What This Is

We handle knitwear, woven garments and fabrics, from everyday jersey and woven styles to products with buyer-defined finishes, packing and repeat seasonal ranges. Design, development, sampling, lab testing and quality control are in-house. Production runs across our audited network. Programmes run through [India](/services/sourcing-india) or [Bangladesh](/services/sourcing-bangladesh); the production base is agreed at enquiry against the product, fabric, construction, quantity, certification and delivery brief. Minimums are set per style and confirmed at enquiry.

How It Works

### 01. Brief and feasibility

Send the tech pack, reference sample or product brief, with quantities, Japan destination and delivery target. Within 24 hours, we return feasibility, indicative cost, the minimum per style and next steps.

### 02. Development and sampling

We develop the fabric, construction, trims, testing plan and label artwork against the agreed brief. First samples are typically sent in 4 to 10 days for your review and approval.

### 03. Approval before bulk

You approve the sealed sample, measurements, finish, physical label and packing method. We record those approvals as the working standard before scheduled bulk begins.

### 04. Production and handover

Bulk takes 35 to 90 days after approval, depending on construction and quantity. We provide progress and inspection status, then assemble the agreed test evidence and export documents. We confirm the shipping scope with the quotation.

Prepared For Japan

## Labels, testing and inspection set before bulk.

We turn the approved specification into five controls and hand over the related evidence with the order.

### Label content

We set fibre composition, current care information and the Japanese labeler’s name plus address or telephone number in the artwork.

### Label arrangement

Care information uses the required durable form. Labeler details can use a permitted separate arrangement.

### Current care symbols

We use current JIS L 0001 symbols and recheck older artwork against the relevant 2024 changes.

### Testing evidence

Wash, shrinkage and colourfastness testing supports the care advice, with relevant reports in the handover.

### Order-specific inspection

Measurement tolerance, finish, folding and packing are agreed at the sealed sample and checked inline and before shipment to your agreed AQL.

We recheck it against current JIS L 0001 symbols, including the relevant changes in the 2024 revision, before approving new artwork.

Tolerance is agreed against the sealed sample, recorded for production and checked inline and at final inspection to your agreed AQL.
