Bulk Pajama Production
Bulk pajama production: cutting, sewing, printing, embroidery, finishing and packing, run against your sealed sample from order to shipment.

- Production follows the sealed sample, not a description of it
- Cutting, sewing, printing, embroidery, finishing and packing managed together
- Progress updates through the order cycle
Once your sample is approved, bulk production is an exercise in reproducing it: same fabric, same construction, same trims, same packaging. We manage cutting, sewing, printing, embroidery, finishing and packing, and keep you updated through the order cycle until shipment.
The sealed sample is the specification
Everything in production is checked against the physical approved sample rather than against a description of it. That is what makes “the collar is wrong” a thirty-second comparison instead of an argument.
If you want a duplicate sealed sample to keep on your side, ask for it before production starts.
About minimums and lead times
Minimum order quantities and lead times depend on the product, the fabric and the customisation involved — a stock-fabric knit set and a custom-dyed woven set with yarn-dyed checks are not the same commitment.
We quote both per project rather than publishing a single number that would be wrong for most enquiries. Send your product and quantity through the quote form and you will get specific figures for what you actually want to make.
Repeat orders
A repeat order runs from the retained pattern and the sealed sample, which is what makes the second run match the first. Where the original fabric lot is no longer available, we will tell you before production rather than substituting quietly.
Quality checks during production are covered in Quality Control.
When Buyers Need This
Situations this service answers
If none of these describe your project, this probably is not the step you need — tell us what you are actually trying to solve.
- Your sample is approved and you are ready to place a production order
- You are repeating a previous order and need it to match the first run
- You are scaling an order across multiple colourways or sizes
Our Process
How this step runs
- 01
Order confirmed against the sealed sample
Quantities, sizes, colourways and trims are confirmed against the physical approved sample before anything is booked.
- 02
Fabric and trims received and inspected
Checked for weight, width, shade and visible faults before they reach the cutting table.
- 03
Cutting
Marker laid for efficient consumption, with pattern matching where checks or stripes require it.
- 04
Sewing with in-line checks
Construction verified while the line runs, so faults are corrected in place rather than sorted out of finished goods.
- 05
Printing, embroidery and finishing
Applied to the approved placement and checked against the strike-off or stitch-out.
- 06
Final inspection and packing
A random sample of packed goods is opened and inspected before shipment.
What We Need From You
Inputs required
The faster these arrive, the fewer rounds development takes.
- An approved, sealed pre-production sample
- Confirmed quantities by size and colourway
- Approved bulk trims, labels and packaging
- Your shipping and packing requirements
Options
Choices available
- Single or multiple colourways in one order
- Polybagged, boxed or presentation-packed finishing
- Carton marking and packing lists to your specification
- Photographic progress updates at defined stages
Limitations
What this cannot do
Constraints stated up front are cheaper for both of us than constraints discovered in production.
- Minimum order quantities depend on the product, fabric and customisation; we quote them per project rather than publishing a single number
- Custom-dyed and custom-printed fabric carry their own minimums, usually above the garment minimum
- Natural fibre shade variation between lots is managed and reduced, not eliminated
- Lead time depends on fabric availability and customisation and is confirmed per order, not assumed
Quality
How it gets verified
- Every stage checked against the sealed sample rather than a written description
- In-line correction preferred over sorting finished goods
- Measurement checks per size against the approved chart
- Problems reported before shipment, with findings and a proposal

Where this sits in production
Every order runs through the same sequence. Each step has its own page, its own approval, and its own way of going wrong.

FAQ
Bulk Production — common questions
What is your pajama MOQ?
MOQ depends on the style, fabric and customization involved. Simple styles in stock fabrics can start from a lower minimum, while custom-dyed or custom-woven fabrics raise it. Send us your product requirements and we will confirm the exact MOQ for your project.
Will my fit sample be washed before I approve it?
Yes — we launder fit samples before sending them. Cotton shrinks, knits relax and viscose can distort, so a sample approved unwashed is not the garment your customer receives. Approving fit on a washed sample removes the most common cause of bulk fit complaints.
How long does bulk production take?
Production lead time depends on order quantity, fabric lead time and the production schedule in your season. We confirm the delivery timeline in your quotation and update you through the order cycle.
What quality checks happen during production?
Fabric is inspected before cutting, construction is checked in line while the order is running, finished garments are measured against your approved size chart, and a random sample of packed goods is inspected before shipment. Everything is compared against the sealed pre-production sample rather than a written description of it.
