I hear this term all the time--e.g Mainland Ukes are made in China, but "set up" in Indiana, and recommendations that one buy a uke from a local store, so they can "set it up" for you. Does this just mean making sure the action is not too low or too high, or is there more involved in "setting up" a ukulele? The two music stores nearest me only stock a few ukes, and as far as I can discern, the folks that run them don't know much or care much about ukes, so I am not really sure they can do any "set up" anyway.
