The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 400 Change of Strategy

Before, Abigail had suggested using overseas suppliers. However, overseas import seemed impractical, especially for an item this small. Those companies probably wouldn’t even take them seriously if they were to request it, thinking that it was a prank call.

“Let’s try contacting foreign processing factories,” Abigail said to Luna.

They were at their wit’s end; they had to try every possible avenue to come up with a workable. solution.

“I’ll give it a shot.”

If only they could change the material… Alas, the hangtag was also a brand’s logo. Many consumers had a preconceived notion about the brand, and buying with that trust felt secure. Changing it would make them uneasy.

“There’s a clothing exhibition in Sicuaro next week. Let’s attend it together,” Luna said after contacting the foreign clients.

“To find suppliers?” Abigail inquired.

“Yes. I didn’t plan on going, but that was before all this. We didn’t lack subcontractors prior to this. Now, this is looking like our one last resort,” Luna said, a touch of resignation in her voice.

As soon as the call ended, an assistant rushed in from outside, saying, “The fabric scheduled for today is deemed substandard and has been detained by foreign customs!”

The workers were all waiting to start making clothes with this batch of fabric. Now, something like this happened?

“Did they say what the problem is?” Abigail asked the assistant.

“They didn’t say anything. They just wouldn’t let it through. I doubt we’ll ever get this batch back,” the assistant reported.

Luna knew she was likely right. Once foreign customs confiscated something, it was incredibly difficult to resolve, even with a hefty fine. If people were obstructing their business behind the scenes, this batch was almost as good as lost.

Originally, this fabric was supposed to arrive today, and the workers would have a month’s worth of work. Now…
