How to Get a Written Quote and Start One Sample Suit

This is the contact playbook for overseas custom tailor shops, MTM boutiques, and private-label brands who want a written ex-works quote and optionally one sample from Shi Yuan Suit Factory.

Preferred channel

WhatsApp is the preferred day-to-day English channel for overseas partners.

What to send for a useful quote (not a blind number)

Include all five points:

  1. Country / destination market

  2. MTM or bulk (or both)

  3. Monthly / order volume (approximate)

  4. Construction preference: fused / half canvas / full canvas (or ask for a recommendation)

  5. Fabric plan: your cloth vs mill program; measurements ready or not

Optional but helpful: shop type, label readiness, target ship week.

What you get back

A written reply covering:

  • Whether you sit on MTM from 1 or bulk OEM from 50

  • Sample path timing (7–14 days after measurements + fabric confirmed)

  • Production window (14–21 days after confirmation)

  • Sample fee and shipping quote before we start (when you request a sample)

  • An ex-works range and what is included—before you pay for a sample when quoting production intent

We do not publish a public dollar price list. Partner pricing depends on construction, fabric, and volume.

Sample start (one garment)

  1. Send the five points above

  2. Receive sample fee + shipping quote on WhatsApp

  3. Confirm measurements and fabric

  4. Sample made in 7–14 days after confirmation

  5. Review → seal in writing → produce if you proceed

  6. Sample fee credited toward first bulk when agreed in writing
