OFFSHORE MANUFACTURING – NEW ZEALAND
Ethical clothing manufacturing, made to order.
When a stock garment isn’t right, we make it for you: your fabric, colour, fit, trims and labels, with certified factory partners, decorated before it ships to New Zealand.
Offshore manufacturing for New Zealand brands
OCC Apparel manages ethical clothing manufacturing for New Zealand brands and organisations that need more than a stock garment. Each factory partner is chosen for its commitment to quality, sustainability and ethical practice, and one team manages your order from brief to delivery.
Our partners include the vertically integrated Earth Positive factory in Tamil Nadu, India, where garments are made from organic Indian cotton and produced under the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). Certifications are confirmed and shown per garment and fabric, never as a blanket claim.
How it works
- Brief: style, fabric, colours, sizing, trims, labels and quantities
- Costing: a quote per style, with minimums and timeline
- Sampling: a pre-production sample for you to approve
- Bulk production with our certified factory partners
- Decoration and delivery: printed or embroidered, checked and shipped to you in New Zealand

Start local, then scale
Need stock sooner? Launch a style on quality blanks with local decoration and relabelling, then move it offshore once it’s proven. Allow around 3–6 months from brief to delivery for made-to-order garments, including sampling and transit. Contact OCC Apparel to discuss minimums.
