Win-Win Textiles

Janneke van Lieshout

Co-owner and Creative Director

HUMANOID

As co-owner and creative director of HUMANOID, I cannot express enough gratitude for the partnership we have formed with Win-Win Textiles. Their expertise in garment production has been crucial in establishing enduring relationships with both jersey and knitwear suppliers for our women's fashion brand.

The dedication of Win-Win Textiles to excellence, flexibility and attention to detail is worthy of mentioning. They have not only facilitated seamless communication between us and our suppliers but have also ensured that our creative concepts and designs are translated flawlessly into tangible products. Their ability to source innovative and sustainable alternatives has been instrumental in aligning our brand with our values of environmental responsibility and ethical production.

Working with Win-Win Textiles has not only streamlined our production processes, but has also empowered us to push the boundaries of creativity, while maintaining a focus on sustainability. Their professionalism, reliability, and commitment to excellence make them an indispensable partner in our journey towards creating timeless and conscious fashion.

“Lars was one of the first who believed in our brand.”

Lotte Vink

Co-Founder

LABFRESH

“Lars was one of the first who believed in our brand and helped us find great factories in Portugal. This had a huge impact for us as a young company with no real sourcing experience. Win-Win Textiles actually found one of the best technologies/fabrics that we still use to this day. Lars is also a true expert, when it comes to sustainability. A lot of people say that they are, but the knowledge of the team at Win-Win Textiles in Portugal goes further with a critical, reflective and yet open mind.

Overall a great partner.”
