Direct answer
What should a buyer send for a custom plush RFQ?
Send artwork or reference photos, target size, quantity per design, number of designs, destination market, target age, packaging request, label or barcode needs and desired delivery timing. If the design is a character, front, side and back views make sampling more accurate.
Quote-ready plush project checklist
| RFQ item | What to include | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Artwork | Front, side, back view, logo or reference photos | Helps review shape, expression and sample difficulty |
| Size | Target height or finished keychain size | Affects fabric use, stuffing, packaging and freight |
| Quantity | Units per design and number of designs | MOQ is reviewed per design and SKU plan |
| Market | Destination country and target age | Guides label, testing and warning discussion |
| Packaging | Hangtag, label, card, bag, box or display carton | Affects cost, sample approval and carton size |
| Timing | Target sample date, launch date or delivery window | Helps review whether the schedule is realistic |
