What is the difference between OEM and ODM?

OEM builds to your design; ODM designs the product and you brand it. Both can be done in the Greater Bay Area.

Which is cheaper, OEM or ODM?

ODM is usually faster and cheaper to launch because development is reuse; OEM gives more control over the design.

Which should a new brand choose?

Start with ODM or private label for speed, then move to OEM as your design matures.

Use NNN / confidentiality terms, dual-sourcing on key items, and limit full drawing release to the assigned workshop.
