OEM is suitable when your product is already technically defined. You provide the tech pack, measurement chart, artwork, construction details and material requirements. Development and production follow these approved specifications.

ODM is suitable when part of the product still needs development. You may begin with sketches, reference garments, mood boards or a market brief. Ткань, строительство, fit and decoration options are then developed for your approval.

Before starting, both sides should confirm who supplies the pattern and artwork, what development work is included, who owns the final files and which approval releases the order for production.

Да. We can begin with clear reference photographs, sketches or a physical garment. However, the first quotation should be treated as an estimate until the main product details are confirmed.

• Front, back and construction references.
• Target fabric weight and hand feel.
• Fit direction and approximate measurements.
• Logo method, dimensions and placement.
• Estimated quantity by style and color.
• Packaging and destination market.

Missing information should be shown as an open decision instead of being silently assumed in the quotation.

MOQ is not determined only by sewing capacity. It is frequently controlled by the minimum purchase or setup quantity for fabric dyeing, custom colors, rib, zippers, этикетки, печать, embroidery and packaging.

The real MOQ should be confirmed by style, color and customization method. A total order may appear large enough while each individual color is still below the material minimum.

Starting quantities may be reduced by using available fabrics, existing colors, shared trims, fewer colorways and standardized packaging.

A unit price is only meaningful when the assumptions behind it are visible. The quotation should identify the fabric, обрезки, строительство, decoration positions, number of colors, этикетки, packaging and quantity breakdown used for pricing.

• Sample development and additional sample rounds.
• Custom fabric, screen or digitizing setup.
• Testing and third-party inspection.
• Special labeling and packaging.
• International freight and insurance.
• Import duties and destination clearance.

If the specification changes, the revised price should be confirmed before new materials or processes are ordered.

Sampling time depends on more than sewing. Custom fabric, special dyeing, unique trims, pattern development and decoration strike-offs may each require a separate approval stage.

The number of revisions is mainly affected by how complete the first specification is and whether all buyer comments are consolidated into one clear file.

Every sample round should end with one dated comment document showing what is approved, what must change and which decisions remain open.

A sample alone is not enough. The production standard should combine the physical sample with all approved technical information.

• Sealed pre-production sample.
• Confirmed bill of materials.
• Measurement chart and tolerances.
• Artwork dimensions and placement.
• Ткань, rib and color references.
• Label and packaging instructions.

First-piece and in-line checks identify production drift while correction is still possible. Any unavoidable substitution should be approved before it enters production.

Fabric approval should cover more than composition and weight. Depending on the product, buyers may need to confirm construction, usable width, ощущение руки, color, shrinkage, stretch, recovery, pilling and colorfastness.

Custom colors should be approved against a physical reference or lab dip under consistent lighting. Acceptable shade grouping and panel matching should be agreed before cutting.

Required testing should be identified before quotation because test methods and acceptance levels affect cost and schedule.

Every measurement should have a defined measurement point and method. Results may change depending on whether the garment is relaxed, stretched or measured after washing.

Tolerances should be assigned by measurement point rather than using one vague tolerance for the whole garment. Critical fit measurements normally require tighter control.

Pattern revisions, shrinkage allowance and grading rules must remain connected to the same approved measurement chart.

A digital mock-up approves the design direction, but it does not confirm how the decoration will behave on the actual fabric. A physical strike-off should be used for production approval.

• Artwork dimensions and placement.
• Color and thread references.
• Surface texture and hand feel.
• Embroidery density and backing.
• Stretch and wash performance.
• Acceptable bulk variation.

The technique should be selected around the fabric, artwork detail and intended use.

If confidentiality is required, an NDA should be arranged before complete artwork, unreleased collections or commercially sensitive information are shared.

The agreement should define ownership of buyer-supplied artwork, newly developed patterns, samples, molds and production files.

Buyers should also confirm whether branded samples or finished products may be photographed or used publicly.

The inspection plan can include incoming material checks, first-piece approval, in-line inspection and final inspection. Checks should be based on the approved sample and written specifications.

Critical, major and minor defects should be defined before inspection. If an AQL-based or independent third-party inspection is required, it should be added before production begins.

If goods fail inspection, shipment should be held while affected units are identified, corrected and reinspected.

The proforma invoice or purchase agreement should state the currency, payment stages, sample charges, production quantity, Incoterm, shipping point and included documents.

Production may require both the agreed payment and approval of the fabric, sample, artwork, этикетки и упаковка. Payment alone should not approve incomplete specifications.

Factory price, international freight, duties, taxes and destination clearance should be separated so each cost and responsibility is clear.
