You'll learn:
- What kind of capabilities the Contrado factory has in order to keep up with customer demand [02:44]
- How a small business could utilise Contrado's low MOQ's to test out different product types [05:51]
- How Chris and his wife Fran started the business from humble beginnings [10:05]
- Why technology plays such a big part in the business [15:14]
- How Chris manages his skilled workforce to create over 500 different products [18:10]
- What systems Contrado has in place to guarantee happy customers [22:34]
