Product and branding
Provide the catalog ID, target quantity per color, logo artwork, preferred logo location, material requirements and performance targets. Request a marked artwork proof and a physical sample where appearance or fit matters.
Retail and marketplace packaging
Specify retail box or carry bag, carton pack, instruction language, barcode artwork, country-of-origin marking and channel-specific labeling needs. For Amazon or another marketplace, share the current preparation requirements for your account and fulfillment route.
MOQ and tooling are separate decisions
A stock-format product, a custom color and a new mold may have different minimum quantities and fees. Ask for each cost separately, including tooling ownership, maintenance, exclusivity and design rights where applicable. Catalog MOQs do not establish custom-order MOQs.
Approve before production
- Confirm the quotation and exact specification.
- Review artwork and sample; record changes in writing.
- Approve the reference sample, packaging and inspection criteria.
- Confirm production milestones and the procedure for changes.
