I'm excited to hear about your new Norwegian clothing brand and your interest in manufacturing with us in Portugal.\n\nTo proceed, I need to gather some specific information to ensure we can meet your requirements:\n\n1. **Tech Pack or Physical Sample:** Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample of the T-shirt that you can send us?\n\n2. **Quantities:** What is the total quantity you intend to produce per style and per colour? Our minimum order quantity for T-shirts is 200 units per style.\n\n3. **Desired Delivery Date:** What is your desired delivery date for the initial launch?\n\n4. **Target Price:** What is your maximum target production price per T-shirt?\n\nRegarding your questions:\n\n- **MOQ:** Our minimum order quantity for T-shirts is 200 units per style, with a minimum of 100 units per colour.\n- **Fabric Availability:** We can source 100% organic cotton double jersey fabrics in the 260\u2013300 GSM range, and we hold the GOTS certification.\n- **Sample Development:** The cost of a sample depends on the specific product and complexity of the design. We only develop one sample per style for initial approval.\n- **Lead Times:** Our total production cycle is approximately 5 months, including sampling and production.\n- **Custom Pantone Dyeing:** We can accommodate custom Pantone dyeing requests.\n\nPlease provide the missing details, and we can proceed with evaluating your project further.\n\nBest regards,  \nMatilde Azevedo",

I am also currently putting together\nthe full technical specifications for the product.\n\nRegarding quantities, my original plan is to launch the T-shirt in five\ncolours. As this will be the first production run for a new brand, I would\nideally like to keep the initial quantities relatively low.\n\nI understand that your minimum is 100 units per colour, which would mean\n500 units for a five-colour launch.\nWould there be any flexibility for a first production run, for example a\nlower quantity per colour while still meeting the 200-unit minimum per\nstyle? If not, I would still be interested in understanding the options\navailable.\n\nMy intended launch is Spring 2027. At this stage I have some flexibility\nregarding the exact delivery date, as finding the right fabric, fit and\nmanufacturing partner is more important to me than rushing the development\nprocess.\n\nRegarding target price, I am currently finalising my costing and retail\npricing, so I don't want to give you an unrealistic maximum before\nunderstanding your production costs. Could you give me an approximate price\nrange for a T-shirt matching the specifications I sent, at your minimum\nquantities?\n\nThe fabric is particularly important to me. Before beginning sample\ndevelopment, would it be possible to receive swatches of the organic cotton\ndouble jersey options you can source in the 260\u2013300 GSM range?\n\nI would ideally like to compare several weights and qualities before\nselecting the final fabric.\n\nThank you again.\nBest regards,\nSilje Hallaraune\n\ntor. 17. sep. 2026, 14:26 skrev Matilde Azevedo :\n\n> Hello Silje,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out and providing detailed information about your\n> project.

Unfortunately, we cannot reduce the MOQ per colour below 100 units. However, if you can meet the 200-unit minimum per style, we can proceed with the five-colour launch as planned.\n\n- **Target Price:** I understand your position on finalizing your costing and retail pricing. However, to evaluate whether the project is aligned before technical costing, our team requires a maximum target production price per T-shirt. Could you please indicate the maximum amount per unit you would realistically be able to work with?\n\n- **Fabric Swatches:** We can provide fabric swatches of the organic cotton double jersey options in the 260\u2013300 GSM range. However, we first need to gather all the other project details. Once our technical team reviews your information and approves the project, they will contact you with the exact shipping instructions for the swatches.\n\n- **Sample Development and Pricing:** The cost of a sample depends on the specific product and complexity of the design. Accurate production pricing depends on the technical specifications, materials, construction, and final quantities, so our technical team needs to evaluate the project before confirming a quotation.\n\n- **Lead Times:** With your intended launch in Spring 2027 and flexibility regarding the exact delivery date, we can accommodate this timeline. Our total production cycle is approximately 5 months, including sampling and production.\n\nPlease let me know your maximum target production price per T-shirt, and we can proceed with evaluating your project further.\n\nBest regards,  \nMatilde Azevedo",
