Some tips, if you get this far.
If you manufacture it in China, etc., there are huge and I mean HUGE differences in quality between factories and even employees. Good references and enough big batch of sample products eliminate most uncertainty, but you have to make sure that the tested factory does the manufacturing itself and doesn't delegate it to some sweat ass shop with total retards.
And whatever proprietary rights you get, you have to have those in China too (or in country X) or you can face the situation that the Chinese manufacturing company registers your product to itself in China. End result is that the Chinese company can stop your products leaving China, were those manufactured by anyone in there (some leverage for price negotiations). And they do register trademarks, patents, etc for clients products (to themselves).
