Our minimum for t-shirts is 200 units per style (with a minimum of 100 per color).\n4.  **Timeline:** Our standard lead time for development and production is approximately 5 months. Based on the current date, the earliest we could schedule delivery would be for the end of July 2026.\n5.  **Target Price:** What is your target production price per style?\n\nOnce I have this information, I can confirm if we are the right fit for your project and guide you on the next steps.

In answer to your questions please see\nanswers below:\n\n\n1. *Brand Website:* *This is still in the developmental phase*\n2. *Designs:** I would be very happy to share the physical samples with you\nthat we currently have, outlining production changes. The tech packs are\nbeing developed though I would also be very keen to work with this with\nyour developmental team as well.*\n3. *Quantities:* *We would love to start with 100 white and 100 black per\nsku style, across 3 sizes - S, M, L - with future expansion to 5 size\noptions. (Though this qty is also pending your replenishment lead times\nthat we can work with together).*\n4. *Timeline:* Our standard lead time for development and production is\napproximately 5 months. Based on the current date, the earliest we could\nschedule delivery would be for the end of July 2026. *This is perfect and\nalso gives time for optimtimise our DTC strategy, the website and\nfinalise branding - all of which is in motion but I would like to have it\nto as close to perfection as possible for the brand launch.*\n5. *Target Price:** \u00a375 - 95 - which is why we are specifically looking for\na pima or supima cotton or an innovative lyocell and pima cotton blend. *\n\n*I* truly would love to work with you and your teams on this project and\nthis brand. We have some exciting initial funding, with a steady growth\nplan and expansion strategy over the next 10 years. But fundamental to all\nof that in my eyes is getting the core pillars of this brand absolutely\nright through finding the right partner and I think that is you. I really\nbelieve there is a gap in the womenswear market for the most exquisite,\nsustainable and innovative essentials and basics that borderline's the\nluxury market and sits within that white space, lasts, allows the female\nbody the change and yet stays true to it's feel and holds form.\n\nDo let me know your thoughts - and like I said, happy to begin this process\nvia email and zoom but am also more than happy to come and see you in\nperson as we work together I hope.\n\nThank you again for your time.\n\n\nKimberleigh x\n\nOn Tue, Feb 10, 2026 at 9:02\u202fAM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Kimberleigh,\n>\n> Thank you for getting in touch and for your interest in producing with us\n> in Portugal.
