Step-1
Style sample (Closest available fabrics and trims)
Step-2
Preparation of shipping samples & sending to buyer through proper packing & documentation
Shipping:
The procedure of transporting an item, usually through the email.
Shipment is a very basic, common way of getting an item from one place to

department take extra care to make it. It is send to buyer by air for going
early.
Sending
Procedure of Shipping Sample:
- Making according to the measurement sheet.
- Quality check.
- Ironing.
- Labeling.
- Poly bagging.
- Forwarding letter.
- Measurement sheet.
- Finally re-check.
- Send to buyer by courier
Trims card preparation and submission to buyer for approvel
Submission
of Trims
Before
apparel production begins, it is critical that the buyer approves all
components that will comprise the finished product. Some buyers will require
review of all trims and others will require the approval of major trim
components only. For example, some buyers will want to see examples of the
actual sewing thread. However, others may not require viewing the thread. It is
important to understand what the buying company wishes to review prior to
production. Experienced fashion merchants will require that you submit trim
submissions on an appropriate form. This allows both the supplier and the
purchaser to Pre-Production Processes in Garment Manufacturing
Preparation & conducting of pre-production meeting in factory required for production planning in factory Pre-production meeting in factory:
Pre-production
meeting – once pre-production (PP) sample is approved (also called sealer
sample) and most of the trims are sourced, merchants or production planning
department conduct pre-production meeting with production team, quality team
and sourcing team. All-important comments, procedures to be followed, dos and
don’ts are discussed. Scheduling of PCD (planned cut date) and shipment date is
announced to all teams. Production plans, Material planning and line planning –
to start production on time and ship the order on time planning is must.
Planning is needed for material sourcing, production capacity, line planning.
Scheduling of jobs and responsibility is defined at this stage.How to Calculate Carton & Poly Consumption in Apparel Industry?
Carton & poly consumption is a very important
matter in readymade garments sector. Every garments merchandiser should have
clear idea about it. Though there are so many garments merchandisers, whom have
no correct idea about carton & poly consumption. As its importance in
garments merchandising, today I will present here an easy method for carton
consumption calculation in apparel industry.
Carton
& Poly Consumption methods:
Carton
consumption
Suppose,
Length
= 60 cm
Width
= 40 cm
Height
= 40 cm
=2(L+W+Allounce
5cm) * (W+H+Allounce 2.5cm)
10000
= 2(60+40+5) *(40+402.5)
10000
=
17325 / 1000
=1.7325

Merchandising activities on Quality control
The
main objective of quality control is to ensure that goods are produced to the
first customer (Direct Order) and hopefully to the second customer
(Recorder/Alter order/ new order) as well. If both customers can be satisfied
then the manufacturer products are more likely to continue to be in demand.
Satisfactory quality can only be ensured through (from the manufacturer pint of
view)
- Knowing the customers‟ needs.
- Designing to meet them
- Faultless construction- manufacture.
- Certified performance and safety.
- Clear instruction manuals.
- Suitable packing.
- Prompt delivery.
- Feed back of field experience.
Satisfaction
quality can be ensured from the customer from the customer‟s point of view by
Merchandising activities on production follow up
Production
plan After receive a purchase order from buyer merchandiser have to sit
with production planner to make a production plan. Production plan contain
below things
- Planned date to start knitting/ weaving to make the required fabrics.
- Planned date to start dyeing to color the fabrics.
