Clothing Manufacturer for Fashion Startups, Low MOQ, Full Support
ZN Apparel Manufacturers is the manufacturing partner for fashion startups who want to launch correctly from their first order. With a 100-unit MOQ, in-house tech pack development, sampling support, private label capability and a dedicated project manager from day one — we make it possible to launch a clothing brand without the scale that traditional manufacturers require.
Trusted Clothing Manufacturers for Startups and New Clothing Brands
Most clothing manufacturers require 300, 500 or even 1,000 units before accepting an order. ZN Apparel Manufacturers starts at 100 units per style — accessible enough for a first-time brand placing a test run before scaling, and capable enough for an established brand producing 5,000+ units per seasonal drop.

What We Offer Fashion Startups
Tech Pack Development
No tech pack? No problem. Our in-house design team can develop a complete tech pack from your sketch, reference images, sample garment or mood board. Tech pack development is available as an add-on to your first production order.
Sampling & Prototyping
A pre-production sample is produced in 7–10 business days for your approval before bulk production begins. Sample cost is credited in full toward your bulk order once confirmed.
Fabric Guidance
Not sure which fabric to use for your first collection? Our team will walk you through the options — fabric weight, composition, feel and performance — and recommend the right choice for your product and price point.
Private Label from Order One
Custom woven labels, hang tags, heat transfer labels and poly bags are available from your very first order. You do not need to wait until you are ordering 1,000 units to start building a brand presence.
Brand Launch Support
From production planning and sizing guidance to shipping options and reorder timing — our team is available to support first-time brands through every stage of their launch.

FAQ
Startups, answered.
Do I need a tech pack to place my first order?
No. Our in-house design team can develop a tech pack from your sketches, reference images or sample garments. Tech pack development is available as an add-on service to your first production order.
Can I get a private label on a 100-unit order?
Yes. Private label — including woven labels, hang tags and poly bags — is available from your very first order of 100 units. Woven labels have a separate minimum of 500 units but can be pre-ordered alongside your first garment production run.
What if I want to change something after seeing the sample?
That is exactly what samples are for. Most startup orders go through 2-3 sample rounds before bulk production begins. There is no additional charge for the first round of changes to an approved tech pack.
