Question 1

What do you manufacture for military and government programs?

Accepted Answer

Military T-shirts, physical training T-shirts and shorts, Army shorts, Air Force running apparel, Space Force PT and issue garments, aviator garments, and underwear, for the Space Force, Air Force, Army, Navy, and Coast Guard. We are manufacturers of military gear for the DLA, and every program is produced under our own management and quality control from our Brooklyn facility.

Question 2

Can you produce Berry Amendment compliant garments?

Accepted Answer

Yes. When a solicitation invokes the Berry Amendment (10 U.S.C. 4862), our sourcing team procures Berry-compliant domestic fabric, thread, and trim for that program. Production, inspection, and pack-out are managed by our own team in Brooklyn.

Question 3

What are your CAGE code, UEI, and SAM.gov details?

Accepted Answer

They travel with our capability statement, along with our socio-economic status and past-performance summary, so you get the current version rather than a cached web page. Call (718) 797-4404 or email chajim@keknits.com and we will send it over, plus anything else your solicitation requires from us.

Question 4

Are you taking on new military and government programs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The floor is running government work today and has open capacity for more of it: new DLA and government solicitations across every branch, and larger recurring programs we can run for years. Send the solicitation number with the spec and quantities and we will respond against current availability.

Question 5

How large a program can you take on?

Accepted Answer

Our Brooklyn facility runs high-volume cut-and-sew production with cut-and-sew capacity of 36,000+ units per week. Actual output depends on the garment, the specification, and the materials, so we quote against real floor time rather than a published rate.

Question 6

Where are your garments and materials produced?

Accepted Answer

Every garment is made in the United States. Programs are run from our Brooklyn facility, where our team manages production, inspection, and pack-out to one quality standard. Raw materials are procured to your contract requirements, sourcing Berry-compliant domestic goods whenever a solicitation calls for them.

Question 7

Do you support Government Source Inspection (GSI)?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We follow the quality and inspection requirements of each government contract. When a contract specifies Government Source Inspection, the assigned government Quality Assurance Representative (QAR) inspects and accepts the goods at our Brooklyn facility before shipment, and we provide the space, records, and production access the inspection needs. Our own multi-point inspection runs on every program, whether or not source inspection applies.

Question 8

What does production actually look like on your floor?

Accepted Answer

Fabric is staged, spread, and cut in our cutting room, sewn on lines organized per garment by long-tenured operators, inspected multi-point before pack-out, and shipped under our name. One team is accountable for the program from first article to final delivery.

Question 9

Do you manufacture clothing for commercial brands?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Apparel brands, uniform buyers, and retailers use the same Brooklyn floor for Made in USA T-shirts, activewear, shorts, underwear, sweaters, and medical and protective goods. Send a tech pack or a sample with quantities and we will quote it against real floor time.

Question 10

We supply fabric or trim. How do we become a supplier?

Accepted Answer

Email chajim@keknits.com with the subject "Supplier introduction" and include what you produce, country of origin and Berry Amendment documentation, minimums, and lead times. Domestic, Berry-compliant mills, converters, and trim suppliers are considered first for upcoming programs.

Question 11

How quickly can you deliver?

Accepted Answer

Timing depends entirely on the garment, the quantity, and the material lead times for that program, so we do not publish standard estimates. Send us the specification and quantities and we will give you dates we can actually hold.

Question 12

Can prospective customers visit the Brooklyn factory floor?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We encourage program managers, contracting teams, and sourcing managers to visit our facility at 63 Flushing Avenue, Building 88, in Brooklyn, NY. Walkthroughs can be scheduled during regular business hours (Mon-Fri 8am-5pm EST).
