IK Apparel checks fabric quality, GSM, cutting accuracy, neckline shape, stitching strength, hem finish, print or embroidery quality, label placement, measurements, finishing, and packaging before dispatch.
During production, we can share real-time updates through WhatsApp and Email with photos or videos. This helps UK buyers stay informed without visiting the factory.
