A new swimwear brand was getting quotes through a US-based reseller. The reseller added a second margin to the factory price, and the actual production cost was unknown to the brand.
We connected the brand directly to a vetted factory and handled the woven label rebranding and branded packaging in-house. We ran the first sample round remotely, and sample lead time stayed at 12 days.
Removing the reseller’s markup brought the landed cost per unit down by 31%.
