Regarding your questions:\n\n1. **Indicative Price per Unit**: We do not provide price estimates at this stage. Accurate pricing can only be provided after our technical team analyzes your Tech Pack or Physical Sample and confirms the final quantities. However, I do need to know your target production price per style to proceed.\n\n2. **Development and Sampling Costs**: Development fees depend on the complexity of each style, and sample costs are typically charged at double the production price. These costs will be detailed once we have your Tech Pack.\n\n3. **Lead Times**: Sampling takes approximately 6-8 weeks, and bulk production takes 10-14 weeks after order placement. Please note that our total cycle is a minimum of 5 months, and this timeline ensures the high standards of Portuguese textile production.\n\n4. **Sustainable\/Recycled Fabric Options**: We hold the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification, which guarantees our commitment to environmentally and socially responsible production. The impact on pricing will depend on the specific materials chosen, which can be discussed further once we have your Tech Pack.\n\nPlease let me know your target production price per style, and we can proceed from there.\n\nLooking forward to your response.",
