Are photos and price enough when choosing a shirt manufacturer?
Both are useful, but sample approval, quality recording, and change communication are also important. Have the same product offered under the same conditions and ask who made which decision during the production process.
Get to know ErtenSeparate product expertise and capacity
Overall production capacity alone does not indicate technical experience in a particular shirt structure. How the candidate manufacturer approaches fabric, pattern, collar-cuff and visible workmanship details should be examined.
Evaluation questions
A good evaluation is not based on company presentation alone; It questions how the sample, change, approval and nonconformance processes are carried out with real examples.
- How is technical file and sample feedback given?
- How is the essential reference to production maintained?
- How are intermediate and final checks recorded?
- How is material change approved?
- When and how is deadline risk reported?
Data transfer when changing manufacturer
The old sample alone may not be sufficient. The size chart, measurement method, fabric and accessory codes, tolerances, packaging information and past changes should be transferred to the new evaluation together.
Scope of delivery for international buyer
Specify the delivery country and delivery point in the manufacturer's evaluation at the first meeting. Prices from different manufacturers cannot be compared on the same basis unless packaging, export documentation, transportation, import and insurance responsibilities are covered by the written offer. The same evaluation framework can be used for each target country; The delivery model to be applied is clarified according to the order.
- Delivery country and destination warehouse
- Delivery method and responsibilities
- Sample and mass production shipment plan
- Product and label expectations of the target market
