufactured under another company's brand name.

Recently, the importance of the OEM business model has grown, driven by the rise of fabless manufacturing and an increase in venture companies.

OEM is primarily classified into two types, and both parties involved— the commissioning party and the contracting party—benefit from each type.

Understanding the characteristics of each form is essential to selecting the best OEM partner for your business.

  1. Commissioning the Manufacturing of Own Brand Products

    The commissioning party is responsible for the development and specification of its own brand products, while the manufacturing is outsourced to the contracting party.

  2. OEM Company Proposing Products to Other Brands

    The contracting party designs and manufactures the product and offers it to other companies for sale under their brand.
