What to Include in a Bulk Apparel RFQ
Describe the project
Include garment type, reference images or tech pack, fabric requirements and intended customer. List quantities by style, color and size rather than only a total quantity.
Share commercial requirements
State destination, requested delivery window, labeling and packaging needs. Ask the supplier to identify the quotation basis, freight scope, payment stages and validity period.
Separate sampling from production
Request sample scope, development fees, revision arrangements and expected dates. Ask when the bulk production clock begins and which approvals or materials it depends on.
Compare like for like
Compare quotations against the same specifications and delivery basis. Clarify exclusions, inspection arrangements and how design changes affect cost and schedule.
