Abayas & Kaftans Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter in Indonesia

Indonesia is South-East Asia's largest consumer market, with very strong online fashion platforms, a young population and a large modest-fashion segment.

Buyers here are importers in Jakarta and Surabaya supply retail chains and online sellers; modest-fashion brands buy specialist lines; wholesalers buy basics and kidswear.

Buyers like modest, loose-cut cotton and rayon fashion, kaftans, tunics, T-shirts, hoodies and school uniforms.

Tropical, so lightweight fabrics sell year-round; peaks follow Ramadan, Lebaran (Eid al-Fitr), back-to-school (July) and year-end sales.

Garments are subject to import licensing and labelling rules, with Bahasa Indonesia labels; confirm current requirements with your broker.

Duties and taxes: Import duty plus VAT/GST (ASEAN-India FTA preferences may apply). 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.

A abayas & kaftans order for Indonesia should be planned backwards from the selling season. Tropical, so lightweight fabrics sell year-round; peaks follow Ramadan, Lebaran (Eid al-Fitr), back-to-school (July) and year-end sales. For abayas & kaftans specifically, orders peak before Ramadan and Eid, placed 4–5 months in advance; kaftans sell around summer and holiday seasons. Our lead time is 40–60 days; embellished styles can take 60–75 days, plus sea transit of about 10–20 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.

Typical buyers of abayas & kaftans in Indonesia include modest-fashion boutiques in the Gulf and Europe, wholesalers supplying Ramadan and Eid stock, online modest-fashion brands and retailers serving African Muslim communities. Around Jakarta, Surabaya and Medan, they usually order 200–300 pieces per design; embroidered styles from 150 pieces and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.

Indonesia is warm for most of the year, so we steer buyers of abayas & kaftans towards the lighter end of the range: Nida and crepe 130–180 GSM or cotton and linen-blend kaftans. Heavier blends feel uncomfortable in the heat and slow sell-through in the shops.

Sizes: Length 50–60 inches in even sizes, free size and plus sizes up to 5XL; kids 4–14 years. Colours: Black, navy, taupe, olive, burgundy and neutrals, with pastel kaftan prints.

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

Opacity and drape are the quality tests that matter. We check each fabric for opacity in light, confirm that the abaya hangs correctly on a model, and verify that embroidery does not pucker the fabric.

Modest fashion is one of the fastest-growing segments of women's wear, and abayas and kaftans are its core. Demand is concentrated around Ramadan and Eid, which means orders must be planned months ahead; late orders arrive after the season and sell at a discount.

Containers move by sea from Mundra, Kandla or Nhava Sheva to Tanjung Priok, about 10–20 days. We quote FOB, CFR or CIF, and your clearing agent handles customs and local delivery in Indonesia; we can coordinate with the forwarder you name.

Hanger-packed or folded in individual polybags; 20–30 pieces per carton. Before loading we share a photo, video and measurement report so you can approve what is in the container. Gentle machine wash or dry clean for embellished abayas; steam rather than iron.

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.
