For many brands, allowing suppliers access to brand resources and intellectual property is inevitable when goods production is commissioned. This is where Eurofins Assurance's brand protection audit can help to ensure brand protection compliance at manufacturing sites. 

With on-site audits conducted by our auditors, we examine the supplier’s practices in handling procedures and documentation around brand resources provided for production. Key stages in the manufacturing process, including the design section, purchasing section, warehouse, and backend office are assessed to confirm proper protection of intellectual property and elimination of brand infringement. 

Upon receiving the brand protection audit reports, brand owners will be able to identify the risks of working with the suppliers, make informed business decisions, and drive improvement plans. The report is designed intuitively to give a clear and full picture of sourcing risks, scoring, and major concerns, so that it is easily comprehensible for any report recipient. 

The service complements any precautionary actions that brand owners are taking proactively.
