Case Study: Custom Maternity Compression Stockings for an Amazon Private Label Seller in Chile

Maternity Compression Stockings for an Amazon Private Label Seller in Chile

An Amazon Private Label Seller approached us with a maternity compression stockings requirement for Chile. 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

• Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid
• Inconsistent sizing between production runs
• Packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable

What we specified

How it was resolved

1. We rebuilt the tech pack around Silk Charmeuse and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
2. Decoration was moved to Tonal Embroidery after strike-off tests showed better wash durability.
3. A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
4. Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
5. Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and size ratio specification.

Result

• 5,000 pieces delivered inside the 6-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

Fix the size ratio early. Changing the ratio after cutting starts is the single most expensive change a client can request.
