7. How does Sabegn ensure product quality?

Every item goes through quality control at every stage:

  • Cutting: Skilled artisans hand-cut each piece (e.g., Tadesse, our master cutter, carefully selects hides for consistency)

  • Inspection: Selam, our quality control lead, ensures no detail is overlooked

This guarantees that every wholesale unit meets global standards.

You can request our Wholesale & White-Label Catalogue (PDF) by filling out the contact form on our website or emailing us directly. 

11. Do you guarantee prototyping results?

While we guarantee our best efforts in producing a prototype, due to the unpredictable nature of the process, we cannot guarantee the outcome. Be rest assured, however, that we use our years of experience and all of the resources to deliver your leather solution just the way you meant it to be.

12. Is there anything else I need to know about prototyping process?

Prototyping is a time consuming and highly unpredictable process. Sometimes the outcome is not as expected, and we have to refine the process to achieve the desired results. Your patience during this process is greatly appreciated.
