Quality control
Some people may be surprised to learn that it isn't the articles/blogs/research or other various marketing jobs that produces the most work for Athlone; rather it is the merchandising we do for various companies around the world. Athlone is, as you know, based in Hong Kong. Our staff speak 4 languages fluently, we have an extensive network of contacts with Chinese factories on the mainland, and we have racing experts overseeing both the design and final product ... the rest is history.

The latest contract we completed was for the same company we designed a blog for - The Dubai Racing Club.

On a lighter note, given it's the end of the week I thought you might like to see some images of the quality control process for merchandise that leaves the Athlone office:



"Yes, inside detail looks good; label is fine"



"Stitching is straight"



"Fit isn't too bad"





"Waterproof and teeth-resistant"
