Lyon is served through Marseille-Fos, with 1 day by road to the city; its strongest garment sectors are workwear & safety clothing and schools, institutions & corporate uniforms.

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

School Uniforms: Schools reorder uniforms every term; tenders are won on price and lost on delivery, and a matching shade must be repeated for years. Many Lyon buyers add it to the same container.

A workwear & corporate uniforms order for Lyon should be planned backwards from the selling season. Four seasons; peaks include the winter and summer sales and Christmas. For workwear & corporate uniforms specifically, industrial and hospitality uniforms are ordered through the year, with peaks at the start of contracts and fiscal years. Our lead time is 35–55 days; hi-vis and flame-retardant styles 45–60 days, 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 workwear & corporate uniforms in Lyon include mining and oil-field contractors, construction and engineering firms, hotels, restaurants and hospitals and security, logistics and facilities companies. In Lyon, they usually order 500–1,000 pieces per style; contract orders for mines or plants can be much larger and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.

For Lyon we suggest planning workwear & corporate uniforms in two drops, one in lighter fabrics and one in heavier ones, so stock matches the weather rather than sitting unsold.

Sizes: S–5XL regular, tall and short fits; women's cuts available. Colours: Navy, royal, orange, grey, white, khaki and hi-vis yellow and orange; custom corporate shades.

You are not limited to stock designs. We make workwear & corporate uniforms in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the Lyon 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.

Workwear is a safety product as much as a garment. Hi-vis vests must meet visibility standards, coveralls must resist tearing, and everything must survive industrial laundering. We therefore specify fabric weight, reflective tape and seam construction in the purchase order and test them in the final inspection.

Many of our workwear buyers are contractors in Africa and the Gulf who clothe hundreds of workers at once. We deliver in size runs per site, with names or logos applied before shipping, so crews can be issued uniforms on arrival.

Containers move by sea from Mundra, Kandla or Nhava Sheva to Marseille-Fos, about 20–30 days, then 1 day by road to Lyon. We quote FOB, CFR or CIF, and your clearing agent handles customs and local delivery in Lyon; we can coordinate with the forwarder you name.

Folded in polybags by size, 20–40 pieces per carton; bulk packing by department or site. Before loading we share a photo, video and measurement report so you can approve what is in the container. Industrial wash at 60 °C, tumble dry, durable press finish; hi-vis garments should avoid fabric softener.

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.
