PLANNING YOUR COLLECTION
Swimwear MOQs
Our MOQs are not the lowest in Bali, and we are not trying to be. They are set per collection, not per style, at a level that supports commercial viability: enough stock to sell, enough variety to build a brand, and enough volume to justify the investment.
The most common mistake first-time brands make is spreading their order across too many styles and colours. Best sellers show SOLD OUT, loyal customers buy elsewhere, and there are not enough sales to fund a reorder. Brands that get the ratio right sell through cleanly, reorder confidently and grow. We would rather help you get it right first time.
Below are two examples of a typical first order.
Custom Designs
400
Pieces/Style
40Size/Colour
4Example Order
Example: 10 styles at 40 pieces each, in as many colours as you like with at least 4 pieces per size and colour.

Size Ratios
Selecting the right size ratio matters as much as choosing the right styles. S and M sell fastest in most markets, so we recommend starting with 5 S, 5 M and 3 L, based on sales across the brands we work with. We make sizes XS to 3XL to suit your market.
Branding
Branding is what makes a swimwear collection feel considered and worth the price you are asking. We offer a full range of custom-branded options, including heat press logos, electroplated metal bikini fasteners, custom charms, branded zip-lock bags, drawstring bags, hygienic liners, and hang tags.
Discuss your branding requirements with your product development coordinator during sampling. Our graphics team can also assist with your branding and artwork, often at no additional cost, so everything is confirmed and ready before your bulk order is placed.
Approved Samples to Production
When you are ready for bulk, send your approved samples back to us. They become the physical reference for every size we produce. We recommend collection on our DHL account, as Bali customs can be complex, and samples collected this way usually arrive within a few days. Using your own courier? Share your packing list with us before collection.
Quality Control
Each order undergoes a three-stage quality check before branded hang tags and barcodes are applied. Orders are individually packed in biodegradable zip-lock bags and shipped via DHL Express, arriving within 3 to 5 days.
