Audit capacity before selecting styles
Capacity is not only a number. Buyers should confirm whether the factory can support sample making, component preparation, plating coordination, inspection and packing within the expected launch window.
A factory with clear capacity data is easier to manage for repeat wholesale orders and seasonal product launches.
- Factory size and production team
- Monthly production capacity
- Sample and bulk lead time
- Category coverage across earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings and sets
Check sample control and specification records
For brass fashion jewelry, the approved sample should become the reference for material, size, plating color, stone setting, logo and packaging. If these details are not recorded, repeat orders can drift over time.
Ask how the factory stores approved samples and how production teams receive final specifications.
- Reference photos or physical sample
- Material, plating and stone requirements
- MOQ by style and color
- Packaging and labeling instructions
Review compliance and packing together
Compliance and packing are often discussed too late. For US and EU buyers, lead free, nickel free, cadmium free, REACH and Prop 65 expectations should be clear before bulk production.
Packing should also protect plated surfaces and make warehouse receiving easier.
Buyer checklist
- Confirm factory team size, monthly capacity and lead time.
- Ask how approved samples and specifications are recorded.
- Check whether the supplier can support your target jewelry categories.
- Discuss compliance before quotation and sampling.
- Confirm packing format, barcode, labels and carton marks.
