OEM And Private Label Production
Everything that turns a factory style into your product: your labels, your size chart, your packing, your approved sample as the reference.
Stage by Stage
Where Orders Break And What Is Done About It
Brief
Problem. Buyers send a photo and a quantity, and the gap between the two causes every later dispute
How it is handled. The enquiry is turned into an item number, a size chart and a colour reference before anything is quoted
Labelling
Problem. Own-label is treated as an add-on and gets dropped on small orders
How it is handled. Neck, care and size labels are part of the build from the first production run, not a later stage
Grading
Problem. A factory default grade does not match how your customer is shaped
How it is handled. Your own chart is used to regrade the pattern before sampling
Sampling
Problem. Bulk gets cut against a screenshot and nobody can say what was agreed
How it is handled. One physical sample per style is approved and retained as the reference for bulk and for every repeat
Production
Problem. Measurements drift over a run and only show up at the receiving warehouse
How it is handled. Bulk is checked against the approved sample rather than against a generic chart
Packing
Problem. Stock arrives needing repacking before it can be sold
How it is handled. One garment per OPP bag as standard, with retail bagging, hangtags and barcodes when artwork is supplied

OEM And Private Label Production Questions
What do you need from me to start
The styles or item numbers you want, your size chart if you have one, label and packing artwork, and the quantity you can commit to.
Is own-label available on the first order
Yes. Labelling and packing are built into the run rather than added once volume grows.
Who keeps the approved sample
You keep one and we keep one. Repeat runs are measured against it, which is what makes a repeat comparable.
Can you work to my measurement tolerance
Send the tolerance you work to with your size chart and it is applied at the sample stage so you can check it before bulk.
Start With a Sample
Send what you have: item numbers, artwork, a size chart, or just the quantity. The first reply tells you what is missing before it costs you a run.
