Sourcing from Pakistan: questions, shipping and checking a factory

Before you order from a factory abroad, check six things: the minimum per style, the sample fee, lead times, payment terms, where the factory is, and who your contact is. Gen-Z Fashion Apparel is in Pakistan, ships by express air (5–7 days) or sea freight (25–35 days), and quotes DDP or FOB, your choice. These guides cover shipping, duties and how to verify a factory is real.
