USED, as a leading second-hand footwear company, implements strict quality control procedures to ensure that used women’s shoes meet the highest standards before resale or export. From collection to grading, each step is designed to guarantee hygiene, durability, and customer satisfaction.
1. Careful Collection
USED sources used women’s shoes from trusted donation centers, thrift stores, and community programs. This ensures the starting point is high-quality footwear suitable for grading.
2. Initial Inspection
Upon arrival, shoes are checked for major defects, damage, or contamination. Shoes that do not meet basic standards are removed from the grading process.
3. Detailed Grading
English:
Shoes are graded according to condition:
• Grade A: Lightly used, almost like new
• Grade B: Moderately worn, still presentable
• Grade C: Heavily worn, suitable for low-cost markets or recycling
Each grade determines its resale, donation, or recycling path.
4. Cleaning and Sanitization
Before resale or export, Grade A and B shoes undergo cleaning, deodorizing, and sometimes disinfection to meet hygiene and presentation standards.
5. Quality Assurance Checks
Random samples from each batch are re-checked to ensure consistency in grading, cleanliness, and packaging. This final step guarantees that customers receive quality shoes.
Conclusion
