ShirtbyHand was founded in 2006 in The Netherlands. The first 2 years we worked together with a supplier in Thailand. After a period of steady growth we decided that it would be best practice to open our own factory. Along with a local business partner (joint venture) we opened our own ShirtbyHand factory in Vietnam in 2009. Controlling our own production line has allowed us to expand the company outside of the Netherlands. For the international expansion we use a license agremeent.
The license agreement:
A ShirtbyHand licensee is entitled to make full use of the factory where the tailor-made shirts are made individually. These are completely ‘customer-ready’. The Licensee makes full use of the software package provided by ShirtbyHand which contains the website and database. This way customers can easily design and order there shirts on the website of the specific country. The license agreement allows the licensee to be up and running in short period of time.
The advantages of ShirtbyHand:
