I know I'm being pedantic but there is a difference between a factory and a fulfillment service. When I read "they own a T-shirt factory" I interpret it as a place where T-shirts are made which is a much bigger cost than renting a warehouse for fulfillment.


owning a merch production operation end-to-end is not owning a fulfillment service. it says production operation end to end. read that again. do you know what "production" means?


But they don't own a production operation end to end. They partnered with a print shop, imported the shirts from Serbia, rented space in a warehouse, built a backend service to track it all.
