DESIGN
FROM IDEA TO REALITY
As a full-service sourcing company, when a client needs apparel design solutions or wants to develop a new product from scratch, we don’t wave them goodbye. At GMS LAB, our dedicated design and R&D teams collaborate with clients to turn ideas into customized garments. The best part is, they do this by using 3D technology, which enables making design decisions by visualizing the garment digitally. For more details about our design service, please visit GMS LAB.
QUALITY CONTROL
NO BROKEN ZIPPERS
When it comes to manufacturing, quality control is our top priority, that’s why we have a team of QC experts as full-time employees. Our inspectors provide comprehensive quality inspections to ensure high quality in every step of the manufacturing process, starting with pre-production samples. The services offered include conducting manual tests to detect any garment defects such as tear strength and broken zippers, as well as chemical analysis for toxic and restricted substances.
LOGISTICS
FINAL STEP, HANDLED WITH CARE.
Working with a network of international couriers, GMS coordinates the whole shipping and logistics process, ensuring that the products reach their final destination safely and on time. Providing a strategic logistics plan tailored to each client’s needs, our team of experts customize each shipment to minimize costs and stress, managing the complexities of consolidating goods from multiple locations and handling all the tedious paperwork.
CONSULTING
WE GOT YOU COVERED!
GMS provides consulting expertise in every step of garment sourcing, so that no client bangs his head against the wall for making not-so-good decisions.
MANUFACTURING
KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON...
GMS is proud to bring a streamlined approach to garment manufacturing. Once we receive the purchase order based on submitted samples, we return to our large database of international factories to choose the most suitable facility depending on the client’s or a specific product’s requirements, and get quotes from multiple factories to find the perfect match. Once production starts, our dedicated production managers who are strategically located in areas within close proximity to the manufacturers and suppliers, follow up all the sequential processes at ground level to ensure high quality and timely delivery.
CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR)
MAKING SURE ALL IS FAIR
GMS is a member of the Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI), one of the leading global standards for ethical and social compliance for the textile industry, to ensure and improve good working conditions of the entire supply chain.
Following an intensive guideline that covers environment, health and safety, ethics and sustainability topics, our CSR experts who actively participate in relevant international forums and conferences, provide expert auditing and consulting services to ensure all practices in our entire supply chain are accountable in respecting their social, ethical and legal responsibilities.
SUSTAINABILITY
RAISING THE STANDARDS.
Within GMS, a dedicated team works to fulfill sustainable sourcing requirements and guide clients to make well-informed and responsible choices through the entire process. Providing an extensive library of sustainable fabrics and accessories, as well as digital traceability tools that enable the requirements to be traced, we make sure our clients work with the best-matched material and supplier.
In the world of fashion and textiles, “sustainable” is not a one-fits-all label. Garments are identified by various types of standards and certifications depending on how they are treated during production.
