Upon successful completion of prototyping, the next challenge to overcome was figuring out a way to streamline logistics overseas during COVID-19. Although COVID-19 caused many retail project delays and pricing increases due to raw materials shortages, LEDCONN still managed to streamline communications by providing direct support at the China facility level to the overseas display fabricator. LEDCONN’s China engineering support teams made product retooling, prototyping and even logistics scheduling much easier for the fabricator. To meet an aggressive drop shipment deadline, the LEDCONN China support team planned to ship the illuminated displays in multiple 4-6 week cycles. The first shipment was for 86 stores, the next month a batch of lights were provided to 100 stores, and the final shipment reached the remaining 50 stores.
