Before production

Step 0 — Quote and sampling

Every order starts with your tech pack. We confirm feasibility, send a CMT quote, and make samples. Sample lead time: 2 working days after fabric and tech pack are received.

  1. Proto sample

    First version to check construction.

  2. Fit sample

    Adjusted to your fit comments.

  3. Size set

    Full size range to confirm grading.

  4. PP (pre-production) sample

    Final approved sample. Bulk matches this.

Six stages

Six stages of production

  1. Stage 01 / 06

    Fabric received

    Your fabric arrives at our store. We count rolls, check shade lots, and inspect for visible defects. Any issue is reported to you the same day.

    Check: Quantity, shade, defects.

  2. Stage 02 / 06

    Cutting

    Fabric is relaxed (knit) or spread flat (woven). Markers are planned for best yield. Panels are cut, numbered and bundled by size.

    Check: Panel measurement, ply alignment, bundle count.

  3. Stage 03 / 06

    Stitching

    Bundles move to the knit or woven line. Each operator handles one operation. In-line checkers inspect at [TBD] points per line.

    Check: Seam quality, stitch density, measurement.

  4. Stage 04 / 06

    Finishing

    Threads are trimmed. Garments are pressed, spot-cleaned if needed, and labelled with main, care and size labels.

    Check: Press quality, stains, label placement.

  5. Stage 05 / 06

    Packing

    Garments are folded, polybagged and packed into cartons as per your packing list. Cartons are marked and weighed.

    Check: Ratio per carton, marks, carton count.

  6. Stage 06 / 06

    Dispatch

    Cartons are handed to your forwarder or our transport for Karachi port or Lahore airport. Packing list and documents are shared the same day.

    Check: Final AQL 2.5 audit before loading.
