Full Body Kid Mannequin for a Corporate Procurement Team in Denmark
A Corporate Procurement Team approached us with a full body kid mannequin requirement for Denmark. 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
- Packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable
- Long lead times that miss the selling season
- Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid
What we specified
| Product | Full Body Kid Mannequin |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Corporate Procurement Team |
| Market | Denmark |
| Order volume | 500 pieces across 3 colourways |
| Base fabric | Organic Cotton |
| Decoration | Contrast Stitching |
| Size range | Custom grading |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 12 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Organic Cotton and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Contrast Stitching 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
- 500 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 0.5%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Lock the colour standard before grading. Once a shade moves, every downstream approval has to be redone and the calendar slips.
