Spaghetti Strap Tank Top for a Corporate Procurement Team in Belgium
A Corporate Procurement Team approached us with a spaghetti strap tank top requirement for Belgium. 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
- Color drift between lab dips and bulk fabric
- Unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing
- Long lead times that miss the selling season
What we specified
| Product | Spaghetti Strap Tank Top |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Corporate Procurement Team |
| Market | Belgium |
| Order volume | 3,000 pieces across 6 colourways |
| Base fabric | Lambswool |
| Decoration | Debossing |
| Size range | S-4XL |
| Sampling rounds | 4 |
| Delivery window | 6 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Lambswool and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Debossing 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
- 3,000 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 1.0%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Approve a pre-production sample from the actual bulk fabric. Proto cloth behaves differently in cutting and washing.
