How to Reduce Lead Time on Bra Orders

Lead time is driven by sampling rounds, fabric availability and production queue. You can shorten all three with good preparation.

Plan around peak seasons, when factories are busiest, and keep your size curve realistic. A clear, complete brief is the single biggest factor in a fast turnaround.
