LXSC sourcing guide: catalogue wholesale from 100 pieces per model; new-design development from 10,000 pieces

A repeat order should reproduce an approved specification, not simply reuse a model name. Preserve the sample reference, size chart, materials, color approval and packaging version. These records help a buyer identify what changed if a later batch produces different fit feedback.

Create a repeat-order reference record

Use one record for the original approved configuration and a new revision when a change is accepted. Keep model and commercial order numbers separate; the same model may be ordered with different labels or packaging. Where practical, retain a protected physical reference and dated photographs that show construction details.

Approved deviationsMakes exceptions visible rather than assumed

Approve substitutions before production

If a fabric, elastic, pad or shade is unavailable, ask for the proposed replacement and its likely effects on fit, care and appearance. Do not treat a similar-looking material as automatically equivalent. Record who accepted the change and whether new samples are required. Update the quotation and product information when the accepted specification changes.

Compare batches with the same checks

Use the agreed points of measure and inspection conditions for the original and repeat samples. Record the batch, affected variants and observed issue instead of only writing quality changed. Resolve complaints against the purchase agreement and preserve the corrective action. Response speed alone is not proof that the correction worked.

Measure the right type of repeat business

A wholesale buyer reordering from a factory and a retail customer purchasing again are different events. If you report a repeat-customer rate, define the customer identifier, qualifying purchase and time window; several orders from one buyer are not several repeat customers. Use actual inventory and confirmed production dates for replenishment, rather than assuming the previous lead time still applies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the same model code guarantee the same batch?+

No. Retain the approved specification and confirm materials, size chart, color and packaging for each repeat order.

Can I approve a replacement fabric from a photo alone?+

A photo can show appearance but not establish equivalent fit or performance. Decide what sample and technical checks the change requires.

Send your model or project requirements, quantities, size and color plan, and destination. Julie can confirm the applicable order route and what the quotation includes.

Existing-style wholesale starts from 100 pieces per model. Original-design custom production starts from 10,000 pieces. Color and size allocation, branding and packaging terms are confirmed separately.
