Our scrubs minimum order quantity is 50 pieces per style, and you can mix sizes from XS to 3XL within those 50. Before bulk production we make a sample in your chosen style and fabric so you can check fit, pockets and branding. This post explains how the minimum is counted, how samples work and what to send so your quotation is accurate first time.
How the minimum is counted
The minimum applies per style. Our scrub styles are the unisex scrub set, the women’s fit scrub set, jogger scrubs and the scrub cap. Each style counts towards its own minimum.
Within a style:
- Sizes can be mixed. A run of 50 can be spread across XS–3XL in any split that suits your buyers.
- Colours can be mixed. You can order more than one colour in a style. The colour split is confirmed in your quotation, as it depends on the fabric and the colours chosen.
- Caps are a separate style. Caps are one adjustable size, so there is no size split, only colour.
If you want matching sets, tops, trousers and caps can be cut from the same fabric and colour. Tell us how many sets and caps you need, and we show the full breakdown in your quotation.
Planning a first order
A first order works well when it is small enough to sell through and large enough to test what your buyers want. Some starting points:
| Your situation | A sensible first order |
|---|---|
| New scrubs brand selling online | One style in two or three colours, sizes weighted to the middle |
| Uniform shop adding scrubs | Unisex sets in your standard colours, sized from your past sales |
| Medical supplier with a named team | Sets sized from the team’s size list, plus a few spares, and matching caps |
| Brand testing a fitted line | Women’s fit or jogger scrubs in one colour, alongside a core unisex style |
Keep the first order focused. You can add styles and colours on the reorder once you know what sells.
A quick way to check your plan: add up the pieces per style and per colour. If one colour in one style only has a handful of pieces spread across seven sizes, you will run out of some sizes almost at once and be left with odd sizes in others. In that case, either move pieces from a trial colour to your core colour or reduce the number of sizes in the trial colour.
How samples work
We make a sample in your chosen style and fabric, with your branding where possible. The sample lets you check:
- fit and measurements against the size chart;
- pocket count, position and depth;
- the waist, whether drawstring or elastic;
- the cuff on jogger scrubs and the adjustment on caps;
- embroidery or heat transfer position and size;
- labels and hang tags.
Once you approve the sample, we start bulk production to the approved sample. Sample terms are confirmed in your quotation. If you want changes, we confirm what can be adjusted and whether a revised sample is needed.
The order process, step by step
- Enquiry: you send the details listed below.
- Quotation: we confirm styles, fabric, colours, quantities, branding, packing, price per piece, lead time and shipping terms.
- Sample: we make the sample and you check it.
- Advance payment: an advance starts production.
- Production: we cut and sew to the approved sample.
- Quality check: every order is checked before packing.
- Dispatch: the balance is paid before dispatch, and the goods ship on the agreed terms.
Lead time is confirmed in the quotation, as it depends on the styles, quantity and branding.
What to send for a scrubs quote
The more complete your enquiry, the more accurate the quotation. Send:
- the styles you want (unisex set, women’s fit set, jogger scrubs, cap);
- the fabric for each style (poly-cotton or poly-viscose stretch);
- colours, with a reference or swatch if you have a specific shade;
- quantity per size and per colour;
- pocket count and waist type;
- branding: neck label type, wash-care content, hang tag, embroidery or heat transfer, with positions;
- your logo artwork;
- packing: bulk cartons, individual polybags or set packing, and any barcode needs;
- the destination country, since labelling requirements vary by country.
If you are not sure about some of these, send what you have. We can quote on options, for example two fabrics or two quantities, so you can compare before deciding. A reference photo of a scrub style you like also helps, even if it is from another brand, as long as you only use it to describe the fit.
We take enquiries from buyers worldwide. Shipping method, terms and documents are confirmed in the quotation.
If price is your first question, our post on what changes the price of a white label scrub set explains which choices move it. You can see the full range on our white label scrubs page. When your list is ready, send it to us and we will come back with a quotation.
