The calendar in Nigeria sets the delivery window for hoodies & sweatshirts. Hot and humid for much of the year, with rains from April to October. Demand peaks before Christmas, Easter, Eid and the wedding season (November to February), so orders are placed 3–4 months ahead. For hoodies & sweatshirts specifically, hoodies are ordered April–July for autumn and winter in the northern hemisphere, and January–March for the southern; promotional lines peak before sports and event seasons. Our lead time is 40–55 days, plus sea transit of about 25–40 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.

Typical buyers of hoodies & sweatshirts in Abeokuta include fashion and streetwear brands, universities and schools, promotional-merchandise firms and retailers in cooler climates. In Abeokuta, they usually order 800–1,500 pieces per style, up to three colours and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.

Because the climate in Nigeria is hot, breathable fabrics move fastest. For hoodies & sweatshirts we recommend Cotton-polyester brushed fleece 280–380 GSM, with polyester fleece for sports as a value alternative, and we keep the heavier options for the cooler months only.

Sizes: S–3XL; oversized fits; kids 4–14 years. Colours: Black, grey melange, navy, bottle green, burgundy and seasonal colours with garment dyeing.

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

Heavy fabrics take space in a container, so compression packing and carton planning matter for landed cost. We typically pack hoodies compressed and give a carton-count estimate before the order is placed.

Colour and print quality drive repeat orders. We run wash tests on printed and embroidered hoodies, and we hold colour standards so a reorder matches the earlier lot.

Containers move by sea from Mundra, Kandla or Nhava Sheva to Apapa / Tin Can, about 25–40 days, then 1 day by road to Abeokuta. We quote FOB, CFR or CIF, and your clearing agent handles customs and local delivery in Abeokuta; we can coordinate with the forwarder you name.
