Product Design and Manufacturing

DIRECT FROM THE FACTORY TO YOUR AUDIENCE

Overview

Cultured Group’s product design and manufacturing service is built for creators to bring their product ideas to life. We focus on producing high-quality, category-defining products made from next-generation materials. By working with us, creators can develop products in a transparent way where the factory and production process are part of the brand and story. 

We have partnered with Veshin and their network of factories to provide creators the opportunity to design and produce products direct from the factory.

How We’re Different

We have designed the service around the unique needs of creators, most of which have little or no experience developing physical products. There are four key areas that sets us apart:

We Are The Factory - we either own or work inside the factories to ensure quality.

Next-gen Materials - we specialize in recycled, biobased, and next-generation materials.

Full Service - design, material testing, sourcing, sampling, prototyping, and production, all in one place.

Transparent Supply Chains - Product journey is monitored from raw materials to final product.

We have the ability to design and produce products ranging from more affordable to luxury and from pre-set to highly customized designs. Our current capabilities include:

Apparel and accessories

Automotive

Bags

Footwear

Homegoods

Hospitality

Sporting goods

Outerwear (coming soon...)

We work directly with 20+ suppliers at the forefront of material innovation. We work with these biobased, recycled, and next-generation materials wherever possible.

Our number #1 rule - NO GREENWASHING.

We have partnered with Veshin and their global network of factories to provide creators the opportunity to design and produce products direct from the factory. Each factory brings its own unique capabilities and specialties—but all share a common commitment to transparent production and ethical supply chains.

Finer Details

We have designed our services to meet the creators wherever they are along the journey. Below is a summary of our core services.

Technical Design Packages

Our designers meet with you to translate your vision into a set of designs and technical documents that include specifications for manufacturing.

Estimated Timeline: ~30 days

Sampling

Our designers work inside the factory to produce physical samples of your products. Sampling allows you to touch, feel, and make any further modifications before going to commercial production.

Estimated Timeline: ~30 days per revision

Production

It’s go time! We handle all material sourcing and purchasing so products are ready to enter commercial production at our factories. We provide regular updates and manufacturing footage upon request so you can include in your marketing efforts.

Estimated Timeline:

Production: 2-3 months upon arrival of materials

Plan 9-12 months from initial design to receiving product for custom designs.

Plan 5-6 months from initial design to receiving product for white-label.
