We are looking to manufacture our new pure silk sleepwear label in Vietnam, we decided not to go down the China / India path mainly because we are such a small new start-up label and our units are very small, at this stage :)  Also we want to be careful and not get ripped-off, we have a friend living in Vietnam who speaks the language so he can help us get things started and keep an eye on everything when we can't be there.

I was in Vietnam last year on holiday, loved the country, people and especially the food! I had a few garments made in famous Hoi An, unfortunately the quality was not great but I thought with more time and guidance it should be possible to produce high quality garments for production.  Everything is so rushed for the tourists, so many corners cut but I you see they are all highly skilled machinists.

So we hope to find a lovely small garment manufacturer in Vietnam, preferably Ha Noi or Hoi An with skilled staff who are able to produce luxury garments that can compete with other high-end international labels.

Ideally we want to build up a good working relationship and grow the business together.  We like the idea of being able to oversee all areas of production and make sure everyone is treated well - no sweat shop!

 

Does anyone have any advice?

Contacts who might be helpful?

Experience Manufacturing in Vietnam?

 

Any help would be much appreciated!!
