Founded in 1997 by Annie Yao, Young Source has grown from a small local lingerie workshop into a trusted manufacturing partner for international lingerie and intimate apparel brands. Based in Shenzhen, China, we have spent more than 25 years refining our craft and building long term partnerships throughout the Guangdong manufacturing region, one of the most advanced textile and garment hubs in the world.
Over the past two decades, we have produced and exported more than 50 million undergarments, supporting brands across Western Europe, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada. Our expertise covers the entire production chain including pattern making, grading, cutting, sewing, embroidery, finishing, and packaging.
A Production Model Designed for Quality and Flexibility
In our early years, Young Source owned and operated its own factories. As our client base expanded, we learned that we could offer higher quality and greater flexibility by changing our approach. Instead of working as a traditional factory, we developed a model that focuses entirely on the needs of the client.
We now collaborate with a network of carefully selected factory partners, many of whom we have worked with for more than 15 years. This allows us to match each project with the most suitable production capabilities while maintaining full oversight of quality and timelines.
To ensure consistency, our own quality control and production staff are stationed inside the factories. They monitor sampling, materials, in line inspections, and final quality control on a daily basis. This model combines the advantages of multiple factories with the reliability of an internal production team. It is one of the reasons so many international brands continue to work with us year after year.
Clear, Direct, and Transparent Communication
We believe that excellent manufacturing begins with excellent communication. Our team is known for being responsive, honest, and easy to work with. This is something our Western clients value very highly.
We can work inside your preferred communication and project management systems. Popular tools among our clients include Slack, Asana, Basecamp, Monday dot com, Trello, Notion, and Microsoft Teams.
Throughout development and production, we provide detailed samples, test reports, inspection documents, and regular progress updates. Our aim is simple: no surprises, no avoidable mistakes, and a smooth process from start to finish.
Shenzhen Headquarters and an Open Door Philosophy
Our headquarters are located in Shenzhen, one of China's most innovative and dynamic cities. Our factory partners are based throughout Guangdong Province, close enough for daily visits, oversight, and rapid response whenever needed.
We always welcome client visits. Meeting in person and seeing the production work firsthand strengthens understanding and trust.
Presence in Europe for Smooth Collaboration
To support our clients across different time zones, we also have colleagues and partners located in Europe. This presence makes communication easier and ensures that our clients always have someone available during their own working hours.
