Some garment enterprises due to poor management of outgoing garment processing, resulting in unqualified garment product quality, causing great economic losses to enterprises.”

2. Visit the garment processing factory
Inspection of the garment processing factory, this thing no matter how busy you must go to do, do not give the QC to do, not that you can not trust QC, but to reduce the risk.

You can believe it or not, but you can take the time to go and see it again, just to be on the safe side.

7. Track the delivery date from the time the order is placed
Track the delivery date must start from the garment processing factory to get the order, do not wait until it is about to ship to start tracking.
The garment production process with the work is mainly to understand the clothing manufacturer’s production progress can meet the delivery date of the order, and whether the product is produced according to the order, so the order taker should go deep into the clothing manufacturer’s production plant to check the quality of products and production progress, and find problems to deal with in a timely manner. Because the production process with the basic requirements of the order is to make the clothing manufacturers can be delivered immediately and according to the order agreed on quality delivery.

There is about the packaging. (color printing, or white lamination). There are changes in the delivery date. (either earlier or later). When we receive a request from a customer to change the content of an order, we must first look at what to change. Can we accept it? If our garments have been produced almost, or have been closed, it is impossible to change.
If it is not yet scheduled, it is not a big problem. If we have already scheduled part, we need to negotiate. For example, if the quantity is to be reduced, we have already purchased the material according to the original quantity, and the general fabric is not a big problem. However, if the raw material is customized, the customer has to bear part of the cost. For the delivery time: if the customer wants to advance, we have to make a decision according to the actual situation. If you want to postpone, the time is short, and the problem is not big, but if you want to delay for a long time, then the storage fee and the loss fee need to be borne by the customer.
