Buyer FAQ

Quick answers before your first conversation.

Need something specific? Email [email protected] or message us on WhatsApp.

01 Is the 200-piece MOQ per order or per design?

The standard starting point is 200 pieces per design. Color splits and special materials should be confirmed during quotation because their minimums can vary.

02 Can Anthea help if I do not have a tech pack?

Yes. You can begin with a logo, sketch, reference image or mood board. The design team can translate it into a production-ready specification before sampling.

03 How long does sampling take?

Standard physical sampling is typically 7-10 business days after the design, materials and customization details are confirmed.

04 How do you keep bulk production consistent with the sample?

The approved pre-production sample becomes the reference standard. Color, structure, logo placement, stitching, labels and packaging are checked during production and again before shipment.

05 Can you ship directly to the United States or Europe?

Anthea supports express, air and sea freight to global markets. Available shipping terms and customs support depend on the destination and order size.
