            "content": "Hello,\n\nMy name is Yannic Blattmann, and I am currently developing a handbag\nconcept for a new brand.\n\nI am looking for a manufacturing partner who can help develop the product\nfrom scratch, including prototyping and later production.\n\nThe concept is a clean, premium base handbag that should already look\nbeautiful and fully wearable on its own. In addition, I want to develop\ninterchangeable accent panels in different colors and materials so that the\ncustomer can customize the bag depending on their outfit or style.\n\nThe most important points for this project are:\n- the base bag must look elegant and complete even without any added panels\n- the interchangeable parts must fit precisely and feel high quality\n- the system should look clean and not appear cheap or overly technical\n- I would like to start with one main bag model and a small selection of\ninterchangeable color accents\n\nI would like to know whether this is something you could help develop, and\nwhat you would need from me in order to evaluate the project properly. I\ncan provide sketches, concept images, dimensions, and a more detailed\ndescription of the interchangeable parts.\n\nThank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nBest regards,\nYannic Blattmann",

Designs\nAt the moment, I do not have a physical sample yet. I currently have\nconcept sketches and visual mockups of the bag, and I can also prepare more\ndetailed dimensions and a technical overview if needed.\nThe concept is a structured premium base handbag that looks complete and\nelegant on its own, with interchangeable exterior accent panels in\ndifferent colors and materials.\n\n3. Quantities\nFor a first production run, I am currently considering approximately\n100-150 units of the main bag model, depending on MOQ, pricing, and\nfeasibility.\n\n4. Timeline\nMy timeline is flexible, but ideally I would like to start development and\nprototyping as soon as possible. If the sample development goes well, I\nwould aim for a first production run in Q3 or Q4 2026.\n\n5. Target Price\nAt this stage, my target production price for the base handbag would\nideally be below EUR 60 ex-factory, depending on materials, construction,\nand MOQ.\nThe interchangeable accent parts would be a separate additional item. If\nyou believe another price range would be more realistic for this type of\nproject, I would be very happy to hear your guidance.\n\nPlease let me know if you would like me to send the concept sketches and\nvisual references in my next email.\n\nThank you again, and I look forward to your feedback.\n\nBest regards,\nYannic Blattmann\n\n\nMatilde Azevedo  schrieb am Fr. 27.
