Managed production, not just introductions
UK-led design, development, factory selection, costing, sampling and bulk follow-up across your full range — baselayers and knits through hi-vis, safetywear and outerwear.
Design & Product Development
Workwear design, tech packs, construction detailing, fabric selection, fit and sampling — from concept or brief to approved bulk-ready sample.
Factory Route Selection
Category-led matching to Bangladesh factories with proven capability in hi-vis, cargos, knits, padded jackets and taped-seam outerwear.
Costing & Commercial Control
Transparent view of fabric, construction, compliance and MOQ drivers before you commit. MOQs depend on product; bulk typically starts around 2,000 pieces per style, with smaller runs possible in broader programmes.
Production Management
Supplier coordination, timelines, quality checkpoints and documentation through bulk — aligned to your target market requirements.

Managed production
What you can expect
Operational outcomes from a UK-led Bangladesh production route — not introductions.
MOQ and compliance clarity
Feasibility on MOQs, standards and sampling timelines assessed before you commit to production.
Production visibility
Clear factory route and stage-by-stage communication from tech pack review through bulk approval.
Multi-category routing
Hi-vis, cargos and related categories under one managed Bangladesh programme — not multiple disconnected suppliers.
Why Bangladesh for workwear?
Bangladesh offers deep garment infrastructure across knits, woven bottoms and technical outerwear — when each product is matched to the right factory route.
Knit & baselayer capacity
Established routes for polos, sweats, fleeces, softshells and moisture-wicking baselayers — MOQs assessed per product, typically from around 2,000 pieces per style and colourway.
Technical cargo expertise
4-way stretch fabrics, multi-pocket construction and reinforced stress points for utility workwear trousers.
Outerwear capability
Growing capacity for padded jackets, shell garments and taped-seam production with proper factory selection.
Hi-vis at scale
Fluorescent fabrics, retroreflective tape application and colour consistency for EN, ANSI and AS/NZS programmes.
We match product to factory — not every style suits every route. That's where specialist management matters.
Brief to bulk
We manage design, development and production for B2B export programmes — not just the factory introduction.
Compliance
Standards & compliance
We plan production around the certifications and market standards your programme requires — from hi-vis classes to recycled content documentation.

Frequently asked questions
What types of companies do you work with?
We work with workwear brands, safetywear and PPE distributors, outdoor apparel brands, uniform suppliers and private label buyers — primarily those developing or scaling export programmes. Our sweet spot is B2B brands running multi-category ranges across hi-vis, knits, cargos and outerwear.
What markets do you support?
We support programmes selling into the UK, EU, United States and Australia. Each market has distinct compliance requirements — EN ISO 20471 for European hi-vis, ANSI/ISEA 107 for the US, and AS/NZS 4602 for Australia. We factor these into fabric, tape and documentation planning from the development stage.
Do you own factories?
No. Source Workwear works through vetted Bangladesh production partners and manages development, costing, compliance and bulk production around each project. You get managed routes and UK-led oversight — not a factory directory.
Do you only work in Bangladesh?
Bangladesh is our core focus and where we have the deepest factory relationships across workwear categories. We assess each product on technical and commercial suitability — and will advise honestly if a style is better suited to a different production geography.
What is your typical MOQ for Bangladesh production?
MOQs depend on the product — category, construction, fabric and factory route all influence what is commercially viable. As a guide, bulk production typically starts around 2,000 pieces per style. Smaller production runs can sometimes be structured within broader multi-style programmes when overall volume and phasing work for the factory route. MOQs are quoted per style — not as a single blended figure across a mixed range. We assess feasibility honestly at brief stage — share your programme scope and we'll advise on realistic quantities.
