Built for importers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers.
Use SmartApparel to develop an apparel brief, approve a technical pack, compare eligible manufacturers and track samples, production, quality, shipment and receiving. The buying-agency process keeps evidence and approvals attached to the order.
Plan for United Kingdom from the first brief.
- Specify whether the receiving location is in Great Britain or Northern Ireland, and identify the importer and delivery warehouse.
- Agree fabric composition, care and other product labels, packaging, physical samples and the order-specific testing plan before cutting.
- Ask your customs broker to confirm the applicable EORI, classification, valuation, origin, duties and VAT for the actual movement. UK and EU destinations require separate review.
Origin options include Bangladesh, China, India, Vietnam and Cambodia. A country listing does not promise a factory relationship, office, audit status, guaranteed price or delivery commitment. Factories must pass project-specific qualification.
Official destination trade / customs starting point ↗. Your broker must validate current requirements for the actual product and shipment.
