How Our Garment Import Process Works for Your Success

From initial inquiry to warehouse delivery, we manage every detail with attention to quality, timeline, and your specific requirements.
STEP 1: Requirements & Quotation

Requirements Analysis & Quotation

We begin by understanding your product requirements including garment type, fabric specifications, construction details, sizing, quantities, target pricing, and delivery timeline. Our team sources appropriate manufacturers, requests quotations, and provides you with competitive pricing options including FOB factory price, ocean freight estimates, and landed cost projections. We discuss minimum order quantities, payment terms, and production lead times to ensure alignment with your business needs.
STEP 2: Sampling & Development

Sample Development & Approval

Selected factories develop initial samples based on your specifications, tech packs, or reference garments. Samples are shipped to you for evaluation of fit, fabric quality, construction, and overall appearance. We coordinate revision rounds as needed, incorporating your feedback until samples meet your exact requirements. Once approved, production samples serve as the quality standard for bulk manufacturing, ensuring consistency throughout the production run.
STEP 3: Production Planning

Production Planning & Material Procurement

With approved samples and confirmed orders, factories procure fabrics, trims, and accessories according to specifications. Production schedules are established based on your delivery requirements and factory capacity. We review production plans, confirm material approvals, and establish quality checkpoints throughout the manufacturing timeline. Clear communication ensures all parties understand expectations, timelines, and quality standards before production begins.
STEP 4: Production & Inspection

Manufacturing & Quality Control

During production, our team conducts in-line inspections at critical stages to verify fabric quality, construction methods, measurements, and workmanship. We identify and address any quality issues immediately, preventing defects from continuing through production. Regular progress updates keep you informed of manufacturing status, timeline adherence, and any potential delays or concerns requiring attention.
STEP 5: Final Inspection & Shipment

Pre-Shipment Inspection & Container Loading

Before shipment authorization, comprehensive final inspections verify that finished garments meet all specifications and quality standards. Inspectors check random samples according to AQL standards, measuring garments, examining workmanship, testing functionality, and verifying packaging and labeling. Detailed inspection reports with photos document findings. Upon approval, containers are loaded under supervision and shipping documentation is prepared for customs clearance.
STEP 6: Import & Delivery

Ocean Freight & Customs Clearance

Containers are shipped via ocean freight to North American ports. We coordinate with customs brokers to prepare necessary import documentation and ensure smooth customs clearance. Shipment tracking information and estimated arrival dates are provided. Upon arrival and customs release, containers are delivered to your designated warehouse or distribution center, completing the import process with products ready for distribution or retail.
