Kurtis Supplier & Exporter in Ghent, Belgium

Ghent is one of Belgium's gateway ports, so containers from India land close to buyers. Contractors around Ghent clothe whole crews with workwear and safety garments. Schools, hospitals and institutions in Ghent order uniforms every year.

Kurtis have moved beyond South Asian communities: boutiques, diaspora stores and online sellers reorder fresh prints and cuts before every festival. In Ghent that demand comes mainly from online marketplaces & d2c brands, wholesale & trading houses and ethnic, festive & diaspora wear.

E-commerce brands in Ghent reorder best-sellers in small lots, so short lead times, clear MOQs and reliable colour matching matter more than the lowest unit price.

Wholesalers in Ghent buy garments by the carton and the container, favouring fast-moving sizes and colours of T-shirts, jeans, leggings and kidswear. Mixed-style containers let them test new lines without carrying a large stock of any one design.

Diaspora and heritage communities in Ghent buy kurtis, kaftans, abayas and festive wear, and shops reorder ahead of every major festival, so lead time must be planned around those dates.

Ghent receives containers locally; its strongest garment sectors are workwear & safety clothing, schools, institutions & corporate uniforms, wholesale & trading houses and online marketplaces & d2c brands. Kurtis also finds buyers in fashion brands & private label.

Workwear & Corporate Uniforms: Mines, oil sites, contractors, hotels and hospitals clothe whole crews, and re-clothe them when contracts start or garments wear out. Many Ghent buyers add it to the same container.

Trousers & Cargo Pants: Chinos and cargo pants bridge work and weekend wear, and utility versions are bought by contractors and uniform suppliers. Many Ghent buyers add it to the same container.

Polo T-Shirts: Polos are the world's most-ordered uniform top: hotels, security firms, schools and corporates reorder them for staff and renew them every year. Many Ghent buyers add it to the same container.

Shirts: Formal and casual shirts are staple stock for menswear retailers and uniform suppliers, reordered as sizes and colours sell out. Many Ghent buyers add it to the same container.

A kurtis order for Ghent should be planned backwards from the selling season. Four seasons; peaks include the sales periods, Christmas and community festivals. For kurtis specifically, orders for Eid, Diwali, Navratri and wedding seasons are placed 3–4 months early; casual cotton kurtis sell year-round, with summer lines peaking from January. Our lead time is 30–45 days including sampling; 20–25 days on repeat designs, plus sea transit of about 20–30 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.

Typical buyers of kurtis in Ghent include ethnic-wear boutiques in the UK, US and Gulf, online fashion marketplaces, wholesalers supplying festive stock and retail chains with a South Asian customer base. In Ghent, they usually order 300 pieces per design with up to 4 colours; 1,200–1,500 pieces per container order for mixed designs is common and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.

Belgium has distinct seasons, so we split kurtis into two ranges: lighter fabrics such as cotton cambric and voile 90–120 GSM for spring and summer, and heavier options such as georgette and chanderi for festive lines for autumn and winter.

Sizes: S–XXL standard, 3XL–5XL plus-size, lengths 36–48 inches; free-size short tunics for boutiques. Colours: Wide solid and print palettes with 4–6 colourways per design; festive palettes for Eid, Diwali and wedding seasons.

You are not limited to stock designs. We make kurtis in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the Ghent 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.

To control returns, we measure a fit sample of each block, grade it carefully, and check measurements on every carton sample against the spec sheet, with particular attention to length, bust and sleeve.

The kurti has moved well beyond South Asian communities. Women in Africa, the Gulf, Europe and North America now buy kurtis as relaxed tunics, and retailers add them for the comfort and print. We work with units in Jaipur, Delhi, Kolkata and Surat that print, embroider and stitch under one roof, which keeps the timeline short.

Containers move by sea from Mundra, Kandla or Nhava Sheva to Ghent, about 20–30 days. We quote FOB, CFR or CIF, and your clearing agent handles customs and local delivery in Ghent; we can coordinate with the forwarder you name.

Folded in individual polybags with design and size stickers, 40–60 pieces per carton. Before loading we share a photo, video and measurement report so you can approve what is in the container. Hand wash or gentle machine wash cold, dry in shade, iron on reverse; embroidered pieces should be washed separately.

Documents supplied with every shipment: commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and bill of lading, plus test reports and compliance documents where your market asks for them. Payment terms: 50% advance with order confirmation and 50% before dispatch against export documents; L/C at sight can be discussed for larger orders.
