Fashion Suppliers

Shuimu · 12-07-2009, 09:12 PM

I started a biz at a wet market shop. I notice the stalls around me selling clothes fm $8 to $15..that is about my cost price. How did they get such cheap supply? I cant afford big quantity as I dont hv traffic volume.
Can anyone know of this type of supplier without minimum qty? I usually get at
City Plaza. pls pm me..thanks.

Hi Shuimu,

You have to do a trip to Bangkok or China with an empty shopping bag.

Price is only one of the available strategies. But not viable in the long term.

Rather think of building a brand...
have a consistent look and feel in the shop...
dare to focus on a single theme eg. floral
or even a single category eg. cheongsam

differentiate from the rest of the stores

also you need to have an online channel
blogshop, online shop, ebay etc.

all the best on your new venture!
