Welcome to fashion threads ltd (www.fashionthreads.co.uk) a privately owned fashion design, sourcing and clothing manufacturing company, specialising in the whole fashion supply chain process, from design through to manufacturing and bulk delivery. We are based in hove, brighton, uk and work with both types of factories – cmt and ff, with minimums starting at 25 units. Our cmt (cut, make and trim) factory has minimums of 25 units. It is a service that suits small brands especially start-ups as the minimum units required is small. The client – you – provide the fabric and trims and the cmt factory sews it all together. The cmt factory provides the threads to sew the garment and they use recycled or organic threads. In some cases we can provide the fabric and we can help with patterns too. Our ff (fully factored) factories are based aboard and their minimums are 100 per style, per colour, which is split into 4 sizes of whatever ratio you want. With these factories we provide the full service from grading patterns, sourcing fabric and trims, providing lab dips, producing samples and packing the garments ready for shipping. All our factories are ethical and take pride in how they treat staff and produce fabrics. Specialising in: • tees, hoodies, joggers, sweatshirts • denims • outerwear • knitwear – cashmere, lambswool, merino wool • swimwear • fitness wear • footwear contact us to see how we can help your brand. We can help with: • garment design • logo & branding design • fabric pattern design • labels & trims design • range planning • technical drawings • tech packs • measurement charts • pattern cutting • sampling • size grading • manufacturing • freight & delivery • creative retail strategies we offer 3 levels of sampling: • initial or fitting sample (approx. 10-14 days to produce) • pre-production sample (approx. 4 weeks depending on size of your order) • production sample, which is sent for a final approval before the bulk production is sent to you. We work with several factories so as your product range diversifies you can utilise us for new collections. We bridge the gap between you and the factory, resulting in a smooth production, so you can focus on marketing, design, or whatever other aspect of your business you want, while we take care of production. We look forward to hearing from you.
