Designer Men'S Dress Trousers for a Manufacturing Plant in Peru
A Manufacturing Plant approached us with a designer men's dress trousers requirement for Peru. The brief was specific: a defined look, a hard launch date and a unit cost that had to survive shipping and duty. This case study records what was specified, what went wrong in sampling and how the bulk order was delivered.
The challenge
- Unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing
- No reliable way to track a order once it enters production
- Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid
What we specified
| Product | Designer Men'S Dress Trousers |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Manufacturing Plant |
| Market | Peru |
| Order volume | 800 pieces across 6 colourways |
| Base fabric | Flannel |
| Decoration | Sequin Work |
| Size range | Custom grading |
| Sampling rounds | 3 |
| Delivery window | 12 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Flannel and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Sequin Work after strike-off tests showed better wash durability.
- A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
- Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
- Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and size ratio specification.
Result
- 800 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 4.5% of the original quotation.
- Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 1.5%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Fix the size ratio early. Changing the ratio after cutting starts is the single most expensive change a client can request.
