Manufacturing Credit Program
ZESTLET MANUFACTURING CREDIT PROGRAM
Build your collection.
Keep your cash flow moving.
Launch with a budget-based production plan, or apply for manufacturing credit on orders from USD 10,000. Approved businesses pay 40% upfront and the remaining 60% after delivery over 3, 6 or 12 months.
No personal credit score required. No interest or financing markup on the agreed product value. Every credit limit and repayment plan is subject to business verification, team approval and a signed agreement.

TWO WAYS TO MOVE FORWARD
A starting point for your budget.
A credit plan for your business.
Tell us what you can invest.
Have $1,000, $5,000 or another budget? Share it with the team. We will recommend a feasible product, quantity and development scope.
- Custom MOQ proposal based on fabric, style and decoration
- Free approved sampling, design, pattern and prototype support
- Free branding setup within the agreed scope
- Product manufacturing priced clearly in your quotation
This route does not automatically include credit. Quantities and production feasibility depend on your specification; a budget is not a guaranteed product package.
Order from $10,000. Start with $4,000.
For registered businesses approved by our team, spread the remaining product balance into monthly installments after delivery.
- 40% upfront on the approved product order
- 60% repaid on a signed 3-, 6- or 12-month schedule
- No added interest, markup or financing percentage
- Repeat-order capacity reviewed as your account develops
We review requests from $10,000 to large-scale programs, including $10M+. Program scale is not an automatic individual entitlement. Approval and available capacity vary.
DEVELOP THE PRODUCT FIRST
Free development.
A clear production price.
The approved startup scope includes sampling, design support, pattern making, prototyping and branding setup without a separate development fee. You pay for the agreed product production.
We define the samples, revision scope, fabrics, labels and packaging before work starts. Sample courier costs, bulk materials and physical components are itemized where applicable, so “free development” stays clear.
Approve the sample and specifications before bulk production. Development support is tied to your agreed project, rather than unlimited unrelated sampling.

FROM IDEA TO AGREED INSTALLMENTS
How the program works
Share your plan
Tell us your product, budget, market, expected quantity and target launch date. Choose startup production or a credit review.
Confirm feasibility
We propose the MOQ, product price, sample scope and lead time. Registered businesses provide company and business tax details for verification.
Get a team decision
Our team assesses the request and confirms the approved order value, deferred exposure and repayment term in writing. An estimate is not approval.
Approve, sign and deposit
Approve the sample, sign the invoice-linked manufacturing and repayment agreement, and pay the 40% product deposit before bulk production.
Produce and deliver
We manufacture, inspect and dispatch to the written specification and delivery terms. Shipping, duties and taxes are confirmed in the quotation.
Repay and plan ahead
Pay the 60% balance on the monthly schedule after delivery. Discuss replenishment and future credit reviews as your account progresses.
A SIMPLE USD EXAMPLE
A $10,000 order.
A $4,000 upfront payment.
For an approved $10,000 product order, the remaining balance is $6,000. Choose from the plans offered in your approval:
| Approved term | Upfront payment | Monthly balance payment | Total product value |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 months after delivery | $4,000 | 3 × $2,000 | $10,000 |
| 6 months after delivery | $4,000 | 6 × $1,000 | $10,000 |
| 12 months after delivery | $4,000 | 12 × $500 | $10,000 |
No added financing markup, interest or extra percentage—even on an approved 12-month plan.
Illustration only, in USD. Your agreement sets the approved term, delivery milestone and exact due dates. Freight, duties, taxes, sample shipping and actual third-party payment charges are separate if not expressly included.
BUSINESS VERIFICATION, NOT PERSONAL CREDIT SCORING
Who can apply?
New and established registered apparel businesses, private label brands, streetwear and tactical labels, outdoor brands, marketplace sellers, wholesalers, distributors and corporate merchandise buyers can request a review. Selling on Shopify, Amazon or TikTok Shop does not by itself establish eligibility.
For manufacturing credit
- Registered company: LLC, Ltd or a recognized local equivalent
- Valid company registration and applicable business tax identifier
- Verified communication email and phone number
- Authorized company representative signing the agreement
- Clear product requirement and feasible order from USD 10,000
- Ability to pay 40% upfront and meet the agreed installments
Examples of business identifiers include a U.S. EIN, Canadian BN, or European VAT/local tax ID, as applicable. These identifiers verify the entity; they are not collateral or a repayment guarantee.
When credit cannot proceed
- No registered company or unverifiable business details
- Email or phone verification cannot be completed
- No authorized signatory or unwillingness to sign
- The required deposit is unavailable
- Unclear, unfeasible or unauthorized product requests
- Overdue ZESTLET invoices or unresolved account issues
If you are not registered yet or need a smaller run, ask about startup production. A credit decline does not prevent discussion of an appropriate non-credit quotation.
No personal credit score is required. The core review uses company identity, business tax identification, verified contacts and the order plan you share. Any clarification needed to resolve a mismatch is explained by the team.
REPAY. REVIEW. REPLENISH.
A long-term supply relationship.
Share stock levels, sales forecasts and reorder points so we can plan the next manufacturing run before your existing inventory gets low.
As installments are paid, the outstanding balance falls. That can free capacity under an existing approval. A higher credit ceiling is a separate team decision based on payment performance, the next order and available capacity.
For example, a $10,000 product order creates a $6,000 deferred balance after the deposit. Paying three $500 installments reduces that balance to $4,500. It does not automatically turn a $10,000 order approval into a $20,000 limit.
Repeat orders, limit increases and continuing terms require review. Restocking support reduces planning friction; it cannot guarantee uninterrupted stock or lifetime credit.

CLEAR BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Program terms & conditions
These are the program’s public terms. Your signed manufacturing agreement, invoice register and repayment schedule record the order-specific commitments. Submission of an enquiry is not acceptance of a credit contract.
1. Program scope and approval
The Manufacturing Credit Program is a business-to-business supplier credit arrangement for eligible ZESTLET product orders, not a cash loan. Applications are reviewed individually. Enquiries, website examples and preliminary estimates are not approvals. Large-scale requests, including $10M+ programs, require separate capacity and eligibility assessment. No approval percentage or guaranteed limit is promised.
2. Two routes, different requirements
The startup package is a budget-based production quotation and does not itself include deferred payment. Manufacturing credit starts at USD 10,000 in approved product order value. Registration is mandatory for credit; founders who are not yet registered can discuss the startup route. Product-specific MOQs, fabric minimums and feasibility apply.
3. Business and contact verification
Before credit approval, provide the contracting company’s legal name, entity type, business registration and applicable business tax identifier. The email address and phone number used for communication must be verified by the team. The signatory must be authorized to bind the company. Company and tax numbers identify a business; they do not guarantee payment. No personal credit score is required.
4. Deposit and production approval
For approved credit orders, 40% of the agreed product order value is payable before bulk production begins. The sample, specifications, quotation and repayment agreement must also be approved. For a $10,000 product order the deposit is $4,000 and the deferred balance is $6,000. Shipping and other quoted charges follow the payment terms stated on the invoice.
5. Delivery and installment dates
The remaining 60% is payable in monthly installments over the approved 3-, 6- or 12-month term after delivery. The signed schedule defines the delivery milestone, evidence of receipt, first due date, subsequent due dates, currency and payment method. Do not assume a due date from a website example; the invoice-linked schedule is controlling.
6. No financing markup
The agreed product value stays the same throughout the approved repayment period. ZESTLET adds no interest, financing markup or extra percentage for choosing installments, including 12 months. Freight, sample shipping, duties, taxes and actual third-party transfer or currency conversion charges must be separately identified where applicable.
7. Signed agreement and invoice register
The authorized company representative signs the manufacturing and repayment agreement before production. Add the company stamp where used. Every covered invoice number is listed in the agreement or a signed invoice schedule/addendum, with total value, deposit, outstanding balance and payment dates. New invoices are not automatically covered by an earlier approval.
8. Samples and included development
Sampling, design support, pattern making, prototyping and branding setup are free within the written approved startup development scope. The quotation records the sample types, materials, revision scope and approval process. This is not unlimited unrelated sample development. Sample courier charges and physical components used in bulk production are identified in the quotation.
9. Product price, specification and changes
Confirm fabrics, measurements, colors, decoration, quantities, labels, packaging and acceptance criteria in writing. Bulk production starts after sample/specification approval. Changes require a written change order and may change the manufacturing price or lead time; an approved installment term alone does not increase the product price.
10. Credit use, repayments and review
The approval states both the permitted order value and the maximum unpaid balance. Outstanding and committed orders reduce available capacity. Repayment reduces the outstanding balance; a higher ceiling requires a separate review. On-time payments and repeat demand may support a limit increase, but neither an increase nor automatic renewal is guaranteed.
11. Restocking and continuing relationship
Share stock levels, sales forecasts, reorder points and required delivery dates so the team can plan replenishment. New production needs available capacity and written approval. Manufacturing lead times, material supply, demand changes and transit can affect stock availability. Long-term support is reviewed throughout the relationship and is not an irrevocable lifetime commitment.
12. Overdue accounts
The company must pay each invoice installment when due and contact the team promptly if a problem arises. Overdue payments may pause new credit orders, reduce future availability or require cleared payment before further production. No new financing surcharge is created by this page. Any dispute, collection remedy or revised schedule is governed by the signed agreement and applicable law.
13. Quality, delivery and disputes
The signed order sets inspection, acceptance, defect reporting, remedies and the delivery milestone. Report discrepancies promptly with the relevant invoice and evidence. A quality claim does not silently rewrite the repayment calendar; any agreed hold, remedy or schedule change must be recorded in writing, without limiting applicable legal rights.
14. Shipping, tax and ownership
The quotation states freight responsibilities, delivery terms, duties, customs clearance, taxes, risk transfer and whether any charges are included. Title or retention-of-title provisions apply only if validly agreed and enforceable under the relevant law; this page does not automatically create security over goods.
15. Cancellation and refunds
Cancellation, sample approval, work already performed, committed materials and any resulting refund are handled under the signed order terms and applicable law. No universal deposit-refund promise is made on this page. Agree the cancellation process before paying.
16. Information and program changes
Provide accurate information and notify ZESTLET of material company or contact changes. Business enquiry data is handled under the Privacy Policy for review and communication. Future program terms may change; existing signed orders are not unilaterally repriced or rescheduled by a website update. Governing law and dispute procedures are specified in the signed agreement.
YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
Manufacturing credit FAQ
What is the minimum credit order?
Manufacturing credit starts with an approved product order value of USD 10,000. The 40% deposit is USD 4,000 on that order. Smaller budgets can request the separate startup production package.
Is my approved limit a cash loan?
No. This is supplier payment flexibility for eligible ZESTLET manufacturing orders. No cash is paid out to you. Your approval states the permitted order value, deferred balance and available capacity.
Can a new brand apply?
Yes. A new brand can request startup production. To receive deferred-payment credit, the contracting company must be registered, its business identifiers and contacts verified, and the 40% deposit and signed agreement completed.
Do you require a personal credit score?
No personal credit score is required for this program. Our team reviews company registration, business tax identification, verified contacts, order requirements and capacity to meet the agreed payments.
Are 3, 6 and 12 months available to everyone?
These are the available plan options, subject to individual approval. The signed schedule confirms the approved term, installment amounts and exact due dates after delivery.
Do installments change the product price?
No. ZESTLET adds no interest, financing markup or extra percentage to the agreed product value for an approved installment plan, including a 12-month plan. Separately quoted shipping, duties, taxes and third-party transfer charges are not financing markup.
What is free in the startup package?
The approved development scope includes sampling, design support, pattern making, prototyping and branding setup without a separate development fee. The quotation specifies the products, sample scope and revisions. Sample shipping, bulk materials and physical labels or packaging are itemized as applicable.
What identifiers do I need?
Your registered company name, entity type, business registration identifier and applicable business tax ID, such as an EIN, Canadian BN or European VAT/local tax number. An LLC is one accepted entity type, not the only one. Do not send personal Social Security numbers or bank credentials.
Is a tax ID a repayment guarantee?
No. Business identifiers help verify the legal entity. Repayment is an obligation of the contracting company under its signed agreement. This page does not create a personal guarantee.
Will my limit increase after three installments?
On-time payments can support a review, but there is no automatic increase or fixed multiplier. Releasing existing capacity is different from increasing the approved limit. Every new order remains subject to written confirmation.
Can you prevent my business from going out of stock?
We can coordinate reorder quantities, lead times, shipment dates and available credit with you. Restocking depends on your demand forecasts, production capacity, account status and shipping. Continuous availability is not guaranteed.
Can I apply with a $1,000 or $5,000 budget?
Yes, for a tailored startup production proposal. These budgets do not automatically qualify for credit or guarantee a particular quantity. We recommend a feasible MOQ and product scope after reviewing your requirements.
