Retail and Supermarket Buyers
Private-label towel ranges built to a shelf price and a launch date
The Situation
What Buying Looks Like In This Sector
A retail towel programme has two hard constraints: the shelf price and the on-shelf date. Everything else, the weight, the size, the decoration and the packing, is negotiable to protect those two. We quote by working backwards from them rather than from a fixed product list.
Pain Points
- The landed cost model breaks when the sample comes back heavier than specified
- A range dyed in separate lots does not look like a range on the shelf
- Compliance rejects a shipment because the test documents are out of date
- A late delivery misses the planogram change and the space is given away
Requirements
What This Buyer Actually Needs
- A weight and size combination that hits a target shelf price
- Colour continuity across a range and across reorders
- Retail packing, header cards, hang tags and barcodes applied at source
- Current test documents supplied with the shipment

Questions From Retail and Supermarket Buyers
Can you build a range to a target shelf price?
Yes. Tell us the landed cost you need per piece and the quantity, and we will show you which size, weight and decoration combinations reach it.
How do you keep a range looking like a range?
The pieces are woven from the same yarn and dyed in the same lot against one approved lab dip, rather than being sourced item by item.
Can you apply our retail packaging at source?
Yes. Header cards, hang tags, woven labels, barcodes and printed retail bags are applied during packing when you send the artwork with the order.
What happens if we reorder next season?
Send us the previous order reference. We match the original lab dip so the reorder sits beside the stock already on the shelf.
What are the standard payment terms?
30% T/T deposit with the order and 70% balance before shipment, or an L/C at sight.
