Differences Between OEM And ODM: OEM Vs ODM

Do you always hear about OEM and ODM from people around you, but you don’t know what they are? Today, we will introduce the difference between the two:

OEM? ODM?

OEM is the abbreviation of Original Entered Manufacture. Generally speaking, the brand owners have the core technology of the product but do not have their own production capacity. In order to better save costs and reduce the risks on the production line, they hand over the core technology of the product to the third-party manufacturers with productivity through contract ordering and directly paste their own brand trademarks for sales after commissioned production. This way of entrusting others to produce is called OEM. The manufacturers undertaking such processing tasks are called OEM manufacturers, and the products they produce are OEM products.

ODM is the abbreviation of Original Design Manufacturer. Generally speaking, it means that after a certain manufacturer develops and designs a certain product, it will be favored by other enterprises or individuals in some cases and requires the latter’s brand name for production. Among them, manufacturers undertaking design and manufacturing business are called ODM manufacturers, and the products they produce are ODM products.

So far, do you understand? To sum up, OEM products are intellectual property rights owned by the brand, and the manufacturer is only responsible for production, which is often referred to as “OEM”; ODM products are the intellectual property rights of the products owned by the manufacturer, which is often referred to as “OEM”.
