Custom Ethnic Scarves & Shawls & Bandanas in Combed Cotton with Woven Jacquard Weaving for Travel and Resort Collections

Custom Ethnic Scarves & Shawls & Bandanas — Combed Cotton with Woven Jacquard Weaving

We make ethnic scarves & shawls & bandanas built around samoan tatau linework, produced in Combed Cotton with Woven Jacquard Weaving. Ethnic accessory programmes fail on the details: bead count per motif, stitch density, trim weight and colour matching all have to hold across a repeat order, so we set them in the tech pack and confirm them on a sample before bulk. Programmes start at 200 pieces per style per colour and ship to Lagos or Durban.

The failures here are predictable: inconsistent sizing between production runs, and minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb. We lock the specification before bulk — materials, trim attachment strength, dye lot and tolerance — and prepare SONCAP so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while Eid and wedding gifting demand passes.

Import, duty and delivery

SONCAP or PVoC pre-export verification is arranged before the goods leave the factory. We ship to Lagos or Durban with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and quote landed cost so duty and tax are visible before you commit. Reorders draw on the approved specification held on file — which matters when you are buying against Eid and wedding gifting demand.

FAQ

How long does sampling take?

A first prototype is typically ready in 14 working days after the tech pack is confirmed, including fabric sourcing if the base cloth is not in our stock library. Revisions add about 3 days each.

What file formats do you need for artwork?

Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) give the best print and embroidery results. For raster artwork please supply at least 300 dpi at the final print size. We digitise embroidery files in-house and return a sew-out photo for approval.

What is the minimum order quantity?

Standard programmes start at 200 pieces per style and colour. We can split sizes across a size set, and for first orders we often accept a mixed-colour run to help you test the market.

Can you match a specific colour?

Yes. Send us a Pantone TCX reference or a physical swatch. We return lab dips for approval and hold bulk shade within the agreed tolerance band before cutting.
