Apparel & Fashion - , California, United States
At Nationmade our stated goal is to help your favorite American brands return a significant amount of their garment manufacturing to the USA. We act as an agency, combining all of the required services to create a FOB USA solution. We strive to make the process as seamless as possible.While it doesn't make sense for all products and categories, we believe that 10% in Ten Years is attainable, and sustainable, without sacrificing margin or quality.1. Nationmade works with brands to identify which products can be successfully produced in the USA.2. Based on the analysis of the survey, Nationmade will create a full-package solution for the client that takes into account all of the critical data: Production qty, specific machinery required, turn time, cost, and regional concerns.3. Nationmade will assist in sourcing fabrics and trims (a combination of domestic and imported), and will create a production plan with the chosen factories to ensure timely production and delivery.4. The Nationmade team manages the entire process from pattern/marker creation, proto and fit sessions, materials logistics, and production finance to create a solution that looks/feels as close to Asian production as possible.5. Prior to delivery, Nationmade contracts with third-party QC teams.Brands that produce in the USA are far more agile, can offer fast-turn and reorder opportunities. Minimums are lower, and compared with surcharges and airfreight from Asia, surprisingly competitive in price.
