Sustainability and certification are central to our brand's\nidentity.\n\nI\u2019d love to understand more about how you work with start-up brands and\nwhether we might be a good fit.\n\nWe have a prototype. Would you require this physical prototype along with a\ntech pack? Please can you explain how this part of the process works in\nmore detail?\n\nSome other questions we have:\nYour minimum order quantity for a small run of organic cotton tracksuit\nbottoms\nWhat organic cotton fabric weights and compositions do you offer eg:\njersey, French terry, fleece blends\nYour sampling process and costs for new clients\nYour typical lead times from sample approval to delivery\n Custom finishing options in particular waistbands, cuffs, drawstrings,\npockets, labels\nScreen printing, heat press, puff binder services\nDo you provide GOTS transaction certificates with production orders\nThank you, I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nPhilippa",

This is non-negotiable.\n- We offer various organic cotton fabric options, including jersey, French terry, and fleece blends, but specific weights and compositions can be discussed once we have your Tech Pack.\n- The sampling process and costs depend on the complexity of your design, and we can provide a detailed quote after reviewing your Tech Pack or physical sample.\n- Typical lead times from sample approval to delivery are around 5 months, which includes production and any necessary holidays.\n- We can discuss custom finishing options such as waistbands, cuffs, drawstrings, pockets, and labels once we have your design details.\n- We do offer screen printing and heat press services, but specific details will be confirmed after reviewing your project.\n- We hold the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification, which guarantees our commitment to environmentally and socially responsible production.\n\nOnce I have the requested details, I can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps.\n\nLooking forward to your response!",

For the minimum order quantity, the requirement is 200 units per style, which applies to each color as well.
