MOQ: 150 units per style · small runs from 100

Uniforms that survive the wash, the shift and the reorder.

Tulum Fashions manufactures corporate and hospitality uniforms in Medellín, Colombia. Hotel and restaurant front of house, housekeeping, kitchen, corporate shirting, polos and industrial coveralls, cut and sewn to your specification.

A uniform programme lives or dies on the second order, not the first. Sizes have to repeat, color has to match the batch from last year, and the delivery date has to hold. That is the part we are built for.

150

Units per style

Up to 3 colors inside that minimum, sizes mix freely. From 100 to 149 is a small run; below 100, development and samples only.

6–8

Weeks of production

From approved sample and received deposit. Development and sampling take about 4 weeks.

3

Colors per minimum

Sizes mix freely inside the 150 units. Colors do not: more colorways means more units, which matters when a programme spans departments.

Development Kit

Development is paid work, quoted per style and charged before it starts. This is published policy, not a case by case negotiation.

With your tech pack

  1. What it covers

    Fabric and trim sourcing, patterns, tech pack, artwork, one physical sample.

    3 rounds included in the fee.

  3. Swatches

    Included. Courier is US$35.

  4. Below 150 units

    From 100 to 149 units we run a small batch (up to 2 colors, at a +35% short-run surcharge on list price). Below 100 units there is no production run: we can do the development and the physical sample, which are yours to keep.

Development fee

One fee, paid once.

The development fee is paid once, and we credit 50% of the development and sample fees of a style against its first production order (150 units or more, deposit paid within 90 days of sample approval), applied to the final balance.

Who this is for

A good fit

  • You run a hotel, restaurant group, clinic or industrial operation and reorder every season
  • You need sizes and color to repeat across batches
  • You can commit to 150 units per style
  • You want one supplier accountable for the whole programme

Not yet

  • You need certified flame resistant or high visibility PPE
  • You need fewer than 100 units
  • You are asking for a quote without a specification
  • You expect development work at no cost

Questions buyers ask first

What is the minimum order for uniforms?

150 units per style, split across up to 3 colors. Sizes mix freely. From 100 to 149 units we run a small batch (up to 2 colors, at a +35% short-run surcharge on list price). Below 100 there is no production run; we can still do the development and the physical sample, which are yours to keep.

Do you manufacture certified PPE?

No, and we say so before anyone asks. We do not produce certified flame resistant garments to NFPA 2112, nor certified high visibility workwear. What we produce is corporate and industrial clothing: coveralls, work shirts, trousers, polos and hospitality uniforms. If your requirement is certified protective equipment, we are not the right supplier and we will tell you at the first email.

What uniform programmes do you produce?

Hotel and restaurant front of house, housekeeping, kitchen, corporate shirting, polos, industrial coveralls and work trousers. Embroidery and printed branding are handled as part of the programme.

Can you match the uniforms we already have?

Yes. Send the current garment and we quote development against it. Fabric is matched by construction, weight and fiber content, and we send swatches before production so color can be signed off against the batch you already have in service.

How long does production take?

6 to 8 weeks from approved sample and received deposit. Development and sampling take about 4 weeks. Air freight from Medellín to the United States adds 3 to 5 days.

How do reorders work?

The pattern, the specification and the fabric reference stay on file, so a repeat programme skips development entirely. That is the point of the first order: the second one is faster and cheaper because the groundwork is already paid for.

Is Colombian apparel duty free into the United States?

No. That claim is common in the industry and it is wrong. As of August 2026 Colombian apparel enters the United States at 12.5% with a valid certificate of origin. The advantage is real but it is a comparison, not an exemption: effective duties on Chinese apparel run 36 to 52%.

Do you work with new clients on a first programme?

Yes, provided you can commit to 150 units per style and pay for development. Development is paid work: US$829.01 per style from scratch (US$466.32 development + US$362.69 sample), US$569.94 if you bring your own specification. We do not absorb development cost in exchange for a future order.
