Having a good black friday?

The busiest shopping day of the year is an closely watched event in the apparel industry because it tells professionals if they've been right in their market predictions.. or not.


Online sales of clothing have done even better than last year and same (brick and mortar) stores are on the rise.
In these uncertain economic times, it looks as if the men and women in the street have decided to treat themselves with the latest fashion gear and accessories.

We've had some feedback from readers of the blog about the October article dealing with Sept 2011 retail sales and the wholesale clothing market conditions.

Some of these readers are selling their own brand and were not sure to be right to react until Black Friday came along with wonderful sales and a renewed optimism for the clothing retail and wholesale industry.

How urgent is your (wholesale clothing) order?

That's something we've been talking about in previous posts, the earlier you order your garments, the better the price.

Order Early and Get Double Discount:
And we are not even talking about the transportation cost for your clothes from Vietnam to your market. We are talking manufacturing price. If your order is urgent, the quotation may have to be recalculated in order to include the cost of mobilizing troops.





Therefore, when you order early, you lower the manufacturing cost as well as the transportation cost (because your garments are shipped by boat instead of sending them by plane).

Why not indicate to your consultant at the clothing factory the time that you've got in your hands to get your clothes made.

What's New?
In the new contact form available here: Get a quotation to get your clothes made you can simply tick It's urgent or I've got time when requesting your quotation.

Can you trust forum reviews?

Reviews on forums may not all be trusted.

The reason for this: Forums are sometimes made up by business owners to make a bad reputation to competitors.

It is the case in many industries and there is no such thing as independant opinion even in the fashion industry.

A good example of this is the review of Ellen Clothing Manufacturer by T-shirtforums.com

T-shirtforums is associated to US clothing manufacturers and they are very keen on putting together bad comments about Asian competitors.

Can these US apparel manufacturers provide their market with high quality clothes at the same price than their Asian counterparts? No, they can't. But they still need to eat so they end up doing things ethically discutable.
