Nylon Zipper Sourcing Program for Chef Wear Suppliers: Sneakers
Nylon Zipper Programme for Chef Wear Suppliers: Sneakers
This programme covers the full path from a nylon zipper requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for chef wear suppliers. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 25 mm Width, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one. It is built around sneakers, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in nylon zipper sourcing is not price — it is drift. A base material changes mill, the shade moves, a plating bath changes and the item quietly stops matching the approved sample. We prevent that with a written spec, an approved counter sample and a golden sample retained at the factory.
What the programme covers
- Specification build from your tech pack or a physical reference sample
- Base material and finish options with costed alternatives
- Sampling, testing and approval against REACH SVHC Screening
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Bamboo — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- Cotton — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- Wood — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- Acrylic — selected for colour depth and finish stability

FAQ
What are the payment and delivery terms?
Standard terms are a deposit with the order and the balance before shipment, under EXW / FOB / CIF / DDP as agreed.
Do you hold stock for reorders?
Approved specifications are kept on file and, for repeat programmes, base material can be reserved against a rolling forecast.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 500 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
Can you match a physical sample?
Yes. Send the reference and we reverse engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk commitment.
Send the reference sample or tech pack and we will come back with a costed specification, a sampling timetable and the compliance documents your market requires.
