Embroidered Girls Denim for an Airline Catering Team in Saudi Arabia
An Airline Catering Team approached us with a embroidered girls denim requirement for Saudi Arabia. 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
- Long lead times that miss the selling season
- Packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable
- Unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing
What we specified
| Product | Embroidered Girls Denim |
|---|---|
| Client type | An Airline Catering Team |
| Market | Saudi Arabia |
| Order volume | 5,000 pieces across 2 colourways |
| Base fabric | Gabardine |
| Decoration | Flat Embroidery |
| Size range | 2-12Y |
| Sampling rounds | 3 |
| Delivery window | 5 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Gabardine and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Flat Embroidery 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
- 5,000 pieces delivered inside the 5-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the original quotation.
- Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 1.0%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not from machines.
