A sportswear & jerseys order for Waterford should be planned backwards from the selling season. Mild, wet weather all year, so layers and fleece sell broadly; peaks include back-to-school in August, Black Friday and Christmas. For sportswear & jerseys specifically, sports kits are ordered ahead of each season; cricket and football orders cluster before tournaments and school sports terms. Our lead time is 20–35 days for custom kits; 40 days for large club orders, 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 sportswear & jerseys in Waterford include football, cricket and rugby clubs, sports academies and schools, fitness and athleisure retailers and event and promotional organisers. In Waterford, they usually order 50–100 sets per design for custom sublimated kits; 500 pieces for stock designs and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.

For Waterford we suggest planning sportswear & jerseys in two drops, one in lighter fabrics and one in heavier ones, so stock matches the weather rather than sitting unsold.

Sizes: S–3XL adult; kids 6–14 years; custom size lists per team. Colours: Full-colour sublimation in any design; solid and panelled colours.

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

For a club, the order is a list: a design, sizes per player, names and numbers. We prepare mock-ups for approval, collect the size and number list, and pack by player so the kit is ready to hand out.

Retailers can also buy stock designs in standard colours, which suits buyers who want fast delivery without a design brief.

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

Packed by team and size, with names and numbers bundled per player; carton markings per team. Before loading we share a photo, video and measurement report so you can approve what is in the container. Wash cold, hang dry, avoid bleach and fabric softener; do not iron prints.

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.
