Our Manufacturing Process: Step-by-Step
At [Mishra Traders], we believe that great garments are made not just with fabric and thread, but with precision, passion, and purpose. Over the years, we have refined our manufacturing process to ensure consistent quality, timely delivery, and complete transparency. Whether you’re a startup launching your first fashion line or an established brand looking for a reliable partner, understanding our process will show you the level of detail and dedication we bring to every order.
Here’s a detailed step-by-step overview of how your garments go from concept to creation in our manufacturing unit.
Step 1: Understanding the Client’s Requirement
Everything begins with communication. We start by understanding your vision — the designs you want to produce, the styles, fabrics, sizes, trims, order quantity, and timeline. Whether you have tech packs, reference images, or just a rough idea, our team is here to support and guide you.
We hold a requirement briefing session where we discuss:
-
Number of styles
-
Target audience and market
-
Design details and specifications
-
Branding and labeling needs
-
Packaging requirements
-
Budget and delivery deadlines
This step is crucial because a clear understanding leads to fewer revisions and faster production.
Step 2: Fabric Sourcing
Once the styles are finalized, we move to sourcing the right fabric. We maintain relationships with reliable mills and wholesalers across India to offer a wide range of fabrics including:
-
Cotton (organic & regular)
-
Linen
-
Rayon
-
Viscose
-
Polyester blends
-
Knits and jersey
-
Denim and twill
-
Sustainable fabrics like bamboo, hemp, and Tencel
If a client wants to provide their own fabric, we’re happy to work with it too. Fabric swatches are shared with clients for approval before bulk sourcing begins.
Step 3: Sampling & Prototyping
We believe in “try before you fly.” After finalizing the fabric and style, we develop a sample or prototype of each design. This sample allows the client to:
-
Check the fit, feel, and overall look
-
Suggest design modifications
-
Approve or reject the style for bulk production
This process typically includes:
-
Pattern making (manual or CAD-based)
-
Cutting the sample fabric
-
Stitching with attention to detail
-
Adding trims and branding elements
Once the sample is approved, we proceed to production. If needed, multiple rounds of sampling are done until the client is 100% satisfied.
Step 4: Pattern Making & Grading
After sample approval, the master pattern is created. This pattern acts as the blueprint for the entire production run. We create size sets using grading — a method where the base pattern is adjusted to make other sizes (e.g., S, M, L, XL).
We use CAD software for accuracy and can share digital patterns with clients if required.
Benefits of this stage:
-
Ensures consistent fit across all pieces
-
Minimizes fabric wastage
-
Speeds up cutting process
Step 5: Cutting
Cutting is a critical step that can make or break your product’s quality. We use high-precision cutting tools and layer markers to cut fabric in bulk with minimal wastage.
Our cutting department ensures:
-
Accurate alignment with grain lines
-
Marker planning for efficient layout
-
Clean edges with no fraying
-
Bundle tagging for tracking each piece
After cutting, pieces are carefully checked and handed over to the stitching department.
Step 6: Stitching / Sewing
This is where the magic happens — the cut pieces are stitched together to create the final garment. Our factory has multiple sewing lines with skilled operators who specialize in different types of stitching.
We follow an assembly line method for maximum efficiency and quality. Each garment passes through:
-
Lockstitch, overlock, or flatlock machines
-
Bartack machines for extra durability
-
Specialized machines for zippers, buttons, etc.
Supervisors and quality checkers inspect every stage to prevent defects or errors.
Step 7: Quality Control (Inline & Final)
Quality is not a department at our factory — it’s a mindset. We have strict quality checks at every step:
-
Inline QC: Inspectors monitor stitching, labeling, measurements, and finishing during production.
-
Final QC: Once garments are ready, they undergo a thorough check for:
-
Stitch consistency
-
Loose threads or stains
-
Correct measurements
-
Proper branding and labels
-
Finishing and ironing
-
Any rejected piece is sent back for correction before packing.
Step 8: Branding, Finishing & Ironing
This is where your garments get their final polish. Depending on your needs, we add:
-
Brand labels (main labels, size tags, wash care)
-
Hang tags, barcodes, and price tags
-
Custom trims (zippers, buttons, patches)
-
Heat transfer printing or embroidery
After branding, garments are carefully ironed using steam or heat press machines to remove any creases and improve presentation.
Step 9: Packing
We offer both standard and customized packing options:
-
Individual poly bag packing
-
Bundled packing (5 pcs / 10 pcs)
-
Custom boxes, tissue wrapping, and eco-friendly options
-
Outer cartons labeled with SKU details
We ensure that every piece reaches you in perfect condition, ready for retail or distribution.
Step 10: Dispatch & Logistics
Once packed, the order is handed over to our logistics team. We coordinate with trusted courier partners or client-preferred shippers to ensure timely delivery, both domestic and international.
We share tracking details, invoice, and shipping documents as soon as the order is dispatched. If needed, we also help with:
-
Export documentation
-
Custom clearance support
-
Inventory management for repeat clients
Step 11: Post-Production Support
Our relationship doesn’t end after delivery. We offer post-production support like:
-
Re-ordering assistance
-
Style updates and trend forecasting
-
Feedback handling
-
Warranty on stitching or damage (if under terms)
We believe in building long-term partnerships, not just completing one-time orders.
