Private Label Clothing
Launch your clothing brand with trusted global manufacturers.
What is Private Label Clothing?
Private label clothing refers to apparel manufactured by a third party and branded under your company’s name. Unlike white-label products, private-label apparel can be customized in fabric, fit, colors, labeling, and packaging to reflect your brand identity. Importivity helps you navigate this process, from factory sourcing to final delivery, ensuring you maintain brand control and supply chain resilience.
Private Label Clothing Case Study
A luxury bedding company in Los Angeles faced 25% Section 301 tariffs on Chinese imports. Importivity created a tariff-resilient sourcing strategy by developing parallel supply lines in Vietnam and Turkey. We also worked with U.S. partners for specialized finishes. The result? Tariff exposure was reduced by 70%, while margins were protected and delivery timelines improved.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you need further assistance, feel free to reach out to our team!
What is private label clothing and how does it work?
Private label clothing means manufacturing apparel under your brand name instead of selling generic products. With Importivity, we handle the full process, from factory sourcing and fabric selection to packaging and compliance, so you can launch a clothing line that is uniquely yours.
Why should I choose private label clothing over wholesale?
Wholesale clothing limits your brand identity and reduces profit margins. Private label clothing gives you full control over design, quality, and branding while cutting out middlemen, resulting in higher margins and a stronger long-term brand presence.
How do I find reliable private label clothing manufacturers?
Importivity leverages a vetted global network of factories in Vietnam, China, Mexico, and the U.S. We audit and negotiate with suppliers on your behalf to ensure they meet your quality, compliance, and capacity needs.
What types of apparel can Importivity help me produce?
We support a wide range of categories, including t-shirts, activewear, denim, outerwear, uniforms, high-end luxury apparel, and performance fabrics. Whether you need fast-fashion or technical textiles, we connect you with the right manufacturer.
How much does private label clothing cost to produce?
Costs depend on fabrics, order volume, and country of manufacture. Vietnam and Mexico often provide tariff-resilient and cost-effective solutions, while U.S. factories deliver premium compliance and “Made in America” advantages. Importivity will build a cost model for your specific needs.
Do private label clothing lines need to meet compliance requirements?
Yes. Apparel must follow textile labeling rules (fiber content, country of origin, care instructions), and in the U.S. must comply with FTC and CPSIA standards. Importivity ensures your private label clothing is fully compliant across all target markets.
Can I start small with private label clothing, or do I need large orders?
We support both small runs for startups and large-scale production for established brands. Our process begins with sampling and prototyping, so you can validate designs before committing to higher MOQs.
How does Importivity help with tariffs and logistics for private label clothing?
We develop tariff-resilient sourcing strategies, often diversifying across multiple countries like Vietnam or Mexico to reduce Section 301 exposure from China. We also manage shipping, customs, and last-mile logistics to simplify delivery.
Can Importivity help me with private label clothing packaging?
Absolutely. We design and source custom boxes, branded tags, and eco-friendly packaging that not only protect your apparel but also enhance your customer’s unboxing experience.
Why choose Importivity for private label clothing sourcing?
Unlike sourcing agents who only connect you to a factory, Importivity provides end-to-end services, sourcing, design support, prototyping, compliance, packaging, tariff planning, and logistics, giving your brand a true A–Z solution without handoffs.
