Why Montreal needs t-shirts

Canada has a high-income market with large South Asian, African and Caribbean communities, and Toronto, Vancouver and Montréal import for national distribution.

Montreal: the market for t-shirts
Montreal is a port city where cargo from India arrives directly. Construction sites, factories and industrial plants around Montreal need coveralls, hi-vis and work shirts. Institutional buyers in Montreal tender for school and corporate uniforms.
T-shirts are the highest-volume garment: bought as retail basics, promotional merchandise and event wear, in plain and printed styles. In Montreal that demand comes mainly from wholesale & trading houses, schools, institutions & corporate uniforms and retail chains & stores.
Wholesalers in Montreal buy garments by the carton and the container, favouring fast-moving sizes and colours of T-shirts, jeans, leggings and kidswear. Mixed-style containers let them test new lines without carrying a large stock of any one design.
Institutional buyers in Montreal tender for uniforms months before term or contract start. We plan production backwards from the delivery date and keep a buffer for shipping and port delays.
Stores in Montreal plan ranges two seasons ahead. We sample early, grade carefully and photograph each style, so buyers can commit before the season and receive goods before the first campaign.

Planning your t-shirts order for Montreal
Timing decides whether t-shirts sell at full price or at a discount in Montreal. Cold winters, so fleece and knitwear sell from September to March; peaks include Black Friday, Diwali, Eid and back-to-school. For t-shirts specifically, t-shirts sell round the year in warm markets and for spring-summer in cooler ones; promotional and event T-shirts spike before elections, tournaments and festivals. Our lead time is 30–45 days including dyeing and print approval; 20–25 days on stock knit fabric, 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 t-shirts in Montreal include promotional-merchandise companies, retail chains and fast-fashion brands, wholesalers supplying street markets and event, sports and political organisers. In Montreal, they usually order 1,000–2,000 pieces per colour and style, falling to 500 pieces for stock colours with simple prints and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.

Sizes: S–3XL unisex and men's; women's XS–XL fitted; kids 2–14 years. Colours: Over 40 stock colours in reactive dye; Pantone matching available on bulk.
