Our minimum order is 30–50 pieces per style, per color, with 3 sizes mixed inside one color. Want fewer than 30 — say 10 pieces per style? That is possible too, at a higher unit price. Here is exactly how the rule works and why.
30–50 pieces per style, per color, 3 sizes — sizes mixed inside one color.
Possible — e.g. 10 pieces per style, per color, 3 sizes, at a higher unit price.
Pattern, grading and line setup are fixed costs — fewer pieces carry more of them.
3 inspections, AQL 1.0–2.0, mannequin try-on on every piece — identical at any quantity.
Our MOQ is 30–50 pieces per style, per color, with 3 sizes mixed inside one color. That means one design in one colorway, split across three sizes, starting at 30 pieces. Two colors of the same design are two runs of 30 pieces each — because each colorway is cut, sewn and inspected as its own production flow.
If you want to go under the floor — for example 10 pieces per style, per color, 3 sizes — we can do it. The garment will simply cost more per piece, and here is the honest reason: pattern making, grading, marking and line setup are fixed costs. Spread over 30 pieces they are barely visible; concentrated on 10, they raise the unit price by real amounts. You are not paying a penalty — you are carrying a larger share of the same setup.
The 30-piece floor is not about protecting our margin — it is about protecting the garment. Below a certain quantity, the factories that say yes are usually the factories that quietly skip the mock-up rounds, the fabric relaxation, or two of the three inspections. Our answer is different: the same 2–3 mock-up rounds, the same three inspections to AQL 1.0–2.0, the same mannequin try-on on every single piece — at 30 pieces, at 10, or at 300. The fitting standard does not scale down with quantity →
Most factories start at 100–300 pieces per style; below that, their line economics stop working. Our floor has run 30–150 piece orders since 2016 with multi-skill operators — small runs are our native mode, not a favor. And the first run is designed to grow: one client started with a small first collection and is now in an eight-year agreement with three new designs every month. Planning a first collection?

What is your exact MOQ?
30-50 pieces per style, per color, with 3 sizes mixed inside one color. For example: one dress design in navy, 30 pieces split across sizes S/M/L.
Can I order fewer than 30 pieces?
Yes — for example 10 pieces per style, per color, 3 sizes is possible at a higher unit price. Pattern making, grading and line setup are fixed costs; fewer pieces carry more of them per unit.
Does the MOQ apply per style or per order?
Per style and per color. Two colors of the same design are two runs, because each colorway is cut, sewn and inspected as its own production flow.
Why is your MOQ 30 and not lower?
Because below a certain quantity, keeping the real quality disciplines — mock-up rounds, fabric relaxation, three inspections — stops making economic sense for most factories, and the ones that accept it usually skip them silently. Our 30-piece floor is the lowest quantity at which we can hold every standard.
