The garment market in Singapore
Singapore is a high-income city market and a regional trading hub, where retailers, hotels and online brands buy quality garments and re-export across South-East Asia.
Buyers here are importers and trading houses supply retailers and online brands; hotels, airlines and hospitals buy uniforms; boutiques buy Indian ethnic and fusion wear.
What buyers in Singapore look for
Buyers want quality cotton, linen and rayon garments, polos, uniforms and Indian ethnic wear for the large Indian community.
Tropical, so lightweight fabrics sell year-round; peaks follow Deepavali, Hari Raya, Lunar New Year and the year-end sales.
Import rules and labelling for Singapore
Goods clear through Singapore's TradeNet with invoice, packing list and certificate of origin; the India–Singapore trade agreement may reduce duties. Confirm with your broker.
Duties and taxes: GST on imports; most goods are duty-free. 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.
Planning your kurtis order for Singapore
A kurtis order for Singapore should be planned backwards from the selling season. Tropical, so lightweight fabrics sell year-round; peaks follow Deepavali, Hari Raya, Lunar New Year and the year-end sales. For kurtis specifically, orders for Eid, Diwali, Navratri and wedding seasons are placed 3–4 months early; casual cotton kurtis sell year-round, with summer lines peaking from January. Our lead time is 30–45 days including sampling; 20–25 days on repeat designs, 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 kurtis in Singapore include ethnic-wear boutiques in the UK, US and Gulf, online fashion marketplaces, wholesalers supplying festive stock and retail chains with a South Asian customer base. Around Singapore, they usually order 300 pieces per design with up to 4 colours; 1,200–1,500 pieces per container order for mixed designs is common and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.
Fabric, fit and colour choices for Singapore
Because the climate in Singapore is hot, breathable fabrics move fastest. For kurtis we recommend Cotton cambric and voile 90–120 GSM, with cotton-linen and slub cotton as a value alternative, and we keep the heavier options for the cooler months only.
Sizes: S–XXL standard, 3XL–5XL plus-size, lengths 36–48 inches; free-size short tunics for boutiques. Colours: Wide solid and print palettes with 4–6 colourways per design; festive palettes for Eid, Diwali and wedding seasons.
Kurtis made in bulk to your colour, size and design
You are not limited to stock designs. We make kurtis in bulk in the colour you choose, in the sizes and size ratio your customers wear, and in the design you supply for the Singapore 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.
- Colour: Wide solid and print palettes with 4–6 colourways per design; festive palettes for Eid, Diwali and wedding seasons.

About our kurtis
Design cycles are quick: a design that sells can be repeated within three weeks. We photograph every sample on a model and send size charts and fabric details so your buyers or online listings are ready before the goods arrive.
To control returns, we measure a fit sample of each block, grade it carefully, and check measurements on every carton sample against the spec sheet, with particular attention to length, bust and sleeve.
