“They quoted in a day and shipped in five weeks. Our previous factory took five months to answer a colour question.”
“The CPC and labelling were ready before our first container. That alone saved us a month with the fulfilment centre.”

Start with 300 pairs in one colourway. Add styles once the sell-through is proven.
