Retailers and brand programmes we supply
Who we work with
Four kinds of partnership
Each one runs differently on minimums, on lead time, on how much design work sits with us rather than with you.
Brands & labels
Private label and licensed collections produced under your identity, with design support scaled to how much you want to own in-house.
Importers & wholesalers
Consolidated multi-category orders with competitive FOB pricing, flexible shipping terms and documentation prepared for your broker.
Start-up labels
Accessible minimums, hands-on development and a route from first sketch to first delivery without needing an in-house technical team.
Why partner with EETHEN
What you get that a broker cannot give you

- One team across every category — workwear, outerwear, outdoor, denim, sweaters and jersey through a single merchandiser
- Named factory disclosure — you always know which facility holds your order
- Compliance before booking — audits are a precondition, not a document collected later
- Written weekly reporting — production status against critical path, in writing, every week
- Consolidated shipping — multiple categories and factories combined into one shipment where it reduces your freight cost
- Escalation that works — a named senior sponsor on every account, reachable when it matters
