            "content": "Dear Matilde,\n\n\nThank you for your quick and helpful reply.\n\nTo be transparent: we are currently in an evaluation phase and are speaking with a small number of Portuguese partners. The quality and hand-feel of the fabric is the single most important factor for us, so we need to be able to evaluate your fabric options before we commit to a project.\n\nWe are happy to pay for this step ? for fabric cuttings, a fabric book or a development sample in the relevant fabric, as well as shipping to Oslo.\n\nCould you please help us with the following:\nFabric\n\n  *\nWhich 2?3 piqu? qualities would you recommend for our brief (composition and weight)?\n  *\nWhat would it cost to receive fabric cuttings or a sample polo in these qualities, so we can evaluate the hand-feel before we commit?\n\nConditions for a project\n\n  *\nCost and lead time for a development sample, and whether this is credited against a later order\n  *\nYour minimum quantity per colour (can the 200 units per style be split across 3?4 colours?)\n  *\nAn indicative price range per piece at 200 and 300 units\n  *\nYour standard payment terms\n  *\nWho owns the pattern once it has been developed\n  *\nWhich factory in your network would produce the polos\n  *\nThe typical total time from project start to delivery\n\nFor reference, our planned volume is one style in 3 colours, approx. 300 pieces in total for the first order. We have no fixed deadline ? getting the fabric and fit right is more important to us than speed, and we expect delivery sometime in 2027. We are aiming for a production price of around EUR 25 per piece, depending on fabric quality.\n\nWe do not have a full tech pack yet, but we can provide a reference polo and a written specification once we move to the next step.\n\nThank you again for your time.\n\n\nBest regards,\n\nBj?rn Ove Liavaag\nCo-founder & Chairman\nDelvis Overskyet AS\nMobile: +47 906 93 577\nE-mail: bol@delvisoverskyet.no\nBygd?y all? 71, 0268 Oslo, Norway\nOrg. no. 938 491 399\n________________________________",

            "content": "Hello Bj\u00f8rn Ove Liavaag,\n\nThank you for providing more details about your project. I understand that evaluating the fabric quality is crucial for your decision-making process. However, at this stage, we do not provide fabric swatches or samples separately. Our process involves gathering all project details first to ensure commercial viability before moving forward.\n\nTo proceed, I need to confirm a few key points:\n\n1. **Tech Pack or Physical Sample:** You mentioned you can provide a reference polo and written specifications. This would be helpful for us to understand your requirements better.\n2. **Quantities:** You plan for one style in 3 colours, approximately 300 pieces in total. Could you confirm if this is the total quantity or per colour?\n3. **Target Price:** You mentioned aiming for a production price of around EUR 25 per piece. I will evaluate this against our internal reference.\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n- Our minimum order quantity for polo shirts is 200 units per style, and these can be split across different colours.\n- The cost of a development sample depends on the specific product and complexity of the design. The exact sample cost can only be confirmed after evaluating the Tech Pack or physical sample.\n- Our standard payment terms are 50% advance and 50% before shipping.\n- The pattern ownership and production details are typically discussed once the project is confirmed.\n\nPlease provide the reference polo and specifications when you're ready, and we can discuss the next steps.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards,  \nMatilde Azevedo  \nPortugal Textile",

            "content": "Dear Matilde,\n\nThank you for your clear answers ? this is very helpful.\n\nTo confirm: the approx. 300 pieces is the total quantity, split across 3 colours (approx. 100 per colour).\nThis first order is our launch order, intended to establish the brand in the market. Our plan is to build a small, carefully developed collection over time. If the polo is well received, natural next steps would be additional colours and a knitted quarter zip \/ midlayer, and we are looking for a partner we can grow with over several seasons.\nWe will send you a reference polo and a written specification once we have finalised them. Before we move to a paid development sample, it would be important for us to confirm two points:\n\n  1.\nThat the development sample will be made in the fabric you recommend for production, so we can evaluate the hand-feel.\n  2.\nThat Delvis Overskyet AS will own the pattern and grading developed for our product, as we will be paying for the development.\n\nWe will be in touch shortly.\nBest regards,\nBj?rn Ove Liavaag\nCo-founder & Chairman\nDelvis Overskyet AS\nMobile: +47 906 93 577\nE-mail: bol@delvisoverskyet.no\nBygd?y all? 71, 0268 Oslo, Norway\nOrg. no. 938 491 399\n________________________________",
