Planning garment orders for Suva

Tropical and humid, with a wetter season from November to April; peaks follow Diwali, Christmas, school terms and the tourist high season from June to October.

How an order reaches Suva

Goods for Suva 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 Suva, which is Suva itself, so clearance and delivery happen locally. 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 Suva 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 Suva source garments from India

Buyers want light cotton shirts, T-shirts, resortwear, school uniforms, kidswear and festive Indian wear for Diwali. 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 Suva who test a range before they commit to larger orders.
