Frequently Asked Questions

Everything international buyers ask before working with us. Don't see your question? Just ask — we reply within 24 hours.

What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

Our standard MOQ is 100 pieces per design for knitwear (t-shirts, hoodies, polos). Colors within a design can often be split (e.g., 50/50 across two colors). Woven garments start at 300 pieces per style. For uniform programs and larger promotional orders, we offer flexible annual supply arrangements.

How much do custom garments cost?

Pricing depends on fabric, weight (GSM), construction, decoration, and quantity. As a rough guide, basic custom t-shirts start around $2.50–4.50/pc, premium heavyweight tees $4–7/pc, and hoodies $8–15/pc at moderate quantities. Send us your specs for an exact itemized quote within 24 hours — no obligation.

How long does sampling take, and what does it cost?

Development samples take 7–10 days. Sample fees typically cover fabric and labor (usually $30–80 per piece depending on complexity) plus courier costs, and are commonly credited back against your bulk order. We share photo and video reviews so you can approve remotely without waiting for delivery.

What is the total production timeline?

From approved sample to shipped goods: typically 2–5 weeks of production depending on quantity and complexity. End-to-end (inquiry to delivery), most first orders complete in 4–8 weeks. Reorders are faster because patterns, specs, and fabrics are already locked.

What payment terms do you offer?

Standard terms are 30–50% deposit with order confirmation and the balance before shipment, via bank transfer (T/T). For larger or repeat orders we can discuss letters of credit and adjusted terms. We never ask for 100% upfront.

Can you match my target price?

Often, yes — and when we can't, we'll tell you honestly and suggest what would need to change (fabric weight, construction, quantity) to hit it. We'd rather lose a quote than win an order by cutting quality secretly.

Do you offer private labeling and custom packaging?

Yes — this is standard, not an add-on. Woven or printed neck labels, care labels, hang tags, polybags, and branded retail packaging are all produced to your brand guidelines. We also handle barcoding and FBA-compliant packing for Amazon sellers.

What printing and decoration methods do you offer?

Screen printing (plastisol, water-based, discharge, puff, high-density), DTF, DTG, all-over sublimation, and embroidery (flat, 3D, appliqué, patches). We recommend the best method for your artwork, fabric, and budget, and provide strike-offs for approval before bulk decoration.

How do you control quality?

Fabric is lab-tested before cutting (GSM, shrinkage, colorfastness). Inline QC inspects during sewing. Every order passes a final random inspection to AQL 2.5 with a photo report sent to you before shipment. Third-party inspections (SGS, Intertek, BV) are always welcome at your option.

How does shipping work?

We ship worldwide: express courier (DHL/FedEx, 3–7 days) for small orders, air freight (5–10 days) for mid-size urgent orders, and sea freight (25–35 days) for the best per-unit cost. We prepare all export documents and can quote FOB, CIF, or door-to-door DDP so you know your landed cost upfront.

Can I visit your factory?

Absolutely — buyers are welcome in Dhaka anytime by appointment. If you can't travel, we provide live video factory tours and detailed photo documentation of your production at every stage.

Is your manufacturing ethical?

Yes. Fair wages, regulated working hours, safe facilities, zero child labor, and responsible waste management. Bangladesh's export garment sector operates under strict international compliance standards, and our facilities are open to social compliance audits at any time.

I'm a startup with no tech pack. Can you still help?

That's exactly who we built our development service for. Send sketches, reference photos, or even a competitor's product you want to improve on. Our team creates the tech pack, recommends fabrics for your budget, and engineers the fit — you approve everything before production.

How do I get started?

Use our quote form or email us with whatever you have — an idea, sketch, or full tech pack — plus target quantity and timeline. You'll get a detailed quote within 24 hours, and from there we move straight to sampling.
