Product Sampling Services

Sampling Process

We take care of all administrative tasks that come along when dealing with factories and the product lifecycle. This includes handling factory communication, contracts, NDAs, & payment processes- ensuring a easy process for our clients. 

We manage the sample product lifecycle for you to keep development on time!

One of the first steps of the sampling process is utilizing the tech pack(s) to get quotes from factories. The factories will let us know their sample cost and the minimum order quantity required for the product. We choose the best factory for your product goals!

Rad Sourcing can skillfully oversee the sourcing process if you are not familiar with materials. Rad Sourcing has an established network of suppliers on the ground that can find great options of materials for your project.

After the 1st Round Sample, any necessary changes can be scheduled by having a follow up design meeting with one of our designers. We communicate with the factory for you and maintain updates in the tech pack!

Along with the 1st sample, we can request different swatches of fabrics from the factory if you are in-between choices.

After reaching your confirmed sample round, we are a go! We have trusted factory partners and we get the best price for you to go on to the best step- Manufacturing!

Sampling

is a discovery process with factories to find manufacturing solutions for your product. The factory takes your tech pack, and brings your product to life! The sampling process can take 2-3 weeks, and usually requires more than 1 round of samples.

Consistent communication with suppliers guarantees smooth alignment with client expectations across the 1st Proto, 2nd Proto, Photo sample, and SMS phases, ensuring impeccable quality at every stage.
