Factor analysis and regression analysis are statistical techniques performed. From eleven attributes outlined by ISO: 9000: 2008, the factor analysis formed four components: product quality; packaging; timeliness and promptness; and customer care. The findings show that all the components achieved good quality level because all have quality scale index less than 2.99. Regression analysis was adopted to generate ISO-Quality model, model shows that among the four components of qualities, two components (product quality and customer care) are statistically significant related with the company being ISO certified. In general product quality and packaging seem to perform better than the rest of the components.en_US
