How a brief runs
How a brief for Izmir actually runs.
Wovens are the reason most brands look at the western cluster. These are the timings we plan with.
01
Send the briefDay 0
Product, fabric, pieces per style, target date and where the goods land. A photo or a reference garment is enough to start.
02
We replywithin 24 hours
An honest answer on fit. Our fee, if your project needs one, is quoted in writing before any work starts and is never tied to order size.
03
The factory choiceabout a week
We place the brief with the factory in our group built for your product, fabric and quantity. For wovens that is often in the Denizli-Izmir cluster. You have one point of contact from sample to delivery.
04
Pattern and samples2–4 weeks
Pattern to first sample in 10–14 days, then a round of corrections. You approve the sample, and bulk starts from it.
05
Bulk and shipping6–9 weeks
Bulk from the approved sample for the products made most here. The factory bills you directly; your forwarder confirms the transport.
Reviewing a garment during inspection
We pick the factory, not the city.
If the best line for your product is elsewhere in Turkey, we tell you and place the brief there. Plan with the 14-week rule: start at least 14 weeks before a fixed ship date.
Wovens and dresses with sampling rooms close by, when speed matters more than the fabric.
“Where we produce” is how our group works today. “Regional background” is general, widely known context, not a claim about our factories. Neither is a factory count: we never publish one per city.
Brief checklist
An Izmir brief, ready to quote.
For the wovens and jersey most brands bring to the western cluster. Tick what you already have.
It is how we group the western production area: woven shirts, fabric mills and terry around Denizli, linen around Manisa, and wovens, jersey and finishing around Izmir. It is the second big area after the Istanbul-Bursa belt.
Yes, linen is one of the reasons brands look at this cluster. Send the fabric, the pattern or a reference garment and the quantity; we place it with the factory in our group built for it.
Most factories in our group start at 100 pieces per style. We confirm the exact minimum for your product before you commit.
Budget 2–4 weeks for sampling, then 7–9 weeks of bulk for wovens and 6–8 for jersey. With a fixed ship date, start at least 14 weeks before it.
Usually not customs duty: clothing in free circulation in Turkey that travels with an A.TR movement certificate usually enters the EU without it. Import VAT and your broker’s fee still apply. For the UK, zero tariff depends on the rules of origin. This is general guidance, not customs advice: check with your broker.
Step 1 of your brief
What are you making, and how many?
Dresses and t-shirts are pre-ticked, the products most brands bring to Izmir. Change them freely, pick the pieces per style, and the brief opens with both filled in.
