Client Requirements
1. Style Requirements: The dresses needed to feature bright, colorful designs, blending modern fashion with local cultural elements, suitable for weddings, parties, and other special occasions.
2. Fabric Requirements: The fabric had to be comfortable, breathable, durable, and suitable for the hot climate of Africa.
3. Quantity & Budget: The initial order was for 200 pieces, with each dress priced under $15.
4. Delivery Time: The production and delivery needed to be completed within 30 days.
Service Process
1. Requirement Confirmation & Style Recommendations
We had in-depth discussions with the client to understand local consumer preferences and needs. Based on this, we selected multiple dress designs, including printed dresses and loose long dresses, and provided images and samples for the client to choose from.
2. Supplier Selection & Sample Confirmation
Using our factory network, we contacted two experienced garment manufacturers and arranged for sample production. The client ultimately chose a supplier that offered better color designs and pricing.
3. Price Negotiation & Order Confirmation
After several rounds of negotiations, we successfully reduced the unit price to $14.5. An order contract was signed, clearly outlining the production schedule, quality standards, and delivery requirements.
4. Production Monitoring & Quality Control
Fabric Inspection: We ensured that the fabric met the client’s comfort and breathability requirements.
Production Progress Monitoring: We tracked production progress in real time to ensure timely completion.
Quality Testing: Third-party testing agencies conducted thorough inspections of the dresses, including size, color, and stitching quality.
5. Logistics Arrangement & Delivery
Once production was completed, we assisted the client with export clearance and arranged air freight to major African ports. We also provided the necessary documentation (invoice, packing list, certificate of origin) to ensure smooth customs clearance.
Final Results
1. Successful Delivery: The client received the goods within 30 days and expressed high satisfaction with the product quality and design.
2. Market Expansion: The dresses sold quickly in the local market and were well-received by consumers, leading the client to place an additional order for 300 pieces.
3. Long-Term Partnership: The client was very pleased with our service and expressed interest in continuing to work with us for future women’s apparel procurement.
