Buyer questions
Before you send the brief.
Quick answers on quantities, sampling, quality and partner credentials.
GARWEVIA is a Tiruppur-based apparel sourcing and manufacturing-management company. We match each product to selected manufacturing partners in our network and manage development, production, quality control and shipment for you — one accountable point of contact in India.
MOQ depends on the fabric, colour, process and manufacturing partner — for example, custom-dyed fabric or special yarns usually need higher quantities per colour than stock fabrics. Send your quantities per style and colour and we will confirm what is achievable.
Yes. We develop private label and custom knitwear to your tech pack or reference garment — including fabric, GSM, fit, prints, embroidery, labels, hangtags and packaging to your brand standards.
A tech pack or reference garment, fabric composition and GSM if known, quantity per style and colour, colour requirements, any certification or testing requirements, target FOB price and your delivery timeline and destination.
Timelines depend on product complexity, fabric development, approvals and order size. We share a time-and-action plan for your program once the requirement is reviewed, and update it at every stage.
Yes. We source labels, hang tags, buttons, snaps, zippers, drawcords, elastics, patches, threads and packaging — matched to your brand standards and approved on a trim card. They can be attached in production or supplied as a standalone accessories program.
Yes — selected partner factories and suppliers may hold GOTS, OCS, GRS, RCS or OEKO-TEX certification, and WRAP, SMETA, amfori BSCI or SA8000 audit status. Certificate scope and validity are verified for each program; GARWEVIA does not claim these certifications as its own.
Through a documented quality workflow: specification review, fabric and trim approval, lab dips and strike-offs, fit and PP samples, a pre-production meeting, inline inspection, final random inspection to the agreed AQL and packing verification — with reports and photos.
Yes. We work with brands, retailers and sourcing teams abroad, typically on FOB terms, and coordinate packing, documentation and shipment to your destination or forwarder.
Tiruppur is India’s largest knitwear cluster, with yarn, knitting, dyeing, printing, embroidery, garmenting and export logistics close together — which shortens development and gives access to a wide range of manufacturing capabilities.
