Who Is Chanjoye For

We work best with founders who value quality and partnership — here is how to tell if we are a fit.

Suitable for Chanjoye

  • Startups needing 30–3,000 pieces per design
  • Brands that want full-package: design → delivery
  • Founders who value fabric quality and fit consistency
  • Teams needing custom hang tags, labels, and poly bags
  • Businesses shipping to North America, Europe, and Asia
  • Creatives who want tech packs reviewed before sampling

Not a Good Fit

  • Buyers seeking the absolute lowest price at any quality
  • Orders under 30 pieces per design (except basic reorders)
  • No tech pack, sketch, or reference sample of any kind
  • Rush delivery under 14 calendar days from order placement
  • Single-piece DTC dropshipping with no bulk production plan
  • Unwilling to invest in a pre-production sample for approval

Your Startup Journey with Chanjoye

From your first sketch to the final carton — here is how we turn ideas into inventory.

Consultation step

Material selection step

Fabric & Material Sourcing

We source from certified mills across China — heavyweight cotton, French terry, nylon, denim, fleece — and ship swatches for your approval before cutting a single piece.

Sampling step

Sampling & Fit Approval

Receive a pre-production sample in 7–10 days. Check fit, fabric feel, print quality, and construction. We iterate until you sign off — however many rounds it takes.

Case Study

How NOMAD Studios Launched with 300 Pieces and Sold Out in 6 Weeks

A Toronto-based streetwear startup came to Chanjoye with hand-drawn sketches and a tight launch deadline. We sourced heavyweight 420 GSM French terry, developed custom puff-print hoodies with embroidered sleeve logos, and delivered 300 units in under 28 days. NOMAD sold out their first drop in six weeks with a 72% margin — and reordered 600 pieces before the second month.

"Chanjoye treated our tiny first order like we were a million-dollar brand. The attention to detail on stitching and print placement was unreal. We honestly could not believe the quality at our MOQ." — Marcus T., Founder, NOMAD Studios

Frequently Asked Questions

What is your absolute minimum order quantity?

Our standard MOQ is 30 pieces per design. For simple reorders of existing styles, we can sometimes accommodate 20 pieces. We do not offer single-piece production or sample-only orders without a confirmed bulk production plan.

How long does it take from design to delivery?

Typical timeline: 24-hour quoting, 7–10 days for pre-production sampling, 15–25 days for bulk production after sample approval, and 18–25 days for sea freight to the US. Total door-to-door is approximately 6–8 weeks for a first-time order.

Do I need a full tech pack to get started?

No — we can work from sketches, reference images, or photos of garments you want to replicate. A tech pack speeds up the process, but our team includes pattern makers who can build specifications from your creative direction. The more detail you provide, the more accurate your first sample will be.

What printing and decoration methods do you offer?

We offer screen printing (plastisol and water-based), direct-to-garment (DTG), puff print, foil transfer, standard embroidery, 3D puff embroidery, appliqué, and all-over sublimation printing. Multiple techniques can be combined on a single garment.

How do you handle quality control for small orders?

Every order regardless of size goes through our three-stage QC process: fabric inspection upon arrival, inline inspection during production, and a final AQL 2.5 inspection before packing. You receive a photo QC report showing measurements, stitching details, print placement, and packaging before your order ships.
