Manufacturing Built Around Your Model
Every brand comes to manufacturing from a different place — a first drop, a private-label line, a streetwear label, an activewear range, or a sustainability commitment. These are the ways we manufacture, matched to how you actually work.
Sixteen programmes is more choice than anyone wants to read through, so the useful question is not “which one is best” — it is which constraint is currently stopping you. Almost every buyer who contacts us is blocked by one of six, and each one leads somewhere different.
If the thing stopping you is quantity
Most factories that quote a small minimum are quoting it per colour, or per size, or before fabric minimums are applied — so a "50-piece" order becomes three hundred by the time it is costed. Ours is 50 pieces per style for knitwear, 100 in peak season, and colours can usually be split inside that same minimum rather than multiplying it.
- manufacturing from 50 pieces per style is the general case, and where the minimum is explained in full.
- low-MOQ hoodies run on 450 GSM brushed fleece we hold in stock, so there is no custom knit run to amortise.
- garment dyeing from 25 pieces per colour lets you test four colourways for less than most factories' single-colour minimum.
- capsule collections spread one minimum across a tee, a hoodie and a jogger instead of stacking three separate ones.
If the question is whose brand it carries
Private label, white label, and cut-and-sew are not tiers of quality — they are different answers to who owns the pattern and who carries the risk. Which one you want usually depends on whether you have a fit you are protecting.
- private label manufacturing builds the garment under your labels, from your fabric and fit specification.
- private label t-shirts narrow that same programme to the one garment most brands start with.
- heavyweight and oversized tees at 320+ GSM are a construction specialism rather than a branding model — the weight buyers can feel through the polybag.
- streetwear production covers boxy blocks, matching sets, and the finishing details that separate a drop from a blank.
If you are sourcing for a business model rather than a product
Ecommerce, wholesale and offshore sourcing each change what has to happen after the garment is sewn — packing, barcoding, freight, and who holds the stock. Those are production decisions, so they belong in the brief rather than being discovered at shipment.
- manufacturing for ecommerce and DTC brands covers retail-ready packing, FNSKU and barcode compliance, and per-unit polybagging.
- wholesale and distribution supply is for importers and resellers buying to a price point and a delivery window.
- sourcing overseas without a 1,000-piece minimum is the page to read if offshore manufacturing has been quoted to you as an all-or-nothing commitment.
If you are buying for an organisation, not a brand
Schools, hospitality groups and corporate teams buy on a different clock: sizing has to be surveyed, budgets are approved once a year, and the delivery date is usually fixed by a term start or a site opening rather than by a marketing calendar.
- workwear and uniform programmes covers corporate shirts and polos, hospitality, and healthcare kit built to survive industrial laundering.
- uniform programmes for international schools is the route for an institution buying direct — the minimum stated against a size run, the term calendar worked backwards from your intake date, and an honest answer on the school size below which direct buying stops paying.
- school uniform manufacturing is the product side of that — crest consistency, graded size runs, and child-safe finishing.
- scheduling a uniform order backward from term start is the part that goes wrong most often, so it is worth reading before you set a delivery date.
If you already know the category
Three programmes exist because the category genuinely changes the production, not because the keyword was available.
- activewear and sportswear runs on moisture-wicking knits with flatlock construction, which is a different machine set-up to a jersey tee.
- hats and caps is headwear rather than garment production — panels, closures, and embroidery rather than pattern and fit.
- sustainable and organic production is also where we set out plainly what we can and cannot certify, which matters more than the claim itself.
If there is no garment yet
A sketch, a tech pack, or a reference garment you want matched is enough to start. Sampling runs 7–10 days and the cost is credited against your bulk order, so the first real decision is not a production commitment.
- sampling and prototyping is where that starts, with the sample fee published rather than quoted on request.
- how to create a tech pack is worth reading first if you have never written one — it is the single biggest determinant of whether sample one is close.
What does not change between them
The programme you enter through changes the brief, not the factory. These are the terms behind every one of them, and they are the same figures we quote — published here rather than held back until you ask.

ExploreFrequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a solution and a product category?
A product category — t-shirts, hoodies, school uniforms — describes what is being made. A solution describes how you are buying: the minimum you can commit to, whose label goes in the neck, and what has to happen to the garment after it is sewn. Most buyers need one of each, which is why the two are cross-linked rather than merged.
Do the minimums change between these programmes?
Our standard minimum is 50 pieces per style for knitwear — t-shirts, hoodies, polos, sweatshirts, joggers — rising to 100 in peak season. Woven garments start at 300 pieces per style. Sweater-knit garments — cable knits, cardigans and fine-gauge pullovers made on flat-bed machines rather than cut from jersey — start at 500 pieces per style. Colours can usually be split within a single design, so a 50-piece run does not have to mean 50 identical units.
Can I combine more than one of these?
Yes, and most orders do. A capsule collection can be private label, produced for an ecommerce brand, and garment dyed — those are four pages describing one order. The programmes are entry points into the same factory, not separate services with separate pricing.
How long does production take once a programme is chosen?
Bulk production runs 12–15 days for orders up to 2,000 pieces, counted from approved sample and confirmed deposit. Allow 25–35 days end to end, since sampling and approval come first. Peak season can extend this — we confirm dates at order confirmation.
