How to source clothing from Bangladesh
Six clear stages with one point of contact, and full visibility from the first tech pack to the final container.
In short
Sourcing apparel through Perfect Apparels takes six stages: design & development, sampling, sourcing & costing, production, quality control and shipping. Proto samples usually take 7–14 days, and most programmes ship 60–90 days after pre-production sample approval, with one point of contact throughout.
