Myanmar presents a plethora of opportunities for manufacturers and investors. Newly reformed economic policies have allowed the country to receive favorable project commitments from international investors in different manufacturing industries such as wood products, textiles and apparel – which helps Myanmar establish itself as a competitive trading partner.
Although the socio-economic situation has improved and the manufacturing sector is burgeoning, companies must still consider various risks involved in investing in Myanmar as its industrial sector develops.
Pro QC maintains a strong presence in Myanmar’s quality control industry. As a third-party inspection and quality consulting company, we are committed to protecting our clients’ interests at all times. Our local team consists of professional quality engineers, advisors and consultants that deeply understand the potential liabilities and risks for new international manufacturers and buyers in this region of the world.
Whether our clients are experiencing late shipments, product quality defects, manufacturing issues that require corrective action planning or wish to audit factories against international standards, our team of experts can assist in solving these problems, often on short notice, where and when needed.
Pro QC’s range of quality services goes beyond traditional product inspection in Myanmar.
We work closely with clients to support their businesses in identifying and assessing suppliers, reducing quality risks, solving quality issues throughout the supply chain and monitoring quality improvement. Overall, Pro QC aims to improve the sourcing and purchasing experience, giving peace of mind to clients dealing with new or existing suppliers.

By performing product inspections, we can identify problems early with the goal of eliminating the underlying causes.
At Pro QC, we also work closely with clients and their suppliers to improve their system, processes and manufacturing capabilities.
Our product quality inspection services identify quality defects and non-conformities, ensuring that your quality requirements are not compromised at an early stage. We provide the following types of product quality inspections in Myanmar:
We can inspect first-article samples prior to mass production. We identify the defects at an early stage in order to solve related issues and to avoid replicating them at a large scale. Our inspectors verify that the engineering of the product -drawings, parts, functions and other specific requirements -conform to your specifications. This process ensures that specifications are well understood, verified and documented.
We visit the factory of your supplier while they are producing your products. We perform assessments of the manufacturing processes and quality inspections at the key steps of the production process. This inspection process allows us to detect errors that might lead to a non-conforming product before production is completed. Quality engineers verify that the manufacturing processes are reliable and consistent, and that the products coming off the production line are in accordance with your requirements.
These final product quality inspections are done on-site when the products are 100% produced in order to ensure that they meet your requirements. Pre-shipment inspections helps reduce the risk associated with receiving defective products before shipment of the goods. Our quality inspectors provide detailed feedback and images to document any non-conformity as part of our comprehensive inspection reports.
We verify that the containers carrying your precious goods are packed according to your requirements using industry methodology and international standards. Such cargo inspections involve supervision of the loading process, monitoring the quantity of the packed goods, checking the storage and condition of the container before and after closure and that the goods are correctly handled when loaded into the shipping containers. Major ports where we conduct container loading supervision in Burma are:
