Made in USA production About OneAim

We get small brands’ clothing made in the USA.

We started OneAim after watching fashion brands get ghosted by factories: briefs sent by email and never answered, or orders placed with a factory that wasn’t set up for the product or the quantity.

Now our team does one job. We read your brief, place it with a US factory that already makes your product, in Los Angeles, New York or the Carolinas, and make sure the label on it is legal.

Why only the United States

A 100-unit run doesn’t need a container ship.

Small brands reorder what sells. That works best when the factory is a truck ride from your warehouse: stock made here ships by ground in 1–5 days to the lower 48, with no ocean freight, no customs and no import tariffs on the finished garments.

It also means you can drive or fly domestic to see your sample on the table, and your label can honestly say “Made in USA”, worded the way the FTC expects. That’s why every brief we take is made in the United States, and only there.

What we stand for

Three rules we never break.

They decide which factory you get, what you pay us and what we tell you when the answer isn’t the one you hoped for.

  1. 01Rule

    No factory kickbacks

    Factories never pay us. Our fee is flat, in USD, quoted in writing before any work starts and never tied to your order size. The factory bills you directly for production. That’s the only way our factory choice stays about fit.

  2. 02Rule

    Honest answers first

    If the US is wrong for your product, we say so in the first reply. Brands chasing the lowest unit price on 10,000+ units, footwear and bags are not a fit. We’d rather lose a project than ship you into a wall.

  3. 03Rule

    Small batches matter

    We place runs from 100 units per style with factories that take them seriously, so you reorder what sells instead of sitting on a thousand of each. Independent brands built this industry.

Where your order gets made

Three US hubs, each built for different products.

American apparel production sits in a few places. We place your brief with the hub that already makes your product, so you’re not paying a factory to learn it.
