Apparel product developers in California

A product developer runs the whole path from idea to a production-ready sample: fabric, factory, samples, fittings and costing. Brands launching their first collection usually start here. The apparel product developers below are based in California, so fittings and factory visits can happen in person.

What to ask before you hire

  1. Which parts do you do yourself and which do you bring in?
  2. How do you bill pass-through costs like samples and fabric?
  3. Which factories have you placed product like mine with?
  4. Can I see the agreement before we start: what's included, how many rounds, and what costs extra?
Not sure who fits?

Post a brief once: what you're making, your budget and timeline. Consultants who fit reply to you, and Runsheet takes no fee.
