Learn how fabric, labor, order distribution, and delivery scope make up the cost of a shirt; Compare offers on equal footing.
Why is unit price alone not enough?
Even if two quotes appear close to the same figure, they may involve different fabric quality, accessories, testing, packaging or delivery responsibilities. The comparison should be made on the same product specification and not just in the price column.
Main components of cost
Fabric consumption and supply condition are a strong factor in most projects; But model complexity, visible seams, pattern matching and special accessories also change operation time.
- Fabric price, width, consumption and wastage
- Sewing operations and special workmanship
- Button, interlining, label and packaging
- Model-color-size distribution
- Sample, testing and delivery responsibilities

Each line should include the material description, currency, tax status, payment condition, deadline assumption and validity date. The alternative fabric offer should not be evaluated as if it were the same product as the main offer.
