You know what they say: April showers bring…streamlined vertical integration!
Let’s be honest, in an industry where ‘supply chain’ often feels like a polite term for ‘existential crisis,’ Found Surface emerges as a long-overdue breath of fresh, vertically integrated air. The foundation of this company was laid with the enduring lessons of craftsmanship, instilled by my grandmother’s patient hand, and a conviction that strong, USA-based manufacturing is not just viable, but vital. From those early garments we made to the building of Found Surface, I’ve held a deep, personal understanding of apparel creation. Found Surface is not just a manufacturer; we’re your end-to-end partner, seamlessly integrating into your team to provide a comprehensive suite of services. Our mission is to remove the dissonance between product and process, ensuring every step aligns with your brand’s vision.
Unparalleled control and transparency across the entire production lifecycle define our identity. In an industry where over 60% of apparel brands cite supply chain inefficiencies as a major obstacle to growth, our integrated approach provides a critical advantage. This allows us to offer a spectrum of customization, extending to the very foundation of your garments. Should your vision require it, we possess the unique capability to craft custom yarns and textiles, affording you unmatched possibilities. This depth of engagement, coupled with our specialty in digital knitting and innovative cut and sew methods, moves beyond standard offerings, ensuring your ideas are realized with precision and efficiency. We provide a collaborative, real-time experience, a departure from typical client-vendor relationships, fostering true partnership.
Our commitment to sustainability, exemplified by our prioritization of premium natural fibers and pioneering waste-minimizing practices, sets us apart from conventional manufacturers, ensuring our creations are as responsible as they are exquisite. With rising consumer demand for sustainable practices, and over 70% of consumers expressing a preference for eco-friendly brands, our approach is not just a differentiator; it’s a necessity. We are committed to achieving your desired outcomes, a level of dedication seldom seen in the industry. Whether you require new style development, intricate custom swatch research, or flexible, agile production volumes, our integrated approach enables us to deliver tailored solutions that transcend standard industry practices and address your unique needs, with meticulous production management ensuring seamless execution.
Found Surface is engineering the future of apparel creation, setting a new precedent for quality, innovation, and partnership. We are committed to designing, developing, sampling, and producing the highest quality, most sustainable apparel in the world, precisely tailored to each brand’s individual needs—a commitment to excellence that redefines industry benchmarks. Our country has long sought a partner capable of expanding local production while innovating the process on a global scale, and I am proud to say, we are here.
Happy Designing,
Aidan Meany
