Where do you go to have cables made?

I am building some cables for a project. The cable consists of two pieces of 5 conductor 22 awg wire cables- one 12" long the other 3" long. Molex connectors on 3 ends- one end of each cable and a double wire crimp for the connector at the junction of the two cables.

By the time I cut the wires to length from a bulk spool, strip the covering on 4 ends, strip the ends of the 5 wires on each end (20 ends), crimp on the Molex pins (20 pins) and then insert them into the housings I can make 4 - 5 complete cables per hour.

Naturally I cut all the cables at once, striped the coverings at once and then proceeded to strip and crimp connectors trying to do this in some sort of order so as to make the time most efficient.

I'm making 125 cable sets so yes a lot of time invested. So who do you call to get this sort of service done?
