            "content": "Hi,\n\nMy name is Yoann, founder of MYRROW, an independent streetwear brand from\nSwitzerland. We are developing our first release and looking for a\nmanufacturing partner we can grow with long term, not just a one off\nsupplier.\n\nI will be upfront: we are an early stage brand. Our first production run\nwill be small, but we are building this carefully and for the long run, and\nwe would rather start small with the right partner than big with the wrong\none.\n\nI am reaching out to you because of your Portuguese production network and\nyour work with international brands since 2007.\n\nFor our first release we are developing three pieces:\n\n- Denim pants, 5 pocket, straight or relaxed fit, mid heavy weight denim,\ncustom dark wash, one colourway, sizes W28 to W36\n- Heavyweight t-shirt, 250 to 280 gsm, boxy fit, one colourway, screen\nprint plus embroidery details\n- Zip up hoodie, heavyweight fleece around 400 to 450 gsm, boxy fit, one\ncolourway, metal zipper, embroidery details\n\nThese are not basic blanks. Construction, custom hardware and finishing\ndetails matter to us. Our tech packs will be ready in early to mid\nSeptember, and our first drop is planned for end of March 2027.\n\nTo see whether we could be a fit, it would help if you could share:\n\n1. Whether you work as an agency coordinating partner factories, or as a\nfactory yourself. Either is fine, we simply want to understand who produces\nour garments\n2. Your MOQ per style for a single colourway across mixed sizes\n3. Sample cost and sample lead time\n4. Bulk production lead time after sample approval\n5. Indicative pricing at 80 to 120 pieces per style\n6. Certifications, for example GOTS or OEKO-TEX, for the fabrics you would\nsource for us\n\nOne honest question: do you enjoy working with small emerging brands, or is\nthat outside your focus? A straight answer either way saves us both time.\n\nBest,\nYoann\nMYRROW",

            "content": "Hello Yoann,\n\nThank you for reaching out and sharing details about MYRROW. It's great to hear about your plans for a carefully crafted streetwear brand. Let me address your questions:\n\n1. We operate as a manufacturing company, not as an agency. We produce garments in our own facilities in Portugal.\n\n2. Our minimum order quantity (MOQ) for general clothing, including denim pants, T-shirts, and hoodies, is 200-300 units per style. For T-shirts and hoodies, the minimum is strictly 200 units per style.\n\n3. The cost of a sample depends entirely on the complexity of each specific design. We need to evaluate your Tech Pack to provide a proper sample quotation. Sample lead time is typically 6-8 weeks.\n\n4. Bulk production lead time is 10-14 weeks after sample approval.\n\n5. We do not provide indicative pricing at this stage. Accurate pricing can only be provided after our technical team analyzes your Tech Pack and confirms the final quantities. However, I do need to know your target production price per style to proceed.\n\n6. We hold the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification, which guarantees our commitment to environmentally and socially responsible production.\n\nRegarding your question about working with small emerging brands, we do enjoy collaborating with brands that are passionate about quality and long-term growth, regardless of their size.\n\nTo move forward, could you please confirm if you are willing to meet our minimum order quantities? Additionally, please provide your target production price per style. Once I have this information, I can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards.",

            "content": "Hello Matilde,\n\nThank you for the clear and complete answer.\n\nLet me be equally direct, because I think it saves us both time.\n\nOur first run is planned at 80 to 120 pieces per style, and our drop is\nend of March 2027 with tech packs ready mid September. Against your\nterms that gives us: sampling 6 to 8 weeks, one revision round which we\nshould realistically expect, then 10 to 14 weeks of bulk production.\nThat lands in April or May 2027, after our launch date. And your minimum\nof 200 units per style is roughly double the volume we have planned for\na first release.\n\nSo as things stand, the fit is not there for this drop. Two questions\nbefore I close the file, because either one would change the picture:\n\n1. Is there any route to a shorter sampling window, for example for a\nsimple style like the t-shirt, or is 6 to 8 weeks fixed?\n\n2. For denim specifically, is the minimum 200 or 300?\n\nOn your question about a target price: I would rather not name a number\nbefore you have seen the tech packs, because a target price set without\ntechnical detail tends to shape the product rather than describe it. If\nyou can share a typical range for a 270 gsm heavyweight tee and a 465\ngsm zip hoodie in your standard programme, that gives us a shared\nstarting point.\n\nIf the answer to both questions is no, I understand completely, and we\nwould like to come back to you for a later release when our volumes\nmatch your setup.\n\nBest,\nYoann\nMYRROW\n\nOn Fri, Aug 7, 2026 at 2:39\u202fPM Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Yoann,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and sharing details about MYRROW.

            "content": "Hello Yoann,\n\nThank you for your directness, which indeed helps us both.\n\n1. Unfortunately, the sampling window of 6 to 8 weeks is fixed. This timeframe ensures the high standards of quality and craftsmanship that Portuguese production is known for.\n\n2. For denim, the minimum order quantity is 200 units per style.\n\nRegarding the target price, I understand your hesitation to provide a number without the technical details. However, we do not provide typical price ranges at this stage. Accurate pricing can only be determined after our technical team reviews your Tech Pack and confirms the final quantities.\n\nGiven your current planned quantities and timeline, it seems we may not be the right fit for this particular release. However, we would be delighted to explore a partnership for future releases when your volumes align with our setup.\n\nThank you for considering us, and we look forward to the possibility of working together in the future.\n\nBest regards.",
