Planning garment orders for Canberra
Seasons are reversed; summer from December to February; winter ranges are ordered by December; peaks include Christmas, Boxing Day and the end-of-financial-year sales. We ship from Mundra, Kandla or Nhava Sheva to Sydney in about 20–35 days; production takes 25 to 60 days, so confirm peak-season orders for Canberra three to five months ahead.
How an order reaches Canberra
Goods for Canberra are cut, sewn and finished in our partner factories, inspected on an AQL basis and consolidated at our Gujarat base, then loaded at Mundra, Kandla or Nhava Sheva. The container is discharged at Sydney, and your clearing agent moves it on to Canberra. We quote FOB, CFR or CIF, and we send the invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and bill of lading as soon as the container is loaded.
Importers in Canberra usually start with a mixed first container to test the market: two or three fast-moving basics, one design-led line and a few trial styles. Repeat orders then concentrate on the lines that sell, which shortens the lead time because fabric and patterns are already on file.
Why importers in Canberra source garments from India
Buyers want quality cotton basics, activewear, linen and resortwear, ethnic wear, hi-vis workwear and school uniforms. Indian factories supply the fabrics these buyers ask for, such as cotton, rayon, linen blends, denim and knits, in small design runs, which suits importers in Canberra who test a range before they commit to larger orders.

A mixed first container with two or three fast-moving basics, one design-led line and a few trial styles is the usual way in, and repeat orders then concentrate on what sells.
Garments in highest demand in Canberra
Jeans: Denim is the garment that sells in every market: jeans are bought for every season, and retailers and wholesalers reorder washes and fits as sizes sell through.
Printed Shirts: Printed shirts are fast fashion for warm-weather and resort markets: designs age quickly and are replaced each season.
Ladies Tops & Dresses: Women's tops and dresses are trend products: styles are bought for a season and replaced, so online sellers and boutiques value small, fast runs.
T-Shirts: T-shirts are the highest-volume garment: bought as retail basics, promotional merchandise and event wear, in plain and printed styles.
Leggings: Leggings are among the highest-volume women's garments, bought by wholesalers and retailers in dozens of colours and reordered constantly.
Abayas & Kaftans: Abayas and kaftans are the core of modest fashion, with demand concentrated before Ramadan and Eid and orders placed months ahead.

Track Pants & Shorts: Track pants and shorts serve sport, home and travel, and are easy for wholesalers to sell because they fit many body sizes.
Kurtis: Kurtis have moved beyond South Asian communities: boutiques, diaspora stores and online sellers reorder fresh prints and cuts before every festival.

Shirts: Formal and casual shirts are staple stock for menswear retailers and uniform suppliers, reordered as sizes and colours sell out.
