Whispering Smith, Britain’s biggest fast-fashion wholesale importer and supplier, recently reported a sharp rise in its made-to-order (MTO) service, designed to help ambitious young fashion designers and start-up brands get off the ground. Demand for its unique in-house MTO design, production and distribution services rose by over 1,600 per cent in the past 12 months.

The Manchester based group, which supplies to high street and e-commerce brands, including ASOS, New Look, Zalando and Footasylum, said in the past six months alone, it has worked with over 1,100 start-up brands, as well as established labels looking to adapt to the new post-COVID retail landscape and Brexit, it said in a press release.

The company also offers thousands of on-trend, affordable white label designs, which can be rebranded with its customers’ own labels.

MTO provides a 360-degree service to fashion labels of all sizes, capable of overseeing every aspect of the brand journey—from design, branding and merchandising, sourcing, manufacturing, importing, distribution and sales.
