Lead time starts before sewing
Fabric sourcing, trim confirmation, pattern work and sample approval can affect the whole production calendar before bulk sewing begins.

Small-batch orders may be faster, but they still require fabric, cutting, sewing, finishing, inspection and packing control.
Private label details can extend timing
Labels, hang tags, packaging and carton marks should be confirmed early to avoid delays after garments are finished.
