In the future, we would also like to develop other\nhome textile products such as throws, cushions, table linen, kitchen linen\nand bath linen.\n\nWe are looking for a manufacturer able to produce according to our own\nspecifications, including:\n\n- Custom designs, patterns and colours\n\n- Custom dimensions adapted to the French market\n\n- Quality fabrics, particularly 100% cotton\n\n- Custom Pantone colours\n\n- Printed, dyed, yarn-dyed or woven designs depending on the collection\n\n- Matching pillowcases\n\n- Different finishing and closure options\n\n- Custom Maison & Saisons woven labels and care labels\n\n- Custom branded packaging\n\n- OEKO-TEX or other relevant textile certifications\n\n- Samples or prototypes before bulk production\n\nFor duvet covers, we are particularly interested in French sizes such as *220\n\u00d7 220 cm, 240 \u00d7 220 cm and 260 \u00d7 240 cm*, with the possibility of\ndeveloping other dimensions when needed.\n\nAs Maison & Saisons is a growing brand, we are looking for a partner who is\nable to work with relatively small initial production quantities. Our\nobjective is to test our collections with controlled stock levels and\nprogressively increase our volumes as the brand develops.\n\nBefore sending you our detailed product specifications, we would therefore\nlike to learn more about your manufacturing conditions.\n\nCould you please let us know:\n\n- What is the *lowest MOQ* you can offer for a first production order?\n\n- Is the MOQ calculated per product, per design, per colour or per size?\n\n- Can the MOQ be *split between different sizes and\/or colours*?\n\n- What would be the approximate unit price based on your minimum production\nquantity?\n\n- How does your pricing generally evolve for larger quantities on future\norders?\n\n- What fabrics, compositions, weights and thread counts do you offer for\nbed linen?\n\n- Can you develop exclusive colours and patterns according to our own\ndesigns and Pantone references?\n\n- What printing, dyeing and weaving techniques do you offer?\n\n- Can you produce a *sample or prototype before bulk production*, and what\nare the associated costs and lead times?\n\n- What are your usual production lead times?\n\n- Which certifications do your factory and fabrics currently have\n(OEKO-TEX, GOTS, BSCI, GRS, etc.)?\n\n- Can you provide custom woven labels, care labels and branded packaging?\n\n- What are your payment terms for a first order?\n\n- Do you ship directly to France, and what shipping terms do you usually\noffer?\n\n- Could you share your catalogue, fabric swatches, colour cards or examples\nof previous bed linen productions?\n\nIf your manufacturing capabilities and minimum quantities match our needs,\nwe would be happy to send you a detailed product specification sheet\nincluding our designs, dimensions, materials, colours, finishes and\npackaging requirements in order to receive an accurate quotation and\ndevelop our first sample.\n\nFor Maison & Saisons, product quality, flexibility and communication are\nvery important. We are looking for a manufacturing partner with whom we can\nbuild a genuine long-term relationship and progressively develop new\ncollections.\n\nThank you for your time. We would be very happy to learn more about your\ncompany and manufacturing capabilities.\n\nWe look forward to hearing from you.\n\nBest regards,\n*Adrien & Camille*\nFondateurs - Maison & Saisons\nmaisonsaisons.com",
