I have three North sails, I believe all from Sri Lanka. My NorDac main was made incorrectly, and my chute came with a 3-digit instead of 5-digit sail number. Although off-season service has been okay, I’m done with North due to price and QA/QC problems. My go-to Genoa is a Doyle. Don’t know where it was made, but I’m very happy with it. Don’t know anything about Quantum.
