Our look\nis koi-inspired: orange, black and cream, koi patterns and an ink-wash\nstyle, so custom prints and colour matching matter to us.\n\nCould you send your catalogue and let us know:\n- MOQ per style and per colour, and whether sizes can be mixed\n- prices for your main styles\n- custom options: all-over or placement prints (sublimation or digital),\nPantone colour matching, and the minimum for a custom colour\n- private label: woven labels, hangtags and packaging\n- sample cost and lead time, and bulk lead time\n\nSamples would ship to us in Australia. We don't have designs to send yet;\nwe're comparing makers first.\n\nThanks,\nChris Eickelman\nKoisauce Pty Ltd\nchris@koisauce.com",

I'm glad to hear that our guide was useful to you.\n\nTo assist you better, I need to gather some specific details about your project. Please provide the following information:\n\n1. **Product Category:** Could you specify which product you are most interested in starting with? For example, swimwear, lingerie, or streetwear.\n\n2. **Quantities:** What is the total quantity you are considering, and how many styles do you plan to create? Please note that our minimum order quantities (MOQs) for swimwear are typically 200 units per style.\n\n3. **Target Price:** What is your maximum target production price per style?\n\n4. **Desired Delivery Date:** When do you aim to have the products delivered?\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n- **MOQ:** Our minimum order quantity for swimwear is 200 units per style. Sizes can be mixed within this quantity.\n- **Custom Options:** We offer all-over and placement prints, including sublimation and digital printing. Pantone color matching is available, and the minimum for a custom color will depend on the specific requirements.\n- **Private Label:** We can provide woven labels, hangtags, and packaging as part of our services.\n- **Sample Cost and Lead Time:** The cost of a sample depends on the specific product and complexity of the design. The lead time for samples is typically 6\u20138 weeks, and bulk production takes 10\u201314 weeks after order placement.\n\nPlease let me know if you have any other questions or if you can provide the details mentioned above. Once I have this information, I can guide you further.\n\nBest regards,\n\nMatilde Azevedo",

            "content": "Hi Matilde,\n\nThank you for the reply and for setting out what you need.\n\n1. Product category: most likely swimwear first, in our own koi prints\n(all-over) and solid colours, with lingerie and streetwear later.\n2. Quantities: we're still early and comparing minimums across makers. We'd\nprobably start with two or three styles, so it helps to know your 200 units\nper style can be split across sizes.\n3. Target price: we haven't set one yet. A rough price range for a printed\nbikini set and a printed one-piece at 200 units would help us work it out.\n4. Delivery: no fixed date yet. We'd approve samples first.\n\nCould you also tell us the usual sample cost for a printed swim style, and\nwhether the 200 units can be split across two colourways?\n\nWarm regards,\nChris Eickelman\nKoisauce Pty Ltd\n\nOn Sun, Oct 18, 2026 01:55 PM, Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Chris,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out to us and for your interest in our services.\n> I'm glad to hear that our guide was useful to you.\n>\n> To assist you better, I need to gather some specific details about your\n> project.

Here's how we can proceed:\n\n1. **Product Category:** Starting with swimwear is a great choice, especially with your unique koi prints and solid colors.\n\n2. **Quantities:** Our minimum order quantity for swimwear is indeed 200 units per style, and you can split these across different sizes. However, the 200 units cannot be split across two colorways; each colorway would require a separate MOQ of 200 units.\n\n3. **Target Price:** I understand you haven't set a target price yet. Unfortunately, I cannot provide a rough price range at this stage. Accurate pricing depends on the technical specifications, materials, construction, and final quantities. However, knowing your maximum target production price per style will help us evaluate the project.\n\n4. **Delivery:** It's perfectly fine to approve samples first before setting a fixed delivery date.\n\nRegarding the **sample cost**, it varies depending on the complexity of the design and the specific product. We typically develop one sample per style for initial approval.\n\nPlease let me know if you have any other questions or if you can provide your target price once you have a clearer idea. This will help us move forward with evaluating your project.\n\nWarm regards,\n\nMatilde Azevedo",
