Offshore scanning services

[M like Leica M6]

Imagine you have a customer who wants to scan 250,000 slides, negatives and prints... in good quality. If you manage to make a good 35mm slide scan with, let's say, a Nikon 9000, within two minutes, all work included, the scanner will run 24 hours for one year.

I know that some people use offshore scanning services for large volume scanning. I heard some companies in India are specialized in this area of business. Can you recommend some of them?

The cheapest way is to get a complete list of vendors, from your local trusted stores to mail-out development, tell them your expected volumn, ask them to submit a bid. They will sort out their own logistic.

When you have that kind of volumn, it is a business negotiation, not a hobby anymore. Any repurtable stores, A&I in CA, slideprinter in Denver, etc, will do their best to win the business.
