ODM Product Development
ODM (original design manufacturing) means starting from a manufacturer-developed base style and adapting it to your brand, instead of developing from scratch.

FAQ
ODM Product Development: buyer questions
How is ODM different from OEM?
With OEM you provide the design. With ODM you start from an existing base style and adapt it, which can shorten development.
