Understanding OEM and ODM in Activewear Manufacturing
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturing)
OEM involves producing garments based on the client's exact specifications. The client provides designs, patterns, and fabric choices, and the manufacturer executes production. This option is ideal for brands with established designs who want to control every detail.
ODM (Original Design Manufacturing)
ODM allows manufacturers to offer pre-designed styles that clients can customize. This is perfect for startups or brands looking to expand quickly without investing heavily in design. luckyyoga offers an extensive ODM catalog with options to modify colors, fabrics, and branding.
