Client Challenge
The property management company in Lagos was looking to expand its home fire safety product range to meet growing residential market demand in Nigeria. Previous suppliers had issues with:
- Inconsistent product quality between batches
- Missing ISO 9001 / CB certification documentation
- Long lead times (60+ days) causing stock-outs
- Limited APP localization — English-only interface unsuitable for Nigeria consumers
Wanlin's Solution
Wanlin assigned a dedicated export account manager to the Lagos client and provided:
1. Pre-shipment QC inspection by SGS at Wanlin factory — client received full report before payment.
2. Complete ISO 9001 / CB documentation package — accepted by Nigeria customs on first submission.
3. Customized packaging with Nigeria language instructions and local compliance marks.
4. 7-week delivery via sea freight (FCL) + DHL air for urgent replenishment orders.
5. English + local-language APP — reducing customer support burden for the Lagos client.
Results After 6 Months
- Zero quality-related returns from end consumers in Nigeria
- 94% repeat purchase rate among end users who registered the APP
- Client expanded from 1 SKU to 5 Wanlin product lines
- Second order placed within 3 months — quantity increased by 64%
- Achieved ISO 9001 factory audit acceptance by Nigeria insurance partner
