Default overseas manufacture

I own an Australian based clothing label and I am looking at taking production overseas. Many of my competitors have products produced in Indonesia and seem to be of good quality. I need the products to be from patterns that i have designed myself.
If anyone has any tips/suggestions or even contacts, that would be amazing

Thanks
Brad

Default Re: overseas manufacture

Hey,

I have used printers and manufacturers in the Philippines for products in the past with excellent results. The cost was considerably cheaper than local suppliers/printers too.

However I found it difficult to liase with long postage times to recieve samples and then make changes and so forth, and then I got slamed with customs fees.

For now I am paying the extra for local manufacturing but with a 2 month trip to the philippines in december I will hopefuly set up better communications.
