Planning garment orders for Frankfurt
Four seasons with early ordering: autumn-winter by spring and spring-summer by autumn; peaks include Christmas, summer sales and back-to-school.

How an order reaches Frankfurt
Goods for Frankfurt 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 Hamburg / Rotterdam, and your clearing agent moves it on to Frankfurt. 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 Frankfurt 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.

T-Shirts: T-shirts are the highest-volume garment: bought as retail basics, promotional merchandise and event wear, in plain and printed styles.
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.

Trousers & Cargo Pants: Chinos and cargo pants bridge work and weekend wear, and utility versions are bought by contractors and uniform suppliers.

Abayas & Kaftans: Abayas and kaftans are the core of modest fashion, with demand concentrated before Ramadan and Eid and orders placed months ahead.
