We are now looking for a manufacturing partner to replicate them into production samples and expand our line into terry clothing pieces \u2014 shorts, tops, and cover-ups.\n\nThe Portuguese Textile stood out to us for your hands-on approach, your ability to advise at every stage of development, and your experience working with both established brands and new designers. That kind of partnership is exactly what we are looking for as we build Bathkissed.\n\nWe would love to learn more about your process, MOQs, and lead times.\n\nWould you be open to a brief introduction call or email exchange?\n\nThank you \u2014 looking forward to connecting.\n\nWarm regards,\nKaliroy De la Vega\nCo-Founder, Bathkissed",

Regarding your order, I need to clarify a couple of points:\n\n1. The total quantity of 800 pieces (400 units in two different sizes) meets our minimum order quantity requirement, which is excellent.\n2. However, I must inform you that our minimum order quantity is 200 units per style. Since you are looking to order two different sizes, this means you would need to confirm that you can meet the minimums for each style.\n\nRegarding your desired delivery date, I appreciate your urgency. However, please note that our standard production cycle is a minimum of 5 months to maintain the high standards of Portuguese textile production. This means that the earliest feasible date for delivery would be around early September, considering the current timeline and potential holiday impacts.\n\nLastly, I understand your target prices, but I must inform you that accurate pricing can only be provided after our technical team analyzes your Tech Pack or physical sample.\n\nCould you please confirm that you are willing to meet the minimum order quantities per style? Once I have this confirmation, we can proceed to the next steps.\n\nLooking forward to your response!",
