-- From Sample to Bulk

Sample development
to bulk production --
one managed process.

We manage the complete development and production process. Each stage is confirmed before moving forward -- so the bulk garments match what was approved in sampling.

  1. Brief & Review

    We review your tech pack, reference images, or physical sample. We assess construction, fabric direction, and workmanship requirements.

  2. Fabric & Trim Sourcing

    We source and confirm fabric, zip, hardware, rib, labels, and all trims. Swatches and samples submitted for your approval before proceeding.

  3. Pattern & Sample

    Pattern is developed to your measurements and fit direction. Sample is produced and shared with detailed photos and measurement report.

  4. Revision & Approval

    Fit, construction, and workmanship feedback is addressed. Revised sample produced if needed. Bulk proceeds only after your written approval.

  5. Bulk Production & QC

    Bulk is produced against the approved sample. Key stages monitored. Final inspection covers measurements, workmanship, print, embroidery, and packaging.
