Why Ghana needs women's & ethnic wear
Ghana has a long tradition of fashion and tailoring, and Accra and Kumasi are major import and distribution centres for the region.
Women's wear is design-led: styles sell for a season and are replaced, so boutiques, diaspora stores and online sellers reorder fresh designs ahead of festivals and seasons.
Retail chains & stores in Ghana
Retail chains, department stores and independent shops in Accra, Kumasi and Tema restock with imported shirts, T-shirts, jeans and kidswear, and increasingly ask for private-label ranges.
In Ghana, department stores and shopping-mall brands buy women's & ethnic wear from us mainly for boutiques and multi-brand fashion stores and diaspora and ethnic-wear retailers.

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.
