It\u2019s lovely to meet you too.\n\nI've attached a PDF with a few ideas for the tote bag I\u2019d like to develop \nfor Soft Disco. I\u2019m still deciding on the colour and logo font, but the \ndimensions, fabric and pocket layout are confirmed.\n\nAs this would be my first accessories launch, 400 units for one style would \nbe a larger commitment than I\u2019m currently planning. Is there any flexibility \nfor a smaller initial order, and what would be the lowest quantity you could \naccommodate?\n\nBefore committing to production, I\u2019d love to develop one sample to assess \nthe design and quality. Would the attached PDF provide enough information \nfor you to estimate the development fee and an indicative production price?\n\nCould you also clarify whether sample revisions can be made before placing \nthe production order, and how these would be charged?\n\nYou can find Soft Disco on Instagram at @soft.disco. Our website, \nsoftdisco.com  , is currently password-protected.\n\nThank you, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts!\n\nBest,\nGaia\n\n\nOn Fri, Oct 30, 2026 at 11:34\u202fAM Matilde Azevedo \n wrote:\n\n\n\n\nHi Gaia ,\n\n\n\n\nThank you very much for your contact. It\u2019s a pleasure to meet you and learn \nmore about your collection.\n\n\n\n\nAbsolutarget is a fashion supplier based in Vila do Conde, Portugal, \nspecialized in the development and production of high-quality and \nsustainable fashion collections. Our company is divided into two \ndepartments: Portugal Textile, focused on clothing and home textiles, and \nPortugal Shoes, dedicated to footwear and accessories.\n\n\n\n\nWith over 20 years of experience, we have supported fashion brands, \nstartups, and influencers in bringing their collections to life. From \nconcept development to material sourcing, pattern making and sizing, \nsampling, production, quality control, packaging, and delivery, we manage \nevery stage of the process.\n\n\n\n\nDelivery Times\n\n\u2022 Sampling: 8 weeks\n\n\u2022 Production: 10-14 weeks after the order is placed\n\nPlease note that factories close for holidays 2\/3 weeks in August and 2 \nweeks in December. Delivery times may also be affected by certain \ncircumstances such as supplier delays or fabric defects.\n\n\n\n\nQuantities(MOQ)\n\nOur general MOQs are 200\u2013300 units per style, with a minimum of 100 units \nper color.\n\nIf you wish to develop only one style, the MOQ is 400 units per style.\n\nPlease let us know if these quantities are workable for you.\n\n\n\n\nFees\n\n\u2022 Development fee: Price depends on each style - it includes a prototype \n(manufacturing, sourcing of materials, pattern making and sizing, quality \ncheck for approval). The development fee will be communicated to the client \nonce we have all the information about the collection.\n\n\u2022 Adjustments* (confirmation sample, PPS, shipping samples, etc.): Double \nprice (for example, if the production price is 20\u20ac, it will be charged 40\u20ac).\n\n\u2022 Prints and embroideries: Please note that there is an additional initial \ncost for setting up local and digital prints, all-overs and embroideries.\n\n\u2022 Payment method for development: 50% in advance and 50% before shipping the \nprototypes.\n\n\u2022 Payment method for production: 50% in advance and 50% before shipping.\n\n* Adjustments will only be made after you place the final order, until the \nfinal result is achieved.\n\n\n\n\nShipping\n\nWhile we do not directly handle shipping, we collaborate with trusted \nlogistics partners (ex-works). We can provide competitive shipping quotes \nfrom our partners or share their contact details if preferred. Clients are \nalso welcome to arrange their own shipping or provide their courier account.\n\nPlease note that we operate strictly on an EXW (Ex Works) basis. This means \nthat once goods leave our factory, we are not responsible for any damage, \nloss, or delays during transport.\n\n\n\n\nNext Steps\n\nTo move forward with the project analysis, it is mandatory for us to \nreceive:\n\n*\nTechnical packs or physical samples for each style you wish to develop\n\n*\nQuantities per style and per color, in line with the MOQs mentioned above\n\n*\nYour target production deadline and confirmation if the timelines above are \nsuitable\n\n*\nYour production price per style, indicated separately for each style\n\nThank you again for your time.\n\nWe look forward to hearing from you.\n\n\n\n\nHave a lovely day!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatilde Azevedo\n\n\nCommercial Assistant\n\nPortugal Textile & Portugal Shoes\n\n\n  \n  +351 91 508 51 06  \nmatilde@portugaltextile.com \n\n  \nwww.portugaltextile.com  \nwww.portugalshoes.com \n\n  \nRua da Zona Industrial de Alto Pega n.\u00ba 105, loja F, 4480-761, Vila do \nConde - Portugal\n\n$$SYSTEM NOTE: The user provided attached files (Soft_Disco__FW26__New_Ideas__3__6ae857a849ba3.pdf).
