We are based in Vila do Conde, Portugal, and specialize in high-quality swimwear production.\n\nTo properly assess your project, I need to gather some initial information.\n\nFirst, could you please provide your brand's website? I see a UK phone number; is your brand based in the United Kingdom?\n\nIt is excellent that you have your tech packs prepared. Regarding your questions:\n\nOur minimum order quantity (MOQ) for swimwear is 200 units per style. A bikini set is considered two separate styles (top and bottom). How many units are you planning to produce per style?\n\nOur standard lead time for sampling and production is approximately 5 months. Based on the current date, the earliest delivery would be around the end of July 2026.\n\nFinally, could you please provide your production price per style, indicated separately for each style?\n\nOnce I have these details, I can better evaluate your project.",

            "content": "Hello Matilde,\nThank you very much for your reply and for the detailed explanation.\nI would like to clarify a few key points regarding the project.\nThe brand is UK-based, with an international market focus, particularly Dubai, Ibiza, and Miami, where swimwear is relevant year-round. For this reason, the European summer season is not a determining factor for this collection, and the proposed lead time does not represent an issue for my launch strategy.\nThis first collection consists of 7 pieces in total, including bikini tops, bikini bottoms, and beachwear. As this is an initial launch, my intention is to begin with lower quantities per style, allowing me to test the market, refine fit, and build the brand before scaling.\nWith this in mind, I would like to explore whether there is any flexibility on the MOQ, such as:\n50\u2013100 units per style, or\na combined MOQ across the full collection, rather than per individual style.\nMy objective is to establish a long-term manufacturing partnership in Portugal, with increased volumes in future collections once the brand is established in these markets.\nI look forward to your feedback and to understanding your indicative pricing per style, which will help me finalize quantities and move forward.\nBest regards,\nScarlet\n\n\n> On 9 Feb 2026, at 15:46, Matilde Azevedo  wrote:\n> \n> Hello Scarlet,\n> \n> Thank you for your inquiry.

            "content": "Hello Scarlet,\n\nThank you for the additional information. It is helpful to understand your brand's strategy and market focus.\n\nRegarding the minimum order quantities, I must be transparent. Our MOQ is firmly set at 200 units per style for both swimwear and beachwear. This is a requirement for our production lines, and unfortunately, we cannot offer flexibility on this or combine quantities across different styles. To proceed, each of your 7 styles would need to meet this 200-unit minimum.\n\nTo continue the analysis of your project, could you please provide your production target price per style, indicated separately for each one? We need this information from you to evaluate the project's feasibility with our technical team.\n\nAlso, could you please provide your brand's website and send over the Tech Packs for your collection?\n\nI understand this might not be the answer you were hoping for regarding the quantities, but these are our standard operational requirements.",
