Do you offer priority production scheduling or framework agreements for long-term partners?

Yes. For established brands and global retailers that need guaranteed capacity all year, we offer strategic framework agreements. By signing an annual capacity retainer, we lock in dedicated production lines and raw material buffers for your brand. In practice that means two things most suppliers cannot promise: pricing that does not drift when fabric markets move, and priority fast-track delivery when the rest of the industry is queuing for line time.

What a framework agreement actually secures

• Reserved line capacity - a defined monthly or seasonal output held for your brand, so peak-season demand does not push you to the back of the queue.
• Raw material buffers - core fabrics, trims and elastics held in stock against your programme instead of being re-sourced per order.
• Stable pricing - cost structure agreed for the term, protecting your margin planning from yarn and freight volatility.
• Priority scheduling - fast-track slots for mid-season replenishment and urgent drop dates.
• Continuity of spec - same fabric lots, same colour standards and the same construction file across every release.

Who it suits

Framework agreements make sense when your annual volume is predictable enough to reserve against - DTC brands scaling beyond launch phase, wholesalers running seasonal drops, retailers with fixed replenishment cycles. For a first collection, the standard route is better: place a trial order at our flexible MOQ, validate sell-through, and move to a retainer once your run rate is clear. Both are the same factory; the difference is whether we hold capacity exclusively for you.

How the terms are set

A retainer is built from your forecast, not a template: expected pieces per category across the year, peak months, fabric families, and the replenishment pattern you need. Our team then proposes reserved capacity against your plan, with review points so the agreement flexes as your brand grows. Because we run two factories covering 20,000 m² with a combined monthly output of 500,000 pieces, reserved capacity stays genuinely reserved instead of being raided when a bigger order arrives.
