Customer-Supplied Fabric (CSM) to a China Suit Factory: What You Must Confirm
Shi Yuan Suit Factory accepts customer-supplied fabric (CSM) for overseas custom shops, MTM boutiques, and private-label brands when the cloth, meters, and ship-to details are confirmed in writing before cut. MTM starts from 1; bulk OEM from 50; sample 7–14 days after measurements and fabric are confirmed; production 14–21 days after confirmation. We do not invent mill names, prices, or “guaranteed” yields on a public page.
This page is a buyer checklist for CSM—not a retail fabric shop. Acumenwear is our English export site; the factory brand is Shi Yuan (Baodi, Tianjin · Chengxingwang · Est. 2009). Legal name: Tianjin Shiyuan Tongchuang Technology Co., Ltd.
What CSM means at Shi Yuan
CSM means you (or your mill agent) send the cloth we will cut. We do not take ownership of your mill relationship. Partner make pricing is quoted ex-works on request; fabric cost stays on your side unless we agree a full-package path separately.
What you must confirm before we cut
Send these in one WhatsApp brief (or email follow-up) before the sample clock starts:
Fabric identity: mill / book / article / colorway as your mill labels it
Composition and weight (as stated on the mill ticket or your PO)
Usable width and total meters shipped (jacket + trouser + contingency)
Directional / nap / pattern-match notes if the cloth needs them
Construction preference: fused / half canvas / full canvas (per order)
Measurements or size blocks for the sample
Courier tracking to our Baodi address (below)
Whether leftover meters stay with us for bulk or return to you
Incomplete CSM briefs create silent delays. Missing meters or width is the most common stop.
Shipping fabric to the factory
Courier destination for logistics briefs:
Building 3, Park 2, Chengxingwang Zhigu, Jingjin Zhongguancun Science Park, Baodi District, Tianjin, China.
Spell Chengxingwang exactly. Put your shop or brand name + “fabric for sample / bulk” on the airway bill so inbound staff can match the parcel to your WhatsApp thread.
Yield and contingency (no fake numbers)
We will not publish a universal “X meters per suit” figure here—cloth width, pattern layout, and model change consumption. Ask on WhatsApp for a written meter estimate for your model after you share width and style. Bring contingency meters for first samples; reorders get tighter once a sealed sample exists.
Sample path with your cloth
WhatsApp intro: country, shop type, CSM plan, construction preference
Fabric arrives and is matched to your brief
Measurements confirmed
Sample cut: 7–14 days after measurements and fabric confirmation
You review; seal in writing (or request a quoted revision)
Bulk (from 50) or MTM reorders: production 14–21 days after confirmation
Sample fee and inbound/outbound shipping are quoted on WhatsApp. Sample fee credit toward first bulk applies only when agreed in writing.
When CSM is the wrong path
If you do not yet have mill access, say so early. We can discuss stock or mill-indent options case by case—still without publishing dollar prices. Do not assume we hold open stock of every cloth you name.
Who this is for
Overseas custom tailor shops sending client or house cloth
MTM boutiques locking a mill book before private-label bulk
Private-label brands with existing mill contracts
Not for walk-in consumers buying a lifestyle label under our name.
