How to Choose a USA or Los Angeles Clothing Label Manufacturer

The best label supplier is not simply the company with the lowest unit price. Apparel brands should compare production location, materials, minimums, proofing, color capability, fold and cut options, communication and the ability to support repeat orders consistently.

Ask where each product is made

A supplier may use different production locations for different label types. Hi-Tech states that all of its printed labels are made in the USA, while woven labels are available through U.S. and overseas production. Ask this question product by product rather than assuming one answer applies to the entire catalog.

Match capability to the artwork

Fine text, many colors, special folds and small finished sizes can change the manufacturing approach. Send actual artwork early so the supplier can recommend a practical construction.

Compare service, not only price

Fast quoting, proofing, sample access and reliable reorders reduce production risk. Local Los Angeles buyers may also value the ability to discuss a job with a nearby team.
