Chiang Mai: the market for kurtis
Chiang Mai is reached from Laem Chabang after 2 days by road. Hotels, resorts and restaurants in Chiang Mai buy staff uniforms and light resortwear. Institutional buyers in Chiang Mai tender for school and corporate uniforms.
Kurtis have moved beyond South Asian communities: boutiques, diaspora stores and online sellers reorder fresh prints and cuts before every festival. In Chiang Mai that demand comes mainly from wholesale & trading houses, fashion brands & private label and online marketplaces & d2c brands.
Wholesalers in Chiang Mai buy garments by the carton and the container, favouring fast-moving sizes and colours of T-shirts, jeans, leggings and kidswear. Mixed-style containers let them test new lines without carrying a large stock of any one design.
Designers in Chiang Mai need a partner that can turn a tech pack into a sample in days, and produce 300 pieces of a style as easily as 3,000, with certified or organic fabrics where required.
Online sellers in Chiang Mai need accurate size charts, consistent quality and fast restocks of winning styles, which suits small-batch Indian production with sampling and photography support.

Planning your kurtis order for Chiang Mai
Timing decides whether kurtis sell at full price or at a discount in Chiang Mai. Hot and humid year-round with a rainy season from May to October; peaks follow Songkran, the winter tourist season and year-end holidays. 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 Chiang Mai 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. In Chiang Mai, 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 Chiang Mai
For Chiang Mai we suggest planning kurtis in two drops, one in lighter fabrics and one in heavier ones, so stock matches the weather rather than sitting unsold.
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 Chiang Mai 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.
- Size: S–XXL standard, 3XL–5XL plus-size, lengths 36–48 inches; free-size short tunics for boutiques.
- Design and branding: own prints and embroidery designs, matching dupattas and bottoms, custom neck and sleeve patterns and private-label packaging and hang tags.
About our kurtis
The kurti has moved well beyond South Asian communities. Women in Africa, the Gulf, Europe and North America now buy kurtis as relaxed tunics, and retailers add them for the comfort and print. We work with units in Jaipur, Delhi, Kolkata and Surat that print, embroider and stitch under one roof, which keeps the timeline short.
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.
