Portrait of Xi Chen, Sourcing & Production Editor at Fexwear

Xi Chen

Xi Chen covers the part of the process that happens before a sample exists: choosing a factory, writing a usable tech pack, understanding MOQs, and reading a quote that looks cheaper than it is. Her articles cover supplier scorecards, custom sportswear specifications, private-label and white-label routes, and the trade-offs between local and overseas production for small runs. Her reference points are real enquiry threads, rejected artwork files, and the costing breakdowns our sample room produces, so the guidance stays concrete: what a 10-piece-per-colour minimum does to a size run, which details must be fixed before a price can be quoted, and how to compare two factories on the same specification. She deliberately flags where Fexwear cannot give a firm price without a confirmed fabric, and links readers to the free planning tools instead of inventing a number.
