Litton Mills Inc., a subsidiary of JG Summit Holdings, Inc., has been awarded the Golden Award for 100-percent on-time delivery by Oshkosh BGosh Inc., one of the worlds largest manufacturers of childrens apparel.
Johnson Robert Go. Jr., Litton senior vice president for manufacturing and administration, said: "It is very important for buyers like Oshkosh that they get exactly what they order from their suppliers. This means having the right product delivered at the right time and in the right quantity. Weve been able to do that successfully."
"To be given this accolade is of great relevance to us because it validates our commitment and competitiveness as a global company. We are dedicated to creating products that our customers want and delivering these on a timely fashion," he said.
Go said Oshkoshs award was particularly rewarding for Litton because of the US firms high standards of quality.
"Oshkosh is one of the most demanding customers in terms of their quality standards since they cater to a very discriminating market, that of childrens clothing. There are more stringent quality and safety parameters when manufacturing for childrens clothing fabric strength, type of dyes used, consistent colors that set it apart from garments for teens and adults," he said.
Litton has been supplying Oshkosh with denims for the past three years. Wisconsin-based Oshkosh is best recognized as one of the worlds leading manufacturers of childrens wear representing classic American style and quality. Its products are widely distributed in department and specialty stores in the United States and in over 80 countries worldwide.
In the last five years, the company has been holding annual vendor conferences to gather all their suppliers and partners in the business worldwide. This year, the conference was held at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada.
