Case Study: Custom Jacquard Webbing for a Promotional Product Agency in Saudi Arabia

Jacquard Webbing for a Promotional Product Agency in Saudi Arabia

A Promotional Product Agency approached us with a jacquard webbing requirement for the Saudi Arabia market. The brief was specific: a defined look, a hard launch date and a unit cost that had to survive freight and duty. This case study records what was specified, what went wrong in sampling and how the bulk order was delivered.

The challenge

• MOQ that was quoted per colourway rather than per style
• Cartons packed to the factory ratio instead of the buyer's size ratio
• Lead time quoted without the plating or dyeing sub-process

What we specified

How it was resolved

1. We rebuilt the specification around Polyester and locked the tolerance before bulk.
2. The finish was moved to Nickel-Free Electroplating after strike-off tests showed better durability.
3. A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
4. Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
5. Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and ratio specification.

Result

• 10,000 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the original quotation.
• Inspection-related rejection stayed under 0.5%.
• The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.

What we would repeat

Keep one accountable owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not from machines.
