I will source from 1688 and develop samples for your apparel brand
China Apparel Sourcing Agent, Factory Direct, 30 Years Experience
About this Gig
You have a design but no factory. Or you found something on 1688 and need it made properly.
I am based in Changshu, Jiangsu - one of China's largest apparel clusters. Mills, factories and sample rooms sit within 30 minutes of my desk, so I visit them in person instead of forwarding your questions to someone in another province.
WHAT YOU GET
- 1688 sourcing: I find the item, then verify the real factory behind the listing, not a trading company
- Factory-direct pricing, MOQ and lead time, negotiated in Chinese on your behalf
- Fabric swatches, colour cards and hand-feel photos before you commit
- Sample development: tech pack review, pattern making, one fit sample and a revision round
- Quality check: measurements, stitching and labels photographed and filmed before shipping
- Export paperwork and shipping coordination when you move to bulk
Built for independent brands, Shopify sellers and small wholesalers who want a real person on the ground in China.
To start I need a product link or reference photos, target quantity, size range and your deadline.
Not sure if your project is realistic? Message me before ordering - I will answer honestly, even when the answer is no.

FAQ
Do you go to the factory or just the 1688 seller?
Always the factory. Most 1688 listings are traders reselling. I confirm the real factory so price, MOQ and QC are direct.
What is the minimum order?
Most factories I use start at 50-100 pcs per colour. Sample orders can be 1 piece. Tell me your quantity and I will confirm.
How much is a sample?
Usually 30-90 USD per piece plus fabric, depending on style and pattern work. I confirm the exact cost before production starts.
Can you check quality before I pay the balance?
Yes. I inspect at the factory, measure, photograph stitching and labels, and send video before you release payment.
Do you arrange shipping?
I handle export paperwork and coordinate with your forwarder. Freight is billed at cost, no markup.
