Most clothing factories aren't built for startups. They want 500–1,000 piece minimums, assume you arrive with a finished tech pack, and treat a small first order as a nuisance. That's exactly the gap Potato Apparel was built to fill — professional manufacturing for new and small brands, without the minimums or the cold shoulder.
Our MOQ starts at 50 pieces per style, with color and size mixing allowed, so you can launch a real product without gambling thousands of dollars on stock you can't sell yet. For a first-time founder, that difference is the difference between starting and not starting.
We also know that most startups don't arrive with a perfect tech pack — and that's fine. We guide you through the parts you haven't figured out yet: choosing the right fabric and GSM for your product and price, advising on fit and construction, and turning a reference garment or even a sketch into a proper specification. You get a dedicated contact, not a faceless quote inbox.
The process is built to protect a small budget. A 7–10 day sample lets you hold the real product before committing to bulk, so there are no expensive surprises. Every order ships with AQL 2.5 inspection, because a startup can't afford a bad first batch — your launch depends on it.
From your first sample to your first reorder, we treat a 50-piece startup order with the same care as a large one. Whether you're launching a tee, a hoodie, or a small capsule, we help you get a quality product to market without the barriers that stop most new brands before they begin.

Ce que nous produisons pour vous
Foire aux questions
I have never manufactured before. Can you still help me?
Absolutely — first-time founders are a big part of who we work with. We guide you through fabric choice, fit, construction, labeling, and packaging, and we can build a tech pack and sample from a reference garment or a sketch.
What is the real minimum I can order?
50 pieces per style, with colors and sizes mixed within that. Fully custom items with unique fabric or all-over print may need 100 pcs per colorway, and we will always tell you up front.
How do I avoid wasting my limited budget on mistakes?
Start with a sample. For 7–10 business days and a modest sample fee (usually credited against bulk), you hold the actual product and confirm everything before committing your budget to a production run.
Will a small order get the same quality attention?
Yes. Every order — 50 pieces or 5,000 — goes through the same AQL 2.5 inspection with a report before shipment. Your launch quality does not depend on order size.
