Our Vision
The company vision was to create an interactive resource for design, merchandising and supply-chain planning and execution between clients and overseas offices and factories. Pacific Wave provides low cost sourcing in apparel, accessories, home textiles, and other goods for companies in the fashion and home furnishing industries.
Our design and merchandising team in the United States are adept at the many steps from the initial product development process through to final approval samples. Our sourcing experts are constantly evaluating and inspecting factories and production on the Sub-continent, the Middle East and the Far East to provide clients with the best price/value/response-time combinations to meet their multifaceted production needs. Our supply chain professionals anticipate, prepare and track each bulk shipment to its final destination with transparency and efficiency. We provide full-service assistance as needed in product development, sourcing, compliance, production, inspection, testing, shipping and customs clearance.
Design and Product Development
Even our customers who have their own design teams rely on our expert merchandisers as their eyes in the factories to find the best and newest fabrics and finishes for each incoming season. Alternatively, a client may come to us with a new technique or finish they have found in the marketplace and ask us to duplicate or improve upon the item. With our extensive network of factories we help keep our clients current. Our services include trend and color advice; proto-type development, evaluation and fine-tuning; lab dip approval; fabric testing and final pre-production sample approval.
Sustainable Sourcing, Compliance and Quality Control
Locating the right factory and country, to produce the required product is an important step to maintain the highest quality and best value in the supply chain process. Pacific Wave’s network of over 50 factories is selected based on the best choice to meet customer price/value needs and the flexibility to move countries should tariff volatility dictate. Pacific Wave has developed strong relationships with factory partners over the past 25+ years. We maintain frank and open lines of communication with factories to make the partnership meaningful and valuable to our clients. Our dedicated quality control staff manages the integrity of each product and ensures remedial action is taken to ensure every specification is maintained at all times. Building high standards into each product from start to finish pays dividends of quality into every shipment.
