With the improvement of global sports health awareness, Sport Tape plays an increasingly important role in sports training, sports rehabilitation and daily fitness. Especially in Europe and the United States, the demand for high-quality sports tape from the fitness industry, professional sports teams and rehabilitation institutions continues to grow. With its high-quality product performance and mature OEM capabilities, Sunmed is becoming a Chinese-made brand that has attracted much attention in the international market. In order to better serve overseas bulk buyers, Sunmed needs to combine the characteristics of the target customer group, optimize the OEM product strategy, and fully meet the high standards of certification and customization in the European and American markets.
Main overseas purchasing customer groups
In the European and American sports and fitness industries, Sunmed Sport Tape's main target customers include:
1. Professional sports brands and sports goods distributors
Such as Mueller, KT Tape in the United States, RockTape in the United Kingdom, BB Sports in Germany, etc., they usually have strong brand marketing and distribution channels, and prefer to find high-quality Chinese OEM factories for OEM production and OEM sales.
2. Chain gyms and rehabilitation and physiotherapy centers
Chain brands such as Anytime Fitness, F45 Training, and PhysioRoom purchase a large number of sports tapes for member rehabilitation and daily use by coaches, and have extremely high requirements for product stability and comfort.
3. E-commerce platform sellers and retail channel suppliers
Health merchants on cross-border e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, eBay, and Walmart tend to purchase customized packaging, personalized brand output, and convenient distribution combinations.
OEM strategy optimization suggestions
In order to match the above customer needs, Sunmed should systematically improve its OEM capabilities from the following aspects:
1. Comply with international certifications and break through entry barriers
CE certification (EU MDR compliance): is a prerequisite for entering the markets of EU member states;
FDA registration (Class I medical device): meets the basic requirements of the US market for sports rehabilitation products;
ISO13485 quality system certification: ensures that the entire process from R&D, production to packaging is traceable, safe and compliant.
These certifications are not only the primary criteria for purchasers to review suppliers, but also determine whether Sunmed can enter the long-term supply chain of large brands.
2. Product diversification and highly adaptable design
Provide a variety of material options: cotton, nylon, blended, etc., to meet the needs of different viscosity and elasticity;
Customize a variety of colors and patterns (such as skin color, black, color camouflage, etc.) to adapt to brand personality and market preferences;
Provide different specifications (such as 5cm x 5m, 7.5cm x 5m) and packaging combinations (single roll, double roll, multi-roll);
Support hypoallergenic glue formula to improve user skin comfort and safety.
3. Improve packaging design and brand output capabilities
Provide OEM/ODM services: support customers to provide design drafts for customized packaging (color boxes, OPP bags, hanging cards, etc.);
Can add QR codes, brand LOGO, product manuals (multi-language versions);
For e-commerce customers, we can provide marketing support such as English high-definition pictures and detail page templates.
4. Perfect delivery and after-sales service mechanism
Quick proofing and sample delivery mechanism to improve customer communication efficiency;
Small batch customization with flexible order start-up to help start-up brands test the market;
Provide stable production capacity and supply chain management system to support long-term cooperation order delivery capabilities.
