What we do
One team, from trend research to the shipping container
Most garment sourcing agents start at the purchase order. We start earlier, with what to make, and stay until the goods and their launch imagery are ready.
01
Data-driven trend insights
Market, costing and supply research from Bangladesh, turned into a clear view of what to make and when.
See the research02
Design & product development
Tech packs, fabric and trim selection, and design support, so a concept becomes a product a factory can cost and make.
03
Sourcing & merchandising
Matching your product to the right knitwear or woven factory, with transparent pricing and no hidden markup.
04
Sampling & approvals
Proto, fit and pre-production samples developed quickly, so specs are locked before bulk production begins.
05
Production follow-up
Line monitoring and time-and-action tracking that keep your order on schedule from cutting to packing.
06
Quality control
In-line and final AQL inspections at each stage, with a written report before goods leave the floor.
07
Compliance
We prioritise audited, ethical factories and help you verify social and environmental standards before you commit.
08
Shipment & logistics
Export documentation, freight coordination and dispatch by sea or air, with status visible throughout.
09
Commercial product shoots
Campaign and e-commerce photography produced in Dhaka, with photographer, models and styling arranged, so your product launches with its imagery ready.
How we protect your order
Your order moves forward only when you say so
Sourcing from another continent goes wrong when money and production run ahead of approvals. Every order we manage passes three checkpoints, in this sequence.
Checkpoint 01
Sample approval
Nothing goes into bulk until you have approved a physical sample. That approved sample becomes the standard every later check is measured against.
Checkpoint 02
Staged payments
You pay in stages tied to production milestones, agreed in writing before work starts. You are never asked to pay the full amount up front.
Checkpoint 03
QC sign-off before shipment
Every order is inspected against the approved sample and spec before it leaves the factory, and you receive the report. It ships once it is signed off.
Minimum order quantity
1,000 units to 100,000+. Scale with us.
Start with a run sized for where your brand is today. As you grow, the same team and the same factory network take you to six-figure volumes, so you never have to re-source to keep up with demand.
Evidence
Claims you can check
A fashion house is only as credible as the factories behind it. These are the standards those factories hold and the buyers they already produce for.
Standards held in our factory network
GRSGlobal Recycled StandardVerified recycled content, with chain of custody from fibre to finished garment.
RCSRecycled Claim StandardTracks recycled material through each stage of production.
HiggHigg IndexMeasured environmental and social performance at facility level.
ACCORD / RSCAccord and RMG Sustainability CouncilIndependent building, fire and electrical safety inspections.
BSCIamfori BSCISocial compliance audit covering wages, hours and working conditions.
Brands our partner factories already make for
BestsellerInditex
Our sweater partner factory is an approved supplier to both groups, two of the largest in European fashion. Their supplier audits are among the strictest in the industry.
Certificates and buyer approvals belong to the individual factories, not to ansco., and which ones apply depends on the factory matched to your order. Before you commit, we send you the current certificates for that factory.

Product coverage
Knitwear is our core strength: T-shirts, polo shirts, tank tops and jackets, backed by an anchor factory with capacity of 700,000+ dozen a year. We are expanding into wovens (shirts, trousers) through new factory partnerships, with private label orders from 1,000 units for growing and D2C brands.
The team
The people you will work with
Three founders, based in Dhaka. Whoever you speak to first, all three know your order.
Numayr Habib
Co-founder · Operations & delivery
Runs operations: costing, order tracking, quality checkpoints and delivery. Numayr comes from a design background and built the process every order follows.
Shayaan Husain
Co-founder · Business development & sourcing
Leads buyer relationships and factory sourcing. Shayaan spent a decade in the United States before returning to Dhaka, and is usually the first person you will speak to.
What does a fashion house in Bangladesh do?
A fashion house is your sourcing office in Bangladesh. We find and vet the factory, negotiate price, manage sampling and production, inspect quality and arrange shipment. You deal with one accountable team instead of managing a factory from another time zone.
How is ansco. different from other garment sourcing agents in Bangladesh?
Most garment sourcing agents begin at the purchase order. We also cover the steps before and after it: trend research, design and product development, and commercial product shoots. We work directly with factory owners, and our pricing is transparent.
What is your minimum order quantity?
Orders start at 1,000 units. That makes us a low-MOQ route into garment manufacturing in Bangladesh for growing and D2C brands, and the same factory network scales past 100,000 units as you grow.
Do you offer private label apparel manufacturing?
Yes. Garments are made to your design and specification by our partner factories in Bangladesh and finished under your brand, with your labels, tags and packaging. If you do not have a tech pack yet, we can build one with you.
How are payments and quality handled?
Bulk production starts only after you approve a physical sample. Payment is staged against milestones agreed in writing, and every order is inspected and signed off before it ships.
Which products do you source?
Knitwear is our core: T-shirts, polo shirts, tank tops and jackets. We are expanding into wovens such as shirts and trousers through new factory partnerships.
