Kurtis Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter in United States

The United States is the world's largest apparel market and India's biggest garment export destination, with brands, department stores, online sellers and a large South Asian and African diaspora.

Buyers here are importers and brands in New York, Los Angeles, Houston and Atlanta supply retailers and online sellers; ethnic-wear wholesalers buy kurtis and kaftans; uniform and promotional firms buy polos, caps and hoodies.

Buyers want cotton T-shirts, hoodies, jeans, activewear, sustainable fabrics, ethnic and fusion wear, school uniforms and promotional apparel.

Four seasons, with fall-winter ranges ordered by spring and spring-summer by autumn; peaks include Black Friday, back-to-school and the holiday season.

Garments must be labelled with fibre content, country of origin and care instructions; children's wear follows CPSIA safety rules and flammability standards; an importer of record, customs bond and the correct HTS code are needed.

Duties and taxes: Customs duty at the border; sales/use tax is state-level, not a federal VAT. 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.

Timing decides whether kurtis sell at full price or at a discount in United States. Four seasons, with fall-winter ranges ordered by spring and spring-summer by autumn; peaks include Black Friday, back-to-school and the holiday season. 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 30–45 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.

Typical buyers of kurtis in United States 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 New York, Los Angeles, Houston and Atlanta, 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.

For United States 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.

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 United States 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.

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.

Containers move by sea from Mundra, Kandla or Nhava Sheva to New York/New Jersey, about 30–45 days. We quote FOB, CFR or CIF, and your clearing agent handles customs and local delivery in United States; we can coordinate with the forwarder you name.

Folded in individual polybags with design and size stickers, 40–60 pieces per carton. Before loading we share a photo, video and measurement report so you can approve what is in the container. Hand wash or gentle machine wash cold, dry in shade, iron on reverse; embroidered pieces should be washed separately.

Documents supplied with every shipment: commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and bill of lading, plus test reports and compliance documents where your market asks for them. Payment terms: 50% advance with order confirmation and 50% before dispatch against export documents; L/C at sight can be discussed for larger orders.
