MOQ & Sampling

Use the standard working rules to plan your brief, then confirm the conditions for your specific garment.

Start with the standard references

300 pcs / style

Standard minimum order quantity. Colour and size splits remain subject to material and workmanship minimums.

7–10 working days

Standard sampling after complete information and the applicable sample payment. Complex development is assessed separately.

30–45 calendar days

Standard bulk-production reference after Bulk Production Release, rather than the first enquiry date.

How the sample stage works

Can sizes and colours be mixed?

The standard MOQ is per style. Reasonable colour and size splits depend on the actual fabric, trim and workmanship minimums.

Are first samples charged?

New-customer first samples are charged. Any credit or refund against the first bulk order follows the agreed terms; international sample courier costs are borne by the customer.

When does sampling begin?

The ordinary 7–10 working-day reference starts after the required information is complete and applicable sample fees are received. Priority and complex projects are assessed separately.

What happens after sample approval?

The approved sample and final written specification become the basis for the bulk-production version.

HOW THE MINIMUM WORKS

300 pieces per style is not 300 pieces per colour

The standard minimum is counted per style. How far that quantity can be divided across colours and sizes depends on the minimums of the fabric, the dyeing, the trims, the embroidery, the printing, any special process and the packaging — so the split is confirmed against the actual garment rather than assumed from the standard figure.

SAMPLE CHARGES

When a sample is charged, and when it is not

First project

The first sample is charged, and the international courier cost is borne by the customer. Once the first bulk order is confirmed, that first sample charge can be credited against the order payment in line with the agreed terms.

After a bulk order

Subsequent ordinary samples for an existing customer are not charged for sampling, though international courier costs continue to be borne by the customer.

Outside the ordinary scope

Free sampling is not unlimited development. Deep ODM, a large number of styles, repeated rounds of major revision, special materials or processes, additional testing and development beyond the usual scope are assessed separately.

When the clock starts

The sampling reference begins once the required information is confirmed and the applicable sample payment has been received.

REVISIONS

One revision is development, a change of direction is not

One revision within the agreed scope after the first sample is part of normal development. Changing the main fabric, the construction or the core workmanship is a new piece of work: it is re-costed and re-scheduled before another sample is made, and the change is confirmed in writing rather than absorbed.
