To all the ladies in America, yes, I did make your clothing brand that you're wearing right now. I produce for Khloe Kardashian, which is good American.

No many so many. Better. Good news. That coming up. I'm gonna tell you exactly how we make all these beautiful, amazing brands tier here. So we own the the knitting mill, which is we make the fabric, and after the fabric we do the pattern, after the pattern we do cutting and sewing, and then we proceed with the samples. First, we have to do the samples for the brands to approve. They do approve two things, they approve the color, actually more than two things, they approve the color, they approve the fit, and they approve the the print if it's printed garment. And then after that, let's see if they say, okay, everything looks perfect, we move over the production, and we do the same process and just on a bigger scale. If they don't prove it, they said okay maybe I like the print better want you to tweak the fit or maybe I don't like the weight of the fabric and all that kind of thing. So that's the that's the the short way of explaining things, and then, I will drop more videos if you guys interested, and I'll tell you exactly the details on how we make it step by step. Alright? Stay tuned.
