Bridge and Stitch provided me with the knowledge and support to get my business off the ground. I didn’t have experience in this industry but wanted to pursue something I’d always had interest in. I didn’t know where to start. Rachael and Victoria provided me with a professional service which allowed me to create my children’s clothing.
Rachael is extremely knowledgeable, time served professional in the textile industry. Having worked in textile print industry for many years, we’re impressed with her garment construction knowledge, project management, commercial awareness and punctual, detailed admin. A rated, invaluable partner. As an individual and company of 30 years , no hesitation recommending.
Bridge & Stitch’s input was brilliant. It’s the knowledge and direction that we were missing prior to working with Bridge & Stitch. We had no sense of direction and didn’t know where to start. They have helped massively with that.
Finding a UK manufacturer was a challenge, the end-to-end service with expertise from fabric to factory was appealing and made the journey stress free. Founder Rachael filled me with confidence, no beating around the bush, she offered a personalised service. Straightforward, she walked me through the process and held my hand.
Bridge and Stitch has a huge network of UK fabric suppliers and factories. I was impressed with how they could locate the right factories for my premium sportswear brand. We use the same factory Velobici use, for quality, long-lasting products. Rachael produced tech packs and contributed with marketing ideas.
Issues creating a technical babywear brand were around factory sourcing, and tech packs you take to factories for sampling/production. When we approached Bridge and Stitch, we needed expertise on design, sampling, production, quality checking and fabric. They were thorough, organised and great communicators.
Bridge & Stitch helped with design, dimensions, sourcing fabrics, and finding a factory for manufacturing. Our reusable sanitary towels brand has grown global and is ticking along nicely. Rachael listened, was curious and asked the right questions. Putting it together, she gave me exactly what I asked for and was easy to work with.
Coming into manufacturing from a different background meant I needed an insider to guide me. I found Rachael a great help, from making fabric choices, to designing garments and coordinating factories and suppliers. It would’ve been hard without her. I’ve been using Bridge and Stitch a long time and continue to!
Rachael and team were invaluable every stage of the process to produce crew activewear for the luxury yacht . From their extensive contacts to the fast transparent communication and level of professionalism and heart she puts in. Check us out on Insta @crewandtailor
I received a great service from the knowledgeable staff at Bridge & Stitch. Rachael and her team really helped me to bring my vision to life! l will definitely recommend their services to anyone I meet thinking of launching their own clothing collection in the UK! Great job thanks.
Bridge & Stitch have been a great help when it came to creating our first line of clothing. We have returned to them since and have used their excellent services multiple times.
Rachael and Jayne’s knowledge and professionalism meant the end product speaks for itself. I had a vision but no idea how to get there, and they guided me through the journey. There’s no way I would have had such a quality collection without their help, highly recommend.
Rachael found out all she could about my eco robe business and advised the way forward. They created tech packs for our eco robe variants and found me a manufacturer. The team is thorough, patient, explain processes and produce professional garments. I would recommend Bridge & Stitch no hesitation.
The service provided went above and beyond anything I was expecting. The team was very accommodating to me as a newbie and helped so much. I am so happy and grateful I picked you.
I didn’t know enough about the technical process that lies behind the production of clothes, so Bridge & Stitch became my saving grace. They offer different services when it comes to giving life to clothes designed. On time, and solid work can be expected when engaging! I strongly recommend their services.
I can’t fault the team, they are all lovely and so helpful. The tech pack produced was of a brilliant standard and perfectly detailed, so thank you to everyone I worked with.
We’re Boyz N God, a French Menswear brand, working with Bridge & Stitch since our first collection. Bridge & Stitch really took the time to understand our project, vision and how to get there.
Product development, manufacture liaison & cost analysis is often a daunting and painstaking process. We found Bridge & Stitch to be the perfect solution as they relieved us from this and streamlined our design and production.
