Kidswear Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter in Egypt

Egypt is a large, price-sensitive market of over 100 million people, with Cairo and Alexandria supplying retail and wholesale across the Nile Delta, Upper Egypt and neighbouring Libya and Sudan.

Buyers here are importers register through the Advance Cargo Information system and supply wholesalers in Cairo and Alexandria; retailers and e-commerce sellers buy fashion basics; schools and institutions buy uniforms.

Value-priced T-shirts, jeans, kidswear, hoodies and modest wear dominate; abayas, galabiyas and school uniforms sell in large volumes.

Summers are hot and winters mild, so cotton sells year-round with hoodies from November to February. Peaks follow Ramadan, Eid, back-to-school (September) and the summer wedding season.

Importers need a registered account and an Advance Cargo Information number for each shipment; labelling in Arabic and quality checks may apply. Confirm current rules with a local broker.

Duties and taxes: Customs duty plus VAT; ACI pre-registration required. Rates change, so confirm the HS code and duty with your customs broker before you finalise landed cost; we supply the invoice, packing list and certificate of origin needed for clearance.

The calendar in Egypt sets the delivery window for kidswear. Summers are hot and winters mild, so cotton sells year-round with hoodies from November to February. Peaks follow Ramadan, Eid, back-to-school (September) and the summer wedding season. For kidswear specifically, back-to-school in July–September in the northern hemisphere and January–February in the southern; festive and winter lines are ordered 4–5 months ahead. Our lead time is 35–50 days from approved sample, plus sea transit of about 14–22 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.

Typical buyers of kidswear in Egypt include children's boutiques, wholesalers supplying markets and chains, online baby and kids stores and schools and charities buying bulk clothing. Around Cairo, Alexandria and Port Said, they usually order 500–1,000 pieces per design; sets can be mixed by size within a design and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.

Because the climate in Egypt is hot, breathable fabrics move fastest. For kidswear we recommend 100% combed cotton single jersey 140–180 GSM, with cotton poplin and voile for frocks as a value alternative, and we keep the heavier options for the cooler months only.

Sizes: Newborn–24 months, 2–14 years; size by age and height with a graded spec chart. Colours: Bright and pastel palettes; gender-neutral colourways; character-free prints unless licensed.

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

We insist on a safety review for each style: no small parts that can detach, no drawcords at the neck, tested dyes and flat seams. Where your market asks for a declaration, we send it with the shipment documents.

For wholesalers, size mix matters. Kids' sizes sell unevenly through the year, so we suggest a ratio based on the age profile of your customers, and we hold fabric for repeat orders of the sizes that sell out first.

Containers move by sea from Mundra, Kandla or Nhava Sheva to Alexandria, about 14–22 days. We quote FOB, CFR or CIF, and your clearing agent handles customs and local delivery in Egypt; we can coordinate with the forwarder you name.

Polybagged with size stickers and in cartons of 50–100 pieces; gift packing for baby sets. Before loading we share a photo, video and measurement report so you can approve what is in the container. Machine wash cold with mild detergent, tumble dry low; do not bleach.

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.
