Sourcing and quality assurance across various overseas jurisdictions

Vision provides Whitaker services with a broad range of in-country sourcing, inspection and export fulfillment services. Together we co-ordinate specific ranges on behalf of our customers with product manufactured in multiple jurisdictions, providing all necessary sampling and certification documentation. We are able to offer institutional service providers the opportunity to out-source a range of selected sourcing and fulfillment services to a best-in-class specialist. We source exclusive product only from responsible manufacturers who comply with exacting standards, across the environmental, ethical and efficiency spectrums. We impose on our manufacturing partners international best practice, in terms of health and safety, general labour conditions, toxic emissions and Total Quality Management, and are regularly assessed by internal and third party auditors including Bureau Veritas, BRC and ISO.
