Clear answers before you commit to sampling or production

To get a useful first reply, send artwork or reference photos, target size, estimated quantity, target market, packaging needs, and deadline. With that information, we can usually advise MOQ, sample route, lead time, and likely compliance considerations more clearly.

Many projects start at around 500 pcs per design. For some first orders, trial quantities from 300 pcs may be possible after we review size, materials, construction, and packing requirements. The final MOQ depends on the real project rather than one blanket number.

At RFQ stage, it is better to separate sample lead time from bulk lead time. Many custom samples take around 2-7 days, while bulk production is often 7-30 days after sample approval and deposit. Final timing depends on quantity, materials, packaging, and season.

Yes. Buyers often start with concept art, character sheets, reference photos, or a physical sample. We review whether the design is practical for sampling and production, then advise the best development route.

Sample review normally confirms shape, fabric, color, embroidery, accessories, labels, and packaging direction. This stage matters because clear comments and sign-off help prevent avoidable changes once bulk materials are prepared.

Sample fees depend on size, materials, accessories, and construction difficulty. Shipping is usually charged separately. Revision scope is discussed after the first sample review, and for many programs the sample fee can be credited back or partially offset against a confirmed bulk order.

Quality control usually includes material review, sample approval checkpoints, in-line inspections, finishing checks, and pre-shipment review. If the product requires needle or metal detection or other special controls, those points should be confirmed in the project plan.

We treat these as product or market requirements, not as blanket factory certificates. The correct route depends on the item, age grading, destination market, packaging, and buyer rules, so it is best to confirm these details before bulk production starts.

If your buyer, brand, or retailer requires third-party inspection, buyer-specific audit steps, or extra documents, share the requirement early. That helps us align the project plan, production checkpoints, and document preparation around the real order.

Shipping discussions can include sea freight, air freight, express delivery, and terms such as EXW, FOB, CIF, or DDP depending on destination and order size. Carton planning, labeling, and handoff requirements should be confirmed before shipment.

A common arrangement is 30% deposit before production and 70% balance before shipment, usually by T/T. Final terms depend on order value, buyer profile, and the project arrangement.

Before shipment, buyers usually confirm approved sample status, final quantity, packaging details, carton marks, destination documents, shipping method, and inspection or lab requirements. Clarifying these points early helps reduce last-minute delays.
