If there are any sample programmes, discounted development options, or opportunities to support emerging brands, I would be extremely grateful to learn more.\n\nMy goal is to build a long-term manufacturing partnership rather than simply place a one-off order, and I am looking for a factory that values quality, consistency and growth.\n\nThank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nKind regards,\n\nJames Facey\nFounder\nO-M Golf Ltd\n\nEmail: hello@o-mgolf.co.uk\nWebsite: WWW.o-mgolf.co.uk\nInstagram: @OMGolfLTD\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided attached files (image0_6a3178a266e8b.png, O-MGolf_Tech_Pack_6a3178a267251.docx, image1_6a3178a268036.jpeg).

As a new independent brand, my intention is to begin with a smaller launch collection and carefully scale production as demand grows.\n\n\n\nFor that reason, I do not feel I am yet at the stage where I can responsibly commit to the quantities required, particularly for the caps and socks.\n\n\n\nThat being said, I have been very impressed by your communication, capabilities and the quality of the products you manufacture. I would very much like to keep the conversation open and hope to revisit the opportunity of working together as O-M Golf develops and reaches higher production volumes.\n\n\n\nThank you again for your time, advice and consideration.
