Private Label
Private Label Clothing Manufacturing
Your brand on the label, our factory floor behind it. We produce finished, retail-ready garments under your name — you own the design and the customer, we own the making.
Your brand, our factory floor. We produce finished garments under your label, ready to sell — you own the design, we own the making.
Private label manufacturing is the most direct way to build a clothing brand without owning a factory. You bring the brand — the name, the designs, the identity your customers recognise — and we turn it into garments that carry your labels and nothing of ours. Every piece that leaves our floor looks, feels, and reads as if your own workshop made it.
For a growing label, that arrangement removes the single biggest barrier to scaling: capital tied up in machines, floor space, and a payroll of tailors. Instead of running production, you run the brand. We handle cutting, stitching, decoration, finishing, and packing, and hand you back cartons of garments ready to photograph, list, and sell.
We have manufactured this way for more than fifty brands, from first-time founders ordering thirty pieces to established labels moving tens of thousands of units a season. The process is the same at either end: your specification, our accountability, and one team you can call when you need an answer rather than a chain of suppliers pointing at each other.
Because we also run our own label, Urbanflaky, we know what it costs a brand when a manufacturer cuts a corner. That is the standard we hold your production to — the one we would want for our own product.
How we do it.
A clear, accountable path from your brief to a result you have approved — with nothing lost between steps.
-
01
Share your brand and design
It starts with what you already have — a tech pack, a reference garment, a set of sketches, or simply a clear idea of the product. We review your designs, labels, and quality expectations, and flag anything that will affect cost, fit, or lead time before it becomes a problem rather than after.
-
02
Sampling and fit approval
We develop a pre-production sample that matches your specification — fabric, fit, construction, and decoration. You review it in your hands, request changes, and we iterate until it is exactly the garment you want to sell. Nothing moves to bulk until you have signed the sample off.
-
03
Fabric and trims sourcing
Once the sample is approved we source the bulk fabric and trims — neck tapes, care labels, hang tags, drawcords, and packaging — matched to the sample and tested for GSM, shrinkage, and colourfastness so the full run behaves like the piece you held.
-
04
Bulk cutting and stitching
Your order moves onto managed cutting and stitching lines. Because the same team runs the whole floor, the standard set in your sample holds from the first unit to the last, whether that is a run of thirty pieces or three thousand.
-
05
Decoration and labelling
Printing, embroidery, and your brand labels are applied in-house. Keeping decoration under our own roof means colours match your reference, placements stay consistent, and there is no third party to coordinate — or to blame — when a detail matters.
-
06
Quality check, finishing and dispatch
Every garment is checked, trimmed, pressed, folded, tagged, and packed to your specification. We run in-line and end-line inspections, then dispatch retail-ready cartons — or ship direct to your customers if you sell online.
Why it works.
What working with a direct manufacturer actually changes for your brand.
-
Your brand, start to finish
Nothing we make carries our name. Neck labels, care labels, hang tags, and packaging are all yours, so the customer only ever sees your brand — never ours.
-
Low minimums to start
You can begin at thirty pieces per style — low enough to test a design in the market before committing capital to a large run, and high enough to price sensibly.
-
One accountable maker
No brokers, no middlemen, no chain of subcontractors. One team owns the result, so when you need a change or an answer there is a single person to call.
-
Consistent quality at any volume
The same lines and the same checks apply whether you order thirty pieces or thirty thousand, so your reorders match your first run instead of drifting.
-
A faster route to market
With sampling in around fifteen days and decoration handled in-house, you spend less time coordinating suppliers and more time selling the product.
-
Room to grow
As your label scales, production scales with it on the same floor, so you never have to re-qualify a new manufacturer in the middle of your growth.
Questions, answered.
Still unsure? Ask us directly — we reply within one business day.
What is the minimum order for private label production?
Our standard minimum is thirty pieces per style, and you can usually split that across a couple of colours and a full size range. It is deliberately low so a new brand can test a design without ordering hundreds of units up front, then scale the styles that sell.
Will the garments carry only my brand?
Yes. Private label means the finished product carries your neck labels, care labels, and hang tags, and arrives in your packaging. Nothing identifies us as the manufacturer — to your customer, it is entirely your product.
Do I need a tech pack to get started?
It helps, but it is not essential. If you have a tech pack we work to it precisely. If you only have sketches, a reference garment, or an idea, we can develop the pattern and specification with you through our brand launch support.
How long does a private label order take?
A first sample typically takes around fifteen days. After you approve it, bulk production usually runs thirty to forty-five days depending on quantity, fabric availability, and decoration. We confirm exact timelines before you commit.
Can you match a garment I already sell?
Often, yes. Send us the reference piece and we will assess the fabric, construction, and fit, then build a sample to match as closely as the materials allow. It is a common way for brands to move production to us without changing their product.
What fabrics can you use for private label garments?
Mostly knitwear and cut-and-sew — single jersey, heavyweight cotton up to 240 GSM, French terry, fleece, and blends. If you have a specific fabric in mind we will source and test it; see our fabric sourcing service for the detail.
Can you produce a full collection, not just one style?
Yes. Many brands run several styles with us in a single production cycle — tees, hoodies, and more — sharing fabric and decoration where it makes sense. Each style still meets the thirty-piece minimum, and we sequence them so the collection lands together rather than trickling in.
Do you keep my designs and labels confidential?
Yes. Your designs, patterns, and brand materials are yours, and we treat them as confidential. We manufacture them for you and do not resell your styles or use your branding on other clients' work — the whole point of private label is that the product is only ever yours.
