How orders move

One order. Six stages. All tracked.

Same pipeline, 100 pieces or 100,000. Tap a stage.

Stage 01 · Design & tech pack
Spec-ready in days, not weeks.

Sketch or tech pack in. Factory-ready spec and real cost out.

Typical duration — 3–5 days
Tech pack creation or refinement
Fabric and trim recommendation
Costing estimate within 48 hours
Stage 02 · Sampling
Prototypes tracked against the original spec.

Every sample measured against its spec — revisions converge.

Typical duration — 7–10 days
Proto sample, fit sample, size set
Up to two rounds of revision
Courier tracked to your office
Stage 03 · Material sourcing
Mill-direct pricing, not broker mark-ups.

Mill-direct fabric, inspected before it's cut.

Typical duration — 10–15 days
Lab dip and colour approval
Bulk fabric booking and inspection
Certification documentation
Stage 04 · Production
Weekly status reports, without being asked.

Cut count, sewing, finishing — in writing, weekly. Risks flagged same-day.

Typical duration — 15–30 days
Weekly production status reports
In-line AQL inspection
Any risk flagged within 24 hours
Stage 05 · Quality control

Nothing packs until AQL 2.5 passes and you've seen the report.

Typical duration — 1–2 days
Final AQL 2.5 inspection
Photo and measurement report
Sign-off required before packing
Stage 06 · Export & delivery
Door to door, or port to port.

Docs, freight, tracking — ours until it's in your warehouse.

Typical duration — 7–25 days by mode
Export documentation and customs
Freight forwarding — sea or air
Delivery tracking end to end
Quality systems

How we catch problems before they become yours.

Four systems in parallel on every order.

01
AQL inspection

In-line, end-line and pre-shipment sampling to your AQL. No guesswork.

02
4-point fabric grading

Every roll graded before cutting.

03
DHU tracking

Defects tracked daily, by line. Issues surface mid-production.

04
Lab testing

Shrinkage, colourfastness, tensile — third-party labs, pre-bulk.

Factory qualification

How a factory earns a place in our network.

Five gates before a factory touches your order — and every season after.

G1
Capability audit
Machinery and experience assessed on the floor — not a brochure.
Fails here → never enters the network
G2
Compliance verification
Labour, facility and certification status — WRAP-level criteria.
Fails here → remediation plan or removal
G3
Trial production run
A monitored pilot order. Measured on defects, timing, communication.
Fails here → no buyer orders allocated
G4
Systems integration
Reporting, escalation and documentation aligned with our layer.
Fails here → capsule orders only
G5
Continuous scoring
Every order feeds a live score. Allocation follows it.
Slips here → volume reduced until it recovers

The best way to evaluate a factory is to give it a small order.

Start with a capsule. Judge the reporting. Then decide the programme.
