Build your next knitwear collection with a development plan shaped around your brand. Cainan works with buyers on OEM and ODM projects in Dongguan, China, from an initial brief through sampling and production.

OEM: your design as the starting point

Bring a tech pack, reference sample or established design. We discuss yarn, measurements, construction, finishing and order requirements, then confirm the sample and production scope.

ODM: develop the specifications together

Share your references and collection direction. We discuss the design details that still need to be defined and agree the development work before sampling.

Customization options to discuss

• Yarn, composition, color and target hand feel.
• Knit structure, pattern and garment details.
• Fit, size range and measurement chart.
• Labels, trims, branding and packaging.

From brief to delivery

1. Share your design, quantity, size range and destination.
2. Confirm specifications, quotation and development scope.
3. Develop a sample in approximately one week.
4. Review and approve the material, fit and finishing.
5. Plan bulk production, normally 20–30 days.
6. Confirm packing and delivery arrangements.

What to include in your enquiry

Send a tech pack or reference images, preferred material, quantity per color, size chart and delivery destination. Include any testing, compliance or inspection requirements so the scope can be confirmed before development.
