It is great to hear about your new men's athletic essentials brand.\n\nWe are a production facility, and we source the necessary fabrics for the styles our clients wish to produce.

Regarding certifications, we hold the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification, which guarantees our commitment to environmentally and socially responsible production.\n\nTo provide you with an accurate analysis for your project, I need the following details:\n\n1.  **Designs**: Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample to send us?\n2.  **Quantities**: Our minimum order quantity is 200-300 units per style. Does this align with your production plans?\n3.  **Timeline**: What is your desired delivery date for the collection?\n4.  **Target Price**: What is your target production price per style, indicated separately for each style?\n\nOnce I have these details, I can better assess your project.",

            "content": "Dear Matilde,\n\nThank you very much for your prompt reply.\n\nI am very interested in exploring the possibilities of working with your factory. At this stage, I am still in the early development phase of my brand, and for me the starting point is really the fabric selection. My view is that the type, weight, stretch, and overall performance of the fabric have a major influence on the design and construction of athletic apparel, so I would prefer to begin there before moving into final tech pack development.\n\nBecause of this, I do not yet have finalized tech packs available. I would first like to better understand what fabric options you can offer, as well as the different construction possibilities, finishing methods, seams, and overall product quality your factory is capable of producing.\n\nIn terms of quantities, your MOQ of 200\u2013300 units per style works well for me and is in line with how I would like to start.\n\nRegarding timeline, I would like to move forward as soon as possible, although I do not yet have a fixed production date. My expectation is that production would begin in the coming months, depending on the fabric selection, development of the tech packs, sampling, fit testing, and setting up the operational side of the business.\n\nAs for target pricing, I am still relatively open at this stage. Fabric quality and fit are very important to me, and I would prefer not to make too many compromises in the initial phase of the brand. I understand that this may result in a higher production price, which is something I am prepared to consider.\n\nAt the moment, I am mainly looking to understand what is possible with your factory. Would it be possible to receive fabric samples, or perhaps a development\/sample pack that gives me a better idea of your available fabrics, workmanship, and finishing options? I am of course happy to pay for samples or any relevant development materials, as I believe this is the right way to properly evaluate a potential production partner.\n\nSo while it is still early days, I am very eager and excited to get started, and I would be very interested to learn more about what you can offer.\n\nBest regards,\nMartijn\nSent from my iPhone\n\n> On 4 Mar 2026, at 17:04, Matilde Azevedo  wrote:\n> \n> Hello Martijn,\n> \n> Thank you for contacting us.

            "content": "Hello Martijn,\n\nThank you for your reply. I completely understand your focus on fabric quality as the starting point for a high-performance brand; that is a hallmark of great Portuguese manufacturing.\n\nWhile our team sources the specific fabrics once a project is defined, the best way for us to understand the construction and quality you are aiming for is through a reference. Since the tech packs are not yet ready, I was wondering, do you have a physical sample of a similar garment that you could send to our office? It doesn't have to be your own design, but rather something that represents the fit and feel you want to achieve.\n\nJust to get a better sense of the project scope for our initial analysis, could you give me an idea of your desired delivery date? And by the way, do you have a target production price in mind for each of the styles? Even a rough estimate is very helpful at this stage.\n\nOnce I have a clearer picture of these details, I can have our team properly assess your project.",
