Soft Knit Baby Ensemble for an Amazon Private Label Seller in Hong Kong
An Amazon Private Label Seller approached us with a soft knit baby ensemble requirement for Hong Kong. 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
- Unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing
- Packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable
- Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid
What we specified
| Product | Soft Knit Baby Ensemble |
|---|---|
| Client type | An Amazon Private Label Seller |
| Market | Hong Kong |
| Order volume | 5,000 pieces across 2 colourways |
| Base fabric | Polyester |
| Decoration | Seam Sealing |
| Size range | Custom grading |
| Sampling rounds | 3 |
| Delivery window | 12 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Polyester and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Seam Sealing 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 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 4.5% 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
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not from machines.
