If it's different from your approved sample, we remake it.
Counted at our 100% inspection in the Yiwu warehouse before shipping: pieces that don't match your approved sample ÷ total pieces, per order. Defects found in that inspection are remade at our cost and ship with your order.
One hat order: another factory took 3 months. We finished the sample in 5 days and started bulk production.
One K-pop idol merch item made of styrofoam: it had been stuck for 3 months. We solved it in 5 days.
These are single cases, not a promise for every order.
What matters most in a factory is how it consults you, deals with you, and manages your order.
Fixed mid-production
Normally the spec is locked once the order is placed. This was a trim that had not been sewn in yet. We were on the floor, checked where the line had actually got to, and had it changed with no extra cost and no delay. It does not always work; it works when someone knows where your order is on the line.
Rejected, then remade
At the in-line check, pocket seams ran the wrong way on all four colors, left and right legs came out at different lengths, and two sizes had come off the line identical. We rejected the run, had it re-produced, re-inspected it a week later, and only then released it. Read the inspection →

Written by us from our own order records — these are not reviews. Company names are shortened to initials.
We are a good fit for brands producing their own designs who want someone on the ground in China checking the order in person. We are not the right partner for print-on-demand, dropshipping or relabelled blank stock.
Not sure? Send us your product — we will say plainly whether we are the right partner.
Dawn Sourcing is the English-facing name of GD TRADE, a production agent in Yiwu, Zhejiang. It is run by two people you will talk to directly: Fred Lee, who handles buyers in English, and Moonhak Kim, who runs production in the factories.

It depends on the fabric, the construction and your quantity, so we price each style rather than publish a list. Send a product link or photos and we reply with two prices per piece: FOB China and DDP to your door with freight and import duty included.
FOB means you pay for the goods and your own forwarder takes over at the Chinese port. DDP is one price per piece that includes freight, import duty and port fees, and the cartons arrive at your address. A brand without its own forwarder usually finds DDP simplest.
Most styles start at 300 pieces per style. It depends on the fabric, colors and sizes. Factories run best when they cut your own fabric in volume, so send us the style and a rough quantity and we will tell you the minimum for that product before you pay for anything.
Yes. Send the link or photos and, if you know it, how thick the fabric is. We check it internally and reply with FOB and DDP prices per piece. It costs nothing.
No. Photos, a sketch or a sample you want matched are enough to start. We help you turn them into a spec the factory can work to. You can also build one yourself with our free Tech Pack Builder, built on 20,000+ garment patterns.
Sample: 10 days to make; shipping time is separate. Bulk production takes about one month after you approve the final size-and-color set. Sea freight to your country comes on top.
We check incoming fabric, check the line during production, do a final check at the factory, and check and count every piece in our Yiwu warehouse before dispatch. A lot that fails does not ship: it is re-made and checked again first. Inspection is included in the unit price.
No. The guarantee covers defects found in our 100% inspection before shipping, and we remake those at our cost.
You pay for the sample first. After you approve it, you pay a 30% deposit and we make the full size-and-color set, then bulk. You pay the balance after we have checked every piece and confirmed the final count; goods leave China only after full payment.
We are a production agent in Yiwu. We work with partner factories chosen for each product and manage fabric, samples, production, inspection and shipping. You get one all-in unit price: goods, our management, inspection, and with DDP the freight and import duty. No commission, no retainer, no separate QC bill.
Yes — merchandise for a well-known K-pop act, and we are currently producing socks and pajamas for US brands. Client names stay private; most of our current volume is for Korean brands. Before paying anyone, ask for the business license and a sample first. Our license is on our About page, and you pay a deposit only after you approve the sample.
