There is =\nno\nwebsite or brand name yet.  It wouldn't make any sense to have a website\nwhile I still have no supplier and no product, right?  I first have to do\nresearch and determine if I can actually find a manufacturer who can assist\nme.\n\n2. My target market is the USA.\n\n3. They are simple bed pillow covers that I need in two different sizes,\nbut the same style (I have two ideas, of which I will choose only one).  Do\nI actually need Tech Packs?  I need only two pillow cover sizes:\nStandard\/Queen (which fits approximately 80% of beds) and King.  I can send\nyou photos of what I have in mind, or even samples if needed.  Please see\nscreenshots attached.\n\n4. I will start with your absolute MOQ and see how it goes.\n\n5. The target price is as low as possible, of course.  And like I said, I\nwant only two different sizes and one style, nothing fancy, nothing\ncomplicated.  I want to keep everything as straight-forward and simple as\npossible.\nIt's a new startup business that I am planning.\n\nI hope Portugal Textile will be able to assist me in this project - that\nwould be great!\n\nKind Regards,\nIzak\n\n\n\n\n\nOn Thu, Jun 4, 2026 at 9:31=E2=80=AFPM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Izak,\n>\n> Thank you for contacting us.
