Frequently asked questions

Real answers about what working with Portuguese factories actually looks like.

What's the minimum order quantity I should expect?

Most factories in our directory start at 100 units per style and go up to 300. Knitwear and denim specialists often need 200+. The directory tags each factory by MOQ tier so you can filter out ones that won't fit your volume.

How much will my first production run cost?

Typical CMT: €6–11 for a t-shirt, €14–24 for a hoodie, €18–38 for a dress, €35–75 for a jacket. Fabric, complexity, trims, and quantity move it. Use the free Cost Calculator to get a specific estimate before you talk to anyone.

How do I avoid getting scammed?

The directory flags factories we wouldn't use, with reasons. The free Sourcing Checklist covers the 12 questions that reveal a factory's real capacity, their actual QC process, and the documents every serious factory should provide.

Do I need a tech pack to start?

Not to get quotes, but factories take you more seriously with one. If you don't have one, the Tech Pack service (€79) turns your sketches or references into a factory-ready doc in 72 hours. The resulting quotes are noticeably better.

Where are most factories located?

About 90% of Portugal's clothing production is in a 60km triangle between Porto, Braga, and Famalicão, in the north. Knitwear and jersey cluster around Guimarães and Barcelos; denim and outerwear around Famalicão; woven shirts and linen around Braga.
