Direct answer
Yes — when your container slot or seasonal window is fixed, we can expedite production. Bulk production normally runs 30–45 days after order confirmation; the fastest bulk schedule is 25 days. Stock-programme quick runs take 15 days, or 10 days fastest.
What decides whether an order can be expedited
Volume and model mix
Bulk production is quoted at 30–45 days; larger runs and more models leave less room to compress.
Season
Schedules float with order volume and season, so peak months need to be booked early.
New or repeat model
A complex new ODM model needs extra engineering and testing time. Repeat models move fastest.
Specification sign-off
Sampling takes 15–25 days once details are confirmed; production opens after approval.
How to lock the fastest possible date
Send your target date, model list, quantity and colour split.
We confirm which models qualify for the quick-run window.
Sign off samples or drawings — 15–25 days on custom programmes.
Production runs, then inspection and loading at Ningbo or Shanghai.
| Programme | Typical | Fastest |
|---|---|---|
| Custom sampling | 15–25 days | Runs first |
| Bulk production | 30–45 days | 25 days |
| Stock quick run | 15 days | 10 days |
Retailers with a fixed seasonal date put best-selling models on the quick-run line and plan the rest inside the bulk window.
Limits to plan for
Fastest windows need settled specifications — an open colour or mechanism choice holds release.
Shipping is separate: we confirm production, inspection and loading; the carrier's sailing schedule is not.
Related questions
What do you need to confirm a rush schedule?
A target date, the model list, quantities and colour split, destination port, and sample approval — production cannot start before the specification is settled.
Can a new ODM model use the fastest schedule?
No. Complex new ODM functions need extra engineering and testing time, and sampling alone takes 15–25 days after details are confirmed.
Why does lead time change with season?
Bulk production floats with order volume and season, so the same model can quote differently by month. Confirm early.
In short: bulk 30–45 days (fastest 25), stock quick runs 15 days (fastest 10), sampling 15–25 days.
