Step 1: Define Your Requirements

• Determine what type of clothing you want to produce, along with specific materials, styles, and production volume.

Step 2: Research Potential Manufacturers

• Look for manufacturers online by searching on Google
• Attend trade shows or fashion expos to meet manufacturers in person, if possible.
• Check industry forums and LinkedIn platforms for recommendations and reviews

Step 3: Evaluate Capabilities and Expertise

• Review the manufacturer’s portfolio to see if they have experience producing the type of clothing you need
• Ask about their production capacity, lead times, and quality control processes.
• Confirm they can meet your specific needs, such as fabric sourcing or customisation options.

Step 4: Request Samples and Assess Quality

• Contact your shortlisted manufacturers and request samples. Pay attention to stitching, material quality, and attention to detail.
• Evaluate how well they communicate and how willing they are to accommodate your requirements.

Step 5: Discuss Costs, Timelines, and Contracts

• Get clear on pricing, minimum order quantities, and payment terms.
• Establish timelines for sampling, production, and delivery.
• Review and sign a contract that outlines all expectations, responsibilities, and terms.

Step 6: Start with a Small Production Run

• If possible, begin with a small batch to test the manufacturer’s quality and reliability.
• Use this run to gauge their consistency, communication, and adherence to deadlines.
