Minimum order quantity (MOQ) per style and color\n? Sample pricing and development process\n? Approximate production pricing for activewear pieces (bras, leggings, jackets, and matching sets)\n? Lead times for samples and bulk production\n? Available fabric options and certifications\n? Whether you offer assistance with pattern making and technical development\n? Whether you work from tech packs only, or if you can also develop patterns based on inspiration images and references\n? Logo application methods available (silicone heat transfer, screen printing, embroidery, etc.)\n? Custom dyeing capabilities and Pantone color matching\n? Shipping options and lead times\n\n\nAt the moment, I am planning a small initial collection and would be happy to share inspiration images and product references.\n\n\nI look forward to hearing more about your services and exploring a potential collaboration.\n\n\nBest regards,\n\n\nLulu AlDousari\nFounder, SENSE Activewear\n\n\n\nGet Outlook for iOS",

            "content": "Hello Lulu,\n\nThank you for providing more details about SENSE Activewear. It's great to know you're focusing on premium women's activewear sets. To proceed, I need to clarify a few key points:\n\n1. **Tech Packs\/Samples**: Since you don't have full tech packs yet, do you have a physical sample (an actual garment) that you can ship to our office in Portugal? If not, please let me know, and we can discuss alternative ways to proceed.\n\n2. **Quantities**: Our minimum order quantity (MOQ) for general clothing, including activewear, is 200\u2013300 units per style, with a minimum of 100 units per color. Could you confirm if you are able to meet these minimums for your collection?\n\n3. **Target Price**: I understand you're exploring options, but I need to know your target production price per style to proceed. This information is crucial for our technical team to evaluate your project.\n\nRegarding your interest in high-quality, skin-safe fabrics, we hold the GOTS certification, ensuring environmentally and socially responsible production. For specific technical capabilities like pattern development, I will forward your project details to our technical team for confirmation.\n\nOnce I have the above details, I can guide you further. Please remember that accurate pricing can only be provided after our technical team analyzes your Tech Pack or physical sample and confirms the final quantities.\n\nLooking forward to your response.\n\nBest regards.",

Since SENSE is currently a startup brand, your MOQ of 200?300 units per style is quite high for our first launch. Would there be any flexibility for a smaller initial production run?\n\n\nPricing is also an important consideration for me, alongside quality, sustainability, and craftsmanship. My goal is to position the brand within the premium activewear market, while maintaining realistic production costs as we grow.\n\n\nAt this stage, I do not yet have a fixed target production price, as I am still exploring different manufacturing options. Would you be able to provide an indicative price range for premium activewear pieces such as sports bras, leggings, flare leggings, and fitted jackets?\n\n\nI would also appreciate confirmation on whether your team can support pattern development based on inspiration images and references.\n\n\nBest regards,\nLulu AlDousari\n\n\n\nGet Outlook for iOS\n________________________________",

            "content": "Hello Lulu,\n\nThank you for sharing more about your plans for SENSE Activewear. I understand that as a startup, you're looking for flexibility in your initial production run. However, our minimum order quantities are strictly non-negotiable, with a requirement of 200\u2013300 units per style. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate smaller quantities at this time.\n\nFor basic apparel items like T-shirts, hoodies, shorts, or sweatpants, you might consider exploring www.privatelabelclothes.com for smaller runs. However, for activewear, we maintain our minimums due to the complexity and quality standards involved.\n\nRegarding pricing, I must emphasize that we do not provide indicative price ranges at this stage. Accurate pricing can only be determined after our technical team reviews your Tech Pack or physical sample and confirms the final quantities. I understand this is important for your planning, but we need concrete numbers to proceed.\n\nAs for pattern development, I will forward your project details to our technical team to confirm if we can support development based on inspiration images and references.\n\nIf you decide to proceed with the minimum quantities, please let me know, and we can continue discussing your project.\n\nBest regards.",
