But if you don&#8217;t know anyone, it can get tricky since most brand owners don&#8217;t share their manufacturer details for free because it can dilute their brand positioning. Because the more customers the manufacturer has, the slower the turnaround time will be, and no manufacturer wants this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, you can always offer them some payment to get access to their manufacturer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a detailed breakdown on online directories, read this:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.seebiz.com\/blog\/how-to-buy-wholesale-clothing\/\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.seebiz.com\/blog\/how-to-buy-wholesale-clothing\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step-by-step process for Supplier vetting &#8211; looking for the right match<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disclaimer: Here, we will provide a detailed breakdown of Alibaba. But the process is the same for vetting any supplier you are looking to work with.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Alibaba, when you select all relevant filters, you have a list of all the qualified manufacturers that could be a potential match. Now, what you have to do is select a manufacturer that follows all the protocols you are looking for, has the right product, and the pricing matches your budget.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar to other online platforms, if you want to vet the supplier, look for the following things that we will discuss below.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1- Look at the reviews <\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To find reviews, go to the manufacturer\u2019s store. There are multiple options to choose from in the review section, so to prevent any kind of scam, select reviews with attached pictures, as it will be easier for you to determine which reviews are fake and which are from real customers.

Based on that budget, what you need to do is negotiate with the vendor. You can negotiate the price, lead time, or quality, depending on your requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In most cases, if your negotiation skills are strong, you can persuade the supplier to lower the price by at least 15%. Always make sure to let them know that you are looking for a long-term partner. This way, they will be more willing to start a partnership.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6- Give your manufacturer a quality benchmark<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are familiar with some of the brands they work for, you can provide them with a quality benchmark. For example, if you can create something of higher quality than that of your competitor. This gives them a benchmark to work on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additional things to look after after vetting a supplier or starting a partnership<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Always set a lead time<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You have to set the expectation in the beginning that you have to get the order in this time frame, so that you prevent delays and late orders.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Keep the communication documented<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every order should come with an invoice that includes every detail. This way, in case of any delay, error, or problem, you have a document to reference back to.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Documented communication<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Documented expectations<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Documented deadlines<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Documented agreements<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep everything documented from day 1.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Compensation for delay<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on mutual benefits, you can always set a competition in case of any delay from both parties. For example, a delay in payment or a delay in order. In that case, you both are accountable for fulfilling your side of the job.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Make a detailed revision brief<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After you receive your sample, what you are going to do is make a detailed sheet about what you like about the product, what you don&#8217;t like, and why. This step is important because it will impact your product&#8217;s quality in a bulk order.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check if the stitching is accurate.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check if the buttons are durable and of recommended quality.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check if the fabric is not see-through or of low quality.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check everything, tick and cross all the boxes, and send them over to your manufacturer for cross-checking.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consideration while selecting a manufacturer<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Product type<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are choosing something that only requires screen printing, you can opt for a local manufacturer, which may be cheaper, helping you save on high shipping costs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, if you just want a simple blank hoodie to have a print on, you can go with companies like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/madeblanks.com\/?srsltid=AfmBOoo-ZLBOOFgTM8x3WQOVQ5kV7GOhXJlnX8FRxY_dDhsrrQ1ldiLd\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Made Blanks<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, LA Apparel, or Lane 7, etc. There are a lot of other domestic companies too that specialize in this area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But if you are looking for clothing with specific designs and premium materials. In that case, you can always seek out domestic vendors or overseas suppliers who specialize in that type of clothing or can make custom products.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Location<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are just starting out and looking for small MOQs, you can find some good local manufacturers. Alternatively, if you are going with an overseas manufacturer, such as one from China or Pakistan, look for manufacturers that can offer MOQs ranging from 50 to 100. This is pretty basic for a startup.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prevent scamming<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to prevent a manufacturer scam, then what you have to do is either look for suppliers in your city where you can physically go or check the products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Or, if you are ordering through a platform like Alibaba, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/makersrow.com\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Makersrow<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomasnet.com\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thomsat Net<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sewport.com\/top-clothing-manufacturers\/usa\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sewport<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you must conduct proper supplier vetting to prevent scamming. On platforms like Alibaba, there is a filter for Trade Assurance that specifically ensures the trustworthiness of the manufacturer you are dealing with, and you will receive order insurance in case of any errors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Burning questions straight from the clothing businesses looking for trusted suppliers<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1- How not to get scammed?<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, vet your supplier carefully (just like we discussed earlier)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, send them a tech pack so you have proof in case of any error, and request a refund.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Third, never pay the full amount upfront; always go with a deposit and the remaining payment after your order is ready to be shipped, or you get the order. (That&#8217;s what we call 5<\/span><b>0% payment terms<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.) Or you can go with <\/span><b>30% payment terms<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, like if your entire order costs you around $3000, you can pay only $1000 upfront for the vendor to start manufacturing.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2- How to find suppliers that could offer the smallest MOQs?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can look for some local <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seebiz.com\/blog\/what-are-suppliers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\">suppliers<\/a> to negotiate the minimum quantity. Or if you are looking for manufacturers on online platforms like Alibaba (Both locally or oversees), always make sure to ask if they can work with small MOQs that later will turn into larger orders if everything goes well along the line.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most important thing is your negotiation skills. If you can negotiate better, you can get them to a smaller number. Alternatively, simply find a supplier that deals in 50 to 100 MOQs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3- How to get free samples?<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Samples can cost you around $1-$200 on average, especially if you are getting them oversees. But there are ways to get them for free.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1- If you already have a running brand, then instead of ordering a sample, you can put a bulk order on 30% payment terms, in this way you can get a free sample that will be sent to you a lot quicker than usual.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2- If you order through a company, suppose you order a sample that costs around $ 150. However, the condition is that once you place the bulk order, the money will be refunded, and you will have your sample for free.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But most of the time, it comes with a specific MOQ. You have to check for it before placing the order. Most manufacturers refund your sample price if you order a minimum of 100 pieces (On Alibaba).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3- Lastly, if you order more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seebiz.com\/blog\/sku-numbers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\">SKUs<\/a>, you will get discounted prices. Suppose a pair of pants costs you $40 for 50 pieces. However, if you order 500, the price will be lowered to $25. In that case, your sample cost will already be covered, and you get the sample for free.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Red flags to look for before placing an order<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1- Immediate pressure on placing the order<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a manufacturer is pressuring you into placing an order, it&#8217;s a red flag to look out for. Most of the time, that manufacturer is looking for a quick buck rather than establishing a long-term relationship. And you don&#8217;t want that, right?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2- Refusal to send previous work<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you can&#8217;t find videos of the products on their store website, you can ask for their previous work in chat. By previous work, we mean manufacturing, warehouse, products placed in the warehouse, etc. If the manufacturer is too hesitant or refuses to send the previous work, it&#8217;s a big red flag. Either that supplier is scamming you or doesn&#8217;t have any previous work to back up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3- Sending video from a social media platform<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the manufacturer sends you videos or pictures from their or other social media accounts instead of showing their own warehouse products, it&#8217;s a red flag. Because they might not have made the exact same item or could be trying to pass off lower quality.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4- No trade assurance<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seebiz.com\/blog\/how-do-i-find-manufacturers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\">manufacturer<\/a> doesn&#8217;t have any trade assurance or the platform doesn&#8217;t offer any, then it&#8217;s another red flag. Because in that case, if any error occurs with your order, you won&#8217;t be able to file a complaint or get your refund.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suppliers that don&#8217;t have trade assurance most probably are.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not able to provide a good product<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not verified by the platform<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t have enough experience in manufacturing<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5- Unusually low prices<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are one of those people who get attracted to the cheapest prices, then you might be a red flag. Because suppliers who quote unusually low prices for products that are too low as compared to their actual production cost are a big warning sign. Because either they produce the lowest quality products or don\u2019t produce anything, and want to scam you by taking your money.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6- Vague answers about production inquiries<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your supplier is a little bit too enthusiastic about the production that they could make anything you provide them, it&#8217;s again a red flag.
