Factory-Direct Wholesale Clothing Supplier: An Alternative to Wholesale Clothing Distributors
Most wholesale clothing distributors resell stock made by someone else. Fashion Soul International is the factory: we manufacture bulk clothing in Sialkot, Pakistan for retail stores, boutiques, online shops and uniform buyers, with your labels on it, from 100 pieces per style.
Buying from the factory removes a margin layer and lets you choose fabric, colour and fit. The trade-off is time: everything is made to order, so plan around the lead times below rather than next-day dispatch.
100 pcs
Minimum per style, per colour, per size run
7–14 days
Sample before you commit to bulk (business days)
20–35 days
Bulk production from sample approval
FOB / DDP
Shipped by sea or air to your warehouse or store
Bulk Clothing Suppliers for Retail Stores and Resellers
Our wholesale buyers are retailers and resellers who want their own product rather than the same branded stock every competitor carries: boutiques, multi-store chains, online stores, promotional companies and uniform suppliers.
Fashion Soul International Private Limited sells business to business only. We do not hold a warehouse of finished stock; every bulk order is cut and sewn for you, which is why we can put your label in it.
Boutiques and independent stores
Order a small capsule, three or four styles at 100 pieces each, in colours chosen for your shop and with your label in the neck.
Chains and online retailers
Seasonal basics and core lines in fixed sizes and colours, reordered against the same approved sample so every delivery matches the last.
Promo, merch and uniform suppliers
Blank or decorated garments in volume, packed by size and destination for onward distribution to your own customers.
Wholesale Clothing We Manufacture in Bulk
These are the garment types retailers order from us most often. Each can be supplied plain with your labels, or decorated with print or embroidery.
Fabric Options for Wholesale Orders
Retail buyers usually choose fabric by feel and price point. Tell us your target retail price and we will suggest the fabric weight that fits it, then send swatches before sampling.
| Fabric | Weight | Retail use |
|---|---|---|
| Cotton jersey (combed, ring-spun, organic, heavyweight) | 120–400 GSM | Basic and premium tees, polos |
| Fleece and French terry | 220–550 GSM | Hoodies, crews, sweatsuits |
| Polyester interlock and moisture-wicking polyester | 140–240 GSM | Sports and team shirts |
| Spandex 4-way stretch, Supplex nylon | 180–400 GSM | Leggings, sports bras |
| Denim | 8–14 oz | Jeans, jackets |
| Twill, canvas, Oxford | Workwear grade | Work shirts and trousers |
Recycled, bamboo, hemp and linen options are available for particular collections. Details on the fabric selection page.
Labels, Branding and Retail-Ready Packing
Wholesale orders can arrive ready for the shop floor: your neck label, swing tag with barcode or price, folded and bagged, in cartons marked by size and store.
Printed designs
Screen print for repeat retail designs, DTG or sublimation for detailed graphics.
Neck labels and swing tags
Woven labels, printed care labels and hang tags with your barcode or price.
How a Wholesale Order Works With Us: 6 Steps
A factory-direct wholesale order follows six steps, from your range plan to cartons delivered to your door.
1. Range and quantities
Send the styles, colours and size ratio you need and your target price. We quote within 24 hours.
2. Specs
We confirm fabric, measurements, labels and packing in a tech pack for each style.
3. Sample
A sample of each style is made in 7–14 business days for you to check fit and finish.
4. Order confirmation
You approve samples in writing and confirm final quantities per size.
5. Bulk production
Your order is produced in 20–35 business days with inline quality checks.
6. Inspection and delivery
AQL 2.5 inspection, carton marking by size or store, then sea or air freight on FOB or DDP terms.
More detail on each stage: our manufacturing process.
Quality Control on Bulk Wholesale Orders
For retailers the real risk is inconsistency between deliveries, so we check every bulk order against the approved sample during sewing and with an AQL 2.5 inspection before packing.
What we check
- Colour against the approved shade, lot to lot
- Size specs across the full run
- Label, tag and barcode placement
- Fold, bag and carton count per size
You receive the inspection report and photos before goods ship, so you know what is in each carton before it arrives.
Wholesale MOQ, Pricing and Lead Times
Wholesale orders start at 100 pieces per style, per colour, per size run. Expect 7–14 business days for samples and 20–35 business days for bulk, plus shipping, and a unit price set by fabric, decoration, quantity and delivery terms.
| Wholesale term | Detail |
|---|---|
| Minimum order | 100 pcs per style, colour, size run |
| Samples | Available before bulk, no minimum |
| Sample charge | Quoted with your order |
| Bulk lead time | 20–35 business days after approval |
| Ready stock | None; all orders made to order |
| Volume pricing | Confirmed with your quote |
| Capacity | 20,000–30,000 garments per month |
| Delivery | FOB Pakistan or DDP, sea or air |
| Payment | Agreed in writing before production |
What changes a wholesale price
- Fabric and weight. The single largest cost driver.
- Quantity per style. Larger runs spread set-up across more pieces.
- Decoration. Plain garments cost less than printed or embroidered ones.
- Labels and tags. Woven labels, swing tags and barcodes add small amounts.
- Packing. Individual bagging and store-split cartons take extra handling.
- Freight. Sea freight is cheaper per piece than air; DDP includes duty.

Guide: Wholesale Clothing Distributors vs Buying Direct From a Factory
A wholesale clothing distributor buys finished garments from brands or factories and resells them to retailers, usually from a warehouse with stock ready to ship. A factory-direct supplier makes the garments to your order. Both have a place; the right choice depends on how fast you need stock and how much you want the product to be yours.
Distributor vs factory direct
| Wholesale distributor | Factory direct (us) | |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | Days, from stock | Weeks, made to order |
| Your own label | Rarely | Yes |
| Choice of fabric and colour | Only what is stocked | Your choice |
| Minimum | Often per case or per pack | 100 pcs per style, colour, size run |
| Price layers | Factory, brand and distributor margin | Factory price only |
| Exclusivity | Competitors can buy the same item | Your spec and label, made for your order |
Where can I find wholesale clothing suppliers?
Trade shows, online B2B directories, industry associations and referrals are the usual routes. For any supplier, check whether they make the goods or resell them, ask for written MOQs and lead times, and order a sample before paying for volume.
Wholesale clothing for retail stores: planning tips
- Order core colours and best-selling sizes in depth, fashion colours in smaller runs.
- Agree a size ratio per style (for example S-M-L-XL) before production.
- Use the factory lead time plus shipping to set your reorder point.
- Ask for retail-ready packing so stock can go straight to the floor.
Importing wholesale clothing
On FOB terms you appoint a freight forwarder and pay duty on arrival; on DDP we deliver with duty paid. Duty rates depend on the garment’s HS code and your country, so check with a customs broker. We prepare the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill and certificate of origin.
Wholesale Clothing Supplier FAQs
What retailers and resellers ask us before ordering in bulk.
Are you a wholesale clothing distributor?
No. We are the manufacturer. We make bulk clothing to order in our Sialkot factory, so you buy at factory price with your own labels, but goods are not shipped from ready stock.
What is your wholesale minimum order?
Our wholesale minimum is 100 pieces for each style, colour and size run.
Do you have clothing in stock?
No. Every order is produced for the buyer, which takes 20–35 business days after sample approval, plus shipping.
Can I put my own labels on wholesale clothing?
Yes. Neck labels, care labels, swing tags and packaging can all carry your brand.
Do you supply wholesale clothing for retail stores?
Yes. Boutiques, chains and online stores order from us, often with retail-ready folding, bagging and cartons split by size or store.
Is it cheaper to buy from a factory than a distributor?
The unit price is usually lower because there is no distributor margin, but you order larger quantities per style and wait for production.
Which countries do you ship wholesale orders to?
We ship to buyers in the USA, UK, Europe, Canada, Australia and other markets by sea or air.
