The \nbelow makes perfect sense.\n\nDoes the development department include the design of exclusive models? \nWould you have any partner you would recommend for the development of \ntechnical packs and physical samples?\nIs it possible to visit your manufacture at a later stage?\n\nAs I explained previously, I am building the project from scratch and would \nappreciate any of your recommendations.\n\nKind regards,\nAmel\n\n\n\nOn 27 Aug 2026, at 17:00, Matilde Azevedo  \nwrote:\n\nHi Amel,\n\nThank you very much for your contact.

I appreciate your interest in our services.\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n1. **Design of Exclusive Models:** We do not offer design services for creating exclusive models. Our focus is on manufacturing based on existing designs provided by clients.\n\n2. **Technical Packs and Physical Samples:** Unfortunately, we do not have specific partners to recommend for the development of Tech Packs or physical samples. However, many clients work with freelance designers or specialized agencies to create these assets.\n\n3. **Visiting Our Manufacture:** At this initial stage, we do not arrange visits. Once we receive all the required details and our technical team approves your project, they will contact you directly to discuss the possibility of a visit.\n\nTo proceed with your project, please provide:\n\n- Tech Packs or physical samples for each style.\n- Quantities per style and per color, in line with our MOQs.\n- Your target production deadline.\n- Your maximum target production price per style.\n\nOnce we have this information, we can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps.\n\nThank you, and I look forward to your response.\n\nBest regards.",
