We work with many type of suppliers, many of which we have long term relationships with. We deal with suppliers than can easily provide for large brands in terms of manufacturing garments as well as auto-loom wovens and high quality knits in different fibers.

But we take special pride to work also with micro-enterprises and artisan workshops all across the country.

Micro-enterprises are usually more suited for start-ups as their quantities are lower, however, they might lack certain certifications.

Minimums differ from suppliers and whether we are producing textiles or garments.

Basic minimum requirements for textiles are 300M for woven fabrics and 60Kg for knits. However, for certain fabrics we can lower minimums to 100M.

For garments and accessories it will depend with which manufacturer you want to produce. We can find a micro-enterprise that does only 25pcs x style, but as explained under certifications, that company would probably not be certified under GOTS or Fair Trade, for example.

When a production is finished depends on many factors. Only after your sample is ready for production can we provide with an estimate of how long will it take. It depends on number of styles, production quantity and the complexity of the garment or fabric.

We also need to take into consideration what is the current work load, holidays, festivities, etc.

We will evaluate quality control according if you are doing sampling or production with us. Whether it is garments or fabrics we will do quality control at different stages or the process.
