Please take the time to review the following information as this gives you a very clear and precise indication as to how we handle the Manufacturing Process. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. We would be more than happy to provide you with any additional information you need. We are at your service.
What we do for you :
The moment you place an order with us, we begin working full speed ahead to get your program up and running and delivered to you on time. Let's take a look at the process in detail:
| |
| |
Step 1 : Request for quotation (RFQ)
When we receive your RFQ, we consider carefully all the specifics and finishing requirements of the program. We carefully cost every aspect from the design to the finish and then present you with our quotation - usually within 24 hours after receipt of your RFQ |
| |
|
Step 2 : Samples
Once you accept our quote, we put together a sample package and send it out to you; which gives you a hands on indication of our quality and workmanship. (A valid courier account number will be required from you in order to send you our sample package. Samples are at no cost). |
| |
|
Step 3 : Order
After receipt of our samples and once you are satisfied with our quality and workmanship, you will then be required to place your order, giving final details. |
| |
|
Step 4 : Invoice
Upon receipt of your order, we will issue our Invoice to you. Once you accept our invoice, you will be required to sign and stamp same and send back to us via fax or email (please see Contact Us). |
| |
|
Step 5 : Payment
The next step is to transact payment. We accept any of the following payment methods:
1. Cash in Advance 100% via Wire Transfer
2. Irrevocable Letter of Credit at Sight |
| |
|
Step 6 : Pre-Production Samples (PPS)
When payment has been confirmed by our bankers (usually within 4-5 days), we will produce a full size set sample package containing the actual garment that will be produced according to your order. The PPS will be sent to you for review and approval.
A PPS Approval Form will be included in your package and once you approve the PPS, you will be required to sign and stamp the PPS Approval Form and send back to us either via fax or email (please see Contact Us).
If the PPS are not approved (though we have never had 1 incident of same), you will be required to provide us with a list of the reasons why they were not approved. After receipt of which, we will correct and adjust the PPS and re-submit to you for your approval.
This process will be repeated as is necessary to arrive at PPS that you are completely satisfied with.
We NEVER go into production until we have the following approvals from you:
• PPS Approval
• Color and Lab Dip Approval
• Label and Tag Approval
• Finishing Specs Approval |
| |
|
Step 7 : Production
Production begins immediately after we receive your approvals (please see Step 6). Daily Production Reports (DPR) are submitted to you either via fax or email. A Weekly Summary Report (WSR) is submitted every Saturday via fax or email .
Our production schedule is built around your expected delivery date. |

Step 8 : Shipping
After completion of production, we pack, create final packing list, sign off inspection and ship to the port of final destination you indicated in your order.
We work the most reputed shipping lines such as Maersk Sealand, PO Nedlloyd etc. As such, shipment can be tracked online 24 hours. Your will be provided with the following information which will assist you in tacking your shipment online:

• Clean On Board Ocean Bills of Lading
• Packing Lists
• Certificate of Origin

All original documents will be sent by overnight courier directly to you or your bankers depending on mode of payment.

|
Step 10 :Delivery
We send you a reminder notice at least 7 days before your shipment arrives, reminding you to lodge your entry with the local customs in time to clear your shipment.
Upon arrival of the shipment at your warehouse an officer of the SGS will be there on site to inspect the unpacking of the container on our behalf to ensure that you have received your shipment exactly according to your order and in good condition. |
