Planning your shirts order for Sumgait
A shirts order for Sumgait should be planned backwards from the selling season. Four seasons with cold, windy winters in Baku; winter lines are ordered by spring and spring-summer lines by autumn; peaks follow Novruz (March), the school year and the New Year. For shirts specifically, formal shirts sell year-round with peaks before the new school or business year and before festive seasons; linen blends peak for spring and summer orders placed in November–February. Our lead time is 40–55 days from approved sample; 25–30 days on repeat poplin styles, plus sea transit of about 25–40 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of shirts in Sumgait include corporate uniform suppliers, menswear retailers, wholesalers in Gulf and African markets and department stores and private-label brands. In Sumgait, they usually order 1,000–2,000 pieces per style, with fabric-led minimums of 1,500 metres for yarn-dyed checks and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.
Fabric, fit and colour choices for Sumgait
For Sumgait we suggest planning shirts in two drops, one in lighter fabrics and one in heavier ones, so stock matches the weather rather than sitting unsold.
Sizes: Collar 14–18.5 inches or S–3XL, sleeve lengths regular and long; slim, regular and comfort fit blocks. Colours: White, blue, sky, grey, black and navy solids, plus yarn-dyed checks and stripes; custom colourways on yarn-dyed orders.
Shirts made in bulk to your colour, size and design
You are not limited to stock designs. We make shirts in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the Sumgait market. A reference garment, a tech pack, a sketch or even a photograph is enough to start.
How it works: send a Pantone code or fabric swatch for colour and we return a lab-dip; send your size chart and the ratio you want in each carton; send artwork, print, embroidery or label files for the design. We make a sample for approval and then produce the bulk to that approved sample, so the order you receive matches the one you signed off.
- Colour: White, blue, sky, grey, black and navy solids, plus yarn-dyed checks and stripes; custom colourways on yarn-dyed orders.
- Size: Collar 14–18.5 inches or S–3XL, sleeve lengths regular and long; slim, regular and comfort fit blocks.
- Design and branding: own check and stripe designs on yarn-dyed fabric, embroidered logos for corporate shirts, custom collar and cuff shapes and private-label packing and hang tags.
About our shirts
We specify poplin and Oxford fabrics by thread count and weight, and ask for a shrinkage and colour-fastness test on each fabric lot before cutting. For checks and stripes, yarn-dyed fabric is woven specifically for your design, which is why the minimum is set by fabric metres rather than garment pieces.
Corporate and uniform buyers often need the same shirt reproduced for years, so we keep fabric codes, patterns and size grading on file and can match a previous order exactly, including shade, when the next order comes.
