In today’s competitive retail landscape, quality isn’t just a differentiator, it’s a demand. From big box stores to boutique brands, ensuring products meet exacting standards before they reach the customer is essential for protecting brand reputation, minimizing returns, and building long-term trust. At Stratosphere Quality, we understand the high stakes of retail, and we’re here to help retailers and suppliers deliver on their promises — every single time.

Experience That Spans the Retail Spectrum

With decades of experience across a wide variety of consumer products, Stratosphere Quality has built a reputation for excellence in retail quality assurance. Our teams have worked with:

  • Big box retailers
  • Home goods and furnishings
  • Golf carts and golf balls
  • Mattresses and bedding
  • Pet food and pet care products
  • Washers, dryers, and large appliances
  • Apparel and textiles

… and so much more. Whether it’s a critical component of a household appliance or the stitching on a branded jacket, we know what to look for and how to correct it.

Our Core Services: Built for Retail Success

We offer a full suite of quality assurance services to help retailers and suppliers maintain high standards across the supply chain:

Inspection

Our trained inspectors provide comprehensive visual, dimensional, and functional checks to identify issues before they become costly problems.

Sorting

When products don’t meet specifications, we separate non-conforming units to prevent them from reaching customers, saving time, money, and brand integrity.

Rework & Repair

When something goes wrong, we make it right. From simple fixes to more complex rework, our teams can bring products back into spec without disrupting your operations.

Project Management

Every retail quality project comes with moving parts, so we keep them under control. Our experienced project managers coordinate every detail, from team deployment to issue resolution, ensuring smooth execution from start to finish.

Real-Time Visibility with Our Proprietary Technology: Solar

Stratosphere Quality’s proprietary technology platform, SOLAR, gives clients full visibility into their quality operations. With real-time project updates, digital reports, and customizable dashboards, Solar empowers our clients to make informed decisions faster, track trends, and stay one step ahead.

No guesswork. No waiting. Just clarity and control.
