## Summary

Fabricante familiar em Fradelos, Braga, há 20+ anos. Vestidos, camisas, Blazer. Completo ou CMT.

## About

Confmendes began over 20 years ago under the hands of its founder, working as a feitor (contract manufacturer) for Salsa, whose factory was based right next door. Since the company transitioned to a new generation of leadership after the Covid period, Confmendes has grown into working directly with brands and clients, rather than solely through intermediaries.

Located in Fradelos, Braga, one of Portugal's most important textile regions, Confmendes specializes in tailored, woven-fabric pieces: blazers, blouses, dresses, shirts and skirts, a rarer combination in a market where most factories focus on knitwear.

We offer both Full Package and CMT (Cut, Make, Trim) production, adapting to what each brand needs, whether that means sourcing fabric and components ourselves or working from materials supplied by the client.

Our commitment to quality, precision, and clear communication allows us to build long-term partnerships with brands and clients worldwide. Every garment we produce reflects our attention to detail, consistency, and dedication to meeting our clients' expectations.

## FAQ

### Qual é a vossa quantidade mínima de encomenda (MOQ), e há flexibilidade para novos parceiros?

Na nossa fábrica, o MOQ típico é de 100 unidades por modelo ou cor. Por vezes conseguimos flexibilizar a primeira encomenda para parceiros com quem esperamos crescer, especialmente em linhas próprias. Diz-nos os volumes e o produto, e dizemos-vos o que a nossa linha consegue suportar.

### O que precisam de nós antes de conseguirem orçamentar, amostrar ou agendar o bulk?

Para avançarmos a sério precisamos normalmente de ficha técnica, tabela de medidas, referências de material, faixa de custo alvo, janela de entrega desejada. Para o bulk, precisamos de aprovação das amostras e o nosso sinal habitual antes de reservarmos material e tempo de linha. Se faltar alguma coisa, indicamos claramente o que enviar a seguir.

### Oferecem amostras de desenvolvimento, rondas de fitting ou pequenas séries de pré-produção antes do bulk?

Sim. A nossa equipa pode fazer amostras [proto / fitting / PP] para aprovar construção e materiais antes do bulk. O custo e o prazo dependem de precisarmos ou não de novos moldes ou componentes comprados. Orçamentamos a amostragem antes de cortar seja o que for, para não haver surpresas.
