Jeans Sports Jacket for a Trade Show Exhibitor in Turkey
A Trade Show Exhibitor approached us with a jeans sports jacket requirement for Turkey. 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
- Minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb
- Unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing
- No reliable way to track a order once it enters production
What we specified
| Product | Jeans Sports Jacket |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Trade Show Exhibitor |
| Market | Turkey |
| Order volume | 1,200 pieces across 3 colourways |
| Base fabric | Combed Cotton |
| Decoration | Hangtag and Packaging |
| Size range | XS-3XL |
| Sampling rounds | 4 |
| Delivery window | 6 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Combed Cotton and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Hangtag and Packaging 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
- 1,200 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% 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.
