International vs. Domestic Manufacturing, What You Need To Think About
In today’s episode, Rachel is exploring the nuanced debate of international versus domestic apparel manufacturing. Drawing from Rachel’s extensive experience, we tackle the pressing question of which manufacturing route is best for your apparel brand. We dig into the complexities of cost comparisons, not just focusing on base unit prices but expanding to the additional fees like customs and duties that can heavily influence overall expenses. Using a women's cycling jersey as a practical example, we illuminate how customs codes and duty rates are assigned and their subsequent impact on pricing.
In the realm of manufacturing quality and international shipping, we address common misconceptions and stress that quality isn't solely dependent on the location but on diligent research and forming solid relationships with manufacturers. Rachel is also busting myths about international production, particularly in China, and emphasize the need for visiting production sites to assure quality, regardless of whether they're domestic or overseas.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
-Cost differences and what to consider when working with overseas manufacturers.
-An in-depth explanation of customs and duties fees.
-International shipping options, but be sure to explore the advantages of manufacturing locally.
-The big red flag for why you shouldn’t manufacture in a particular region.
We can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode!
