industrial sewing workshop


Explanation:
This is more suitable in an industrial context. Not really the litte shop on the high street (Golden Scissors or similar)

neutral  Fred ten Berge: Slight doubts, mainly about this reference! 1) Adidas non-industrial? 2) Adidas a genuine connection with 'een beetje naaiwerk'?

ready-to-wear workshop


Explanation:
If GENUINLY 'INDUSTRIAL'!
11.400 googles for the 'workshop'-version
117,000 for a feasable 'ready-to-wear company'-version (= industrial at a larger scale)
Sorry, I've just been called for an urgent job/reply!
More refs + explanation will follow upon request.

Success!

Typo: \'feasible\'1
The vakjargon amongst Dutch confectiebedrijven used to be, and still is: confectieatelier, even on a very, very small scale in this branch.
