Why source men's apparel wholesale from Turkey
Turkey commands a real edge in mid-to-premium menswear because the country owns the full vertical: Soktas and Bossa weave the shirting cotton, Yunsa weaves the wool suiting, and family-run cut-and-sew houses in Merter and Osmanbey assemble garments to the same patterns London and Milan factories use - at roughly 30 to 40 percent lower landed cost.
Production process
A typical men's program starts with a tech pack review and fabric library selection. The factory drafts a pattern in your block, sews a fit sample in 10 to 14 days, then a pre-production sample after fit approval. Bulk runs 25 to 35 days for shirting and knitwear, 35 to 45 days for tailored jackets and suiting. Final AQL 2.5 inspection is standard before shipment.
