Case Study: Boardriders achieves real-time supplier quality visibility with TradeBeyond

How Digitizing Quality Control Helped Boardriders Enhance Supply Chain Efficiency

Boardriders, the global apparel brand behind Quiksilver, Roxy, and DC Shoes, wanted to improve supplier quality and compliance visibility as it shifted toward vendor self-inspection. Its main challenges were limited visibility into supply chain and quality processes, weak supplier collaboration, and low employee engagement and accountability.

To address this, Boardriders partnered with TradeBeyond and implemented its supplier compliance and inspection capabilities across 70 vendors and 450+ users in less than 10 working days. TradeBeyond helped Boardriders rapidly roll out certification to more than 40 factories in 13 countries, gain real-time monitoring and analytics, and standardize workflows, resulting in better compliance follow-ups, more structured processes, and stronger visibility into booking compliance, inspections, and overall quality performance.
