1. Confirm the buyer requirements
Start by writing down product type, target quantity, size range, fabric preference, logo positions, packaging needs, and delivery deadline. For factory capacity, unclear requirements usually create delays during sampling or bulk production.
2. Check the sample against written specs
Compare the sample with the confirmed artwork, size chart, fabric selection, trims, and packing instructions. Ask the supplier to correct any mismatch before approving bulk production.
3. Keep QC and shipment evidence
Before shipment, request photos of measurements, workmanship, printing, labels, packaging, carton marks, and total quantity. These records reduce disputes and make repeat orders faster.
