Common questions.
What should I compare when planning fulfilment?
Keep garment weight, packaged weight, production time, transit time, and exception handling separate. A useful comparison follows the same product and destination all the way to delivery.
Which details should I keep in my comparison?
Record the specific product, intended use, material or substrate, artwork, order quantity, destination, and any required approval. Comparing the same brief makes differences easier to assess.
What should I verify before placing an order?
Check the current product specification, artwork requirements, production and delivery terms, and after-sales process. Order a sample when the finished result will determine your decision.
