8:00am – 2:30pm. The American Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong will host the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission ('CPSC") Buyer's Training on September 7, 2015.
Buyers who source consumer products for eventual retail sale are key decision makers at the intersection of the production and retail value chains. They have the power to ensure products purchased for their companies or clients meet all safety requirements but too often, they lack the knowledge to fulfill this role. Product Safety Training for Buyers & Sourcing Professionals can help fill that gap.
In this seminar, product safety staff from the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) will present Half-day FREE training for buyers and sourcing professionals , who procure consumer products for export to the USA. Focus is on products for children and on products that have demonstrated high risks of safety violations and hazards.
