I've received the reference images for your hoodie and sweatpants set, and they look great.\n\nTo provide you with an accurate analysis for your project, I need the following details:\n\n1.  **Quantities**: What is the quantity you are planning to produce per style for the bulk order? Please note that the hoodie and the sweatpants are considered two separate styles, and our minimum for this type of product is 200 units per style.\n2.  **Timeline**: What is your desired delivery date? Our standard production cycle, from confirming the prototype to final delivery, takes about 5 months. Since this period includes our factory holidays in August, the earliest feasible delivery would be around October 2026. This timeframe allows us to ensure the high quality that Portuguese manufacturing is known for.\n3.  **Target Price**: What is your target production price per style, indicated separately for the hoodie and the sweatpants?\n\nRegarding your question about custom branding, please be aware that custom neck labels and hangtags are sourced and sold separately.\n\nOnce I have these details, I can better assess your project.",

It's a very wise approach to start with smaller quantities while developing a new brand.\n\nFor brands that are not yet ready to meet our custom production minimums, we often suggest exploring our partner service which specializes in high-quality, pre-made garments with lower minimums. You might find it suitable for your initial launch. You can find more information here: www.privatelabelclothes.com\n\nOf course, we would be delighted to reconnect and discuss your project again whenever you are ready to scale up to 200 units per style.\n\nThank you for considering us, and I wish you the very best with the launch of FATIMA.",
