Company & Factory
The production location is in the Ningbo area, China. The full verified address and available video, on-site or third-party audit arrangements will be provided for a qualified project.
Cutting, sewing, inspection and any partner processes need a verified process map. Dyeing, printing, embroidery and special finishing must be identified as internal or approved external work for each project.
The planned focus is US, UK, EU and Australian activewear brands, startups, wholesalers and retailers; specific experience should be supported by authorized records.
MOQ
The planning reference is [FROM 300 PCS / STYLE]. The final minimum is confirmed per style and color after fabric, logo, trims and packing are defined; fabric and custom-dye minimums are separate.
Sizes may be allocated within an approved style and color after grading and production review. Each color has its own quoted minimum; a second color is not automatically included in one MOQ.
A stock fabric, stock color, sample order or surcharge may be reviewed case by case. Custom dye, molds and trims can set higher independent minimums.
Customization
Private Label adapts an existing base; ODM develops from a brief or reference; OEM follows an approved Tech Pack. Feasibility, MOQ and sample scope differ by route.
Waistband, rise, inseam, gusset, pocket, strap, neckline, seams, fabric, color, logo, labels and packaging can be reviewed. Each approved change enters the controlled specification.
Heat transfer, silicone, rubber patch, embroidery, screen print and other methods need a sample on the selected fabric. Main, size and care labels, hangtags, barcode, bags and carton marks are specified separately; molds and special trims may have independent minimums.
An approved Tech Pack can define the pattern, measurements, BOM, artwork, label and packing requirements. Feasibility, sample scope and any missing specifications are reviewed before quotation and PPS approval.
A sketch, reference garment or brief can start feasibility review. Technical drawings, measurement sheets and a BOM then need approval before production.
Samples & Development
Sample, pattern, special-trim and mold charges are quoted separately. Whether any fee is credited against a bulk order is agreed before development.
The planning target is [7–14 DAYS], subject to fabric availability, custom dye, logo method, trims and revisions.
The number of rounds is agreed with the development scope. Fit comments lead to a revised sample; the approved PPS and golden sample become production references.
A fit sample reviews fit and construction, a size set checks grading, and PPS is the pre-production sample. Bulk starts only after PPS approval and agreed prerequisites.
Fabric
The proposed library covers nylon/spandex, polyester/spandex, brushed, ribbed, interlock, seamless yarn and recycled routes. Every selected fabric needs a verified code and specification.
Request swatches by Fabric Code or send a reference fabric. Availability, shipping cost and timing are confirmed before dispatch.
A custom color requires mill feasibility, a lab dip, approval and a separate dye minimum. A 5–7 day lab-dip period in the brief is illustrative, not a fixed promise.
An available stock Fabric Code and color may reduce preparation time and material minimums. A new construction, finish or custom dye needs mill feasibility, separate fabric or color minimums, approvals and testing.
Repeat control targets the same Fabric Code, mill and construction, subject to availability. A new dye lot still requires shade and material checks.
Quality & Inspection
Incoming, inline, measurement and final checks use the approved Tech Pack, PPS or golden sample, measurement specification and agreed acceptance criteria.
The planning reference is [AQL 2.5], or the buyer's agreed plan. Critical, Major and Minor defects and third-party access should be defined before production.
Affected goods can be held, sorted, reworked or replaced under the contract, then reinspected before release. Root cause and corrective action are recorded.
Shrinkage, colorfastness, pilling, stretch and recovery, logo durability and conditional opacity can be specified. Method, sample and report scope must match the product.
Price & Payment
Fabric, GSM, quantity, construction, logo, labels, packaging, testing and one-time tooling affect cost. Quotes may be compared at 300 / 500 / 1,000 / 2,000 pieces per style when feasible.
EXW and FOB can be discussed. The FOB port, included costs and any reference-price assumptions must be specified in the quotation.
Sampling, testing, molds, custom packaging, freight and other project-specific charges should be itemized before approval.
The document's planning terms are sample 100% prepaid and bulk 30% deposit / 70% balance, subject to the signed PI. Payment method, beneficiary and balance milestone must match the contracting entity.
The accepted method, bank beneficiary and 70% balance milestone are confirmed in the signed PI. The final-inspection and shipment sequence must be agreed before payment; this prototype does not publish an unverified bank account or promise a universal release condition.
Production & Lead Time
The planning window is [40–60 DAYS] after PPS approval, deposit and fabric readiness. The agreed schedule should identify each milestone.
Chinese New Year, October holidays, mill demand and line capacity can affect timing. A rush order depends on stock fabric, trim readiness and available capacity.
They can be faster when approved fabric and trims are available; a new dye lot or revised specification may require fresh approval and lead time.
Shipping & Export
US export enquiries can be assessed with the buyer's forwarder and agreed EXW or FOB terms. Importer and product-specific compliance obligations must be confirmed separately.
A nominated forwarder and split shipments can be reviewed against the order, packing plan and contract.
The applicable Commercial Invoice, Packing List and other agreed documents are confirmed with the final trade terms.
IP & Confidentiality
An NDA can cover Tech Packs, artwork, samples, designs and commercial information. Scope is agreed before confidential files are shared.
Ownership and use rights for paid patterns, molds and artwork are defined in the development agreement before work begins.
A customer's design, logo or unreleased product should not be copied, sold or displayed without the relevant written authorization.
After-sales & Claims
Provide photographs, affected quantity, PO and SKU. The claim is reviewed against the approved standard and contract.
Rework, replacement or credit is agreed according to the findings and contract. Root cause and corrective action should be carried into repeat orders.
Carry the prior PO, approved PPS, Fabric Code, inspection findings and corrective action into the repeat-order review. A new dye lot or changed material still requires fresh confirmation.
Certifications & Compliance
BSCI, SEDEX, WRAP, ISO, OEKO-TEX or GRS may be shown only when the actual file identifies the holder, scope, address and validity. A mill certificate is not a factory certificate.
Production can follow an agreed product specification and support relevant labeling and testing. Product-specific legal requirements must be confirmed with the buyer's compliance adviser.
Only publish a claim when the relevant supply-chain documents cover the selected material, product and certification scope.
