Velour Fabric for an Amazon Private Label Seller in Indonesia
An Amazon Private Label Seller approached us with a velour fabric requirement for the Indonesia 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
- Elastic that lost recovery after three washes
- A compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped
What we specified
| Item | Velour Fabric |
|---|---|
| Client type | An Amazon Private Label Seller |
| Market | Indonesia |
| Order volume | 50,000 pieces across 4 specifications |
| Base material | Recycled PET |
| Standard size | 110 gsm |
| Finish | Pearlescent Coating |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 5 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
| Compliance | WRAP |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the specification around Recycled PET and locked the tolerance before bulk.
- The finish was moved to Chrome Plating after strike-off tests showed better durability.
- A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
- Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
- Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and ratio specification.
Result
- 50,000 pieces delivered inside the 5-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the original quotation.
- Inspection-related rejection stayed under 1.0%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Lock the material standard before sampling. Once the base changes, every downstream approval has to be redone and the calendar slips.
