01/ initial consultation
Got a head full of ideas but no clue where to start?
Book an hour with Fazane for expert guidance on bringing your brand to life. She’ll help you refine your concept, map out the next steps, and set you up for success—plus, it means we can give you a more accurate project quote.
If you’ve already got a fully developed brand, concept and designs, great—we offer a complimentary one-hour consultation. But if you need that extra strategic direction, a brand consultation is £200 + VAT (and well worth it!).

02/ Critical Path Planning & Project Timelines
Think of this as your brand’s production sat nav — we’ll map out every step from first sketch to final delivery, so you always know what’s happening, when, and why. No more last-minute panics or missed sample deadlines. We’ll build you a custom timeline (with buffers for those inevitable bumps), so you can stay on track and in control at every stage.
03/ Costing Templates & Margin Calculators
Pricing is where so many new brands fall down — either undercharging or overcomplicating. We’ll set you up with foolproof costing templates and margin tools, so you can confidently price your products for profit (and still pay yourself). We’ll walk you through cost breakdowns, markups, and retail strategy — all tailored to your product, audience, and ambition.
04/ Sourcing Support
Whether you’re chasing the perfect organic cotton or want to work with an artisan weaving co-op in Gujarat, we’ll help you figure out the who, where, and how. Expect honest advice on MOQ nightmares, quality pitfalls, and supplier red flags — plus tips on finding the right fabric, trim, or production partner to bring your vision to life (without selling your soul).
05/ Compliance & Sustainability Set-Up
Care labels, fibre content, REACH regs, modern slavery statements — it’s a lot. We’ll demystify the compliance side of things and help you put sustainable and legal practices in place that align with UK/EU standards (and your values). Think of this as your ethical armour: protecting you, your makers, and your customers from day one.
05/ Supplier Contracts & Agreements
Verbal promises don’t cut it when things go wrong. We’ll provide you with ready-to-use contract templates and show you how to implement them properly — including key clauses around deposits, IP protection, delivery delays, and dispute resolution. Because when everyone’s clear on the rules, everything runs smoother.
07/ Quality Control Processes
We’ll help you create a QC system that doesn’t just tick boxes — it actually works. From pre-production checks to final inspections, you’ll have the right tools to catch issues early and set clear expectations with your suppliers (especially important for handmade or artisan products, where small variations are part of the charm — but poor stitching isn’t).
08/ Shipping, Delivery & Incoterms
FOB, DDP, CIF, WTF? International shipping can feel like a foreign language. We’ll help you navigate freight, customs, taxes, and Incoterms so your products don’t get stuck in a port (or cost more to ship than to make). Whether you're importing from off-shore or delivering within the UK, we’ll make sure your logistics run like clockwork.
