A clear brief makes a better first sample.

BERKAM supports OEM/ODM enquiries for corporate shirts, business suits and workwear. Bring a tech pack, an existing sample or an initial product brief. The starting material determines how much development and specification work is needed. Agree the manufacturing scope and approval responsibilities before sampling; a reference image alone is not a complete production instruction.

01

OEM: work from your specification

Supply measurements, construction details, materials and artwork. Review manufacturability and resolve missing details before the sample is made.

02

ODM: develop from a direction

Explain your customer, fit preference and design direction. Agree which design and specification inputs BERKAM will provide for the project.

PROJECT WORKFLOW

Development gates before bulk production

01

Brief and feasibility

Define product scope, specification gaps and the requested quantity. Discuss the sample plan, development tasks and quotation assumptions.

02

Sample and revisions

Review the physical sample for fit, fabric, construction and branding. Consolidate comments into one controlled revision list.

03

Production approval

Confirm the final sample and documents in writing. Record material references and any accepted variations before bulk production.

04

Inspection and replenishment

Agree the checks, packing and dispatch scope. Preserve the approved version for later orders and review changes before repeating production.

BUYER QUESTIONS

Before you place an order

Can I start without a tech pack?

Yes, an initial brief or sample can start the discussion. Missing measurements, construction, material and branding details still need to be resolved before production approval.

Can BERKAM add my brand labels?

Private-label enquiries can include labels and packaging. Provide artwork, placement and required label wording so feasibility and the production scope can be confirmed.

What should a startup prepare first?

Start with one defined product, its intended customer, size range, quantity estimate, reference garment and delivery destination. A focused brief is easier to evaluate than an undefined full collection.

Are sampling time and MOQ fixed?

They depend on the garment, fabric availability, development work and order quantity. Request a project-specific sample plan and quotation.

Give your next order a clear starting point.

Share your styles, quantities, size breakdown, branding, destination and target date. We will review the appropriate route and the information needed for the next step.
