I work as a product developer and director of production management. I handle designs from idea to finished samples, all the way through bulk production. This includes creating sketches, specs and technical design, as well as Bill of Materials and costing charts.

I can refer suppliers, vendors, and contractors needed. My network is extensive, so your product can be made just about anywhere in the world depending on the category, volume and price-point you are looking for. I am also able to maintain existing relationships established by brands prior to working together if you already have vendors and factories in place.

Please see below for a checklist and contact info to begin discussing working together.

NEW BRAND CHECKLIST

As you’re preparing to launch your brand, please make sure you have the following:

Resale Certificate

This is a wholesale license required to purchase fabrics and work with factories

Tax ID Number

If you plan to import any fabrics, a Tax ID number is required. Plus for tax purposes your business needs one, so you might as well set it up before you start anything else. You may easily apply within 30 seconds by visiting this link here

Shipping account

Please set up a Fedex account with a usable payment method attached. We use this to ship your raw materials where they need to go, as well as send samples and other goods.

Business bank account

You will need a business bank account set up to pay vendors and factories properly. If you have set up all of the above, you will be eligible to open a business checking account.

GROUNDWORK

These are the additional branches of a fashion business I do not handle but should be in place for any operating brand.
I can help refer in any of the following fields:
Graphic Design
Fit Model
Sales
Marketing
Customer Service
Shipping to Customers
Accounting

Looking forward to hearing from you! Please reach out to connect below
