Planning your caps order for Bradford

A caps order for Bradford should be planned backwards from the selling season. Four seasons, with autumn-winter ranges ordered by April and spring-summer by October; peaks include Eid, Diwali, Black Friday, Christmas and back-to-school. For caps specifically, caps sell strongly in summer, at sports events and in promotional campaigns; winter beanies are ordered by July for the northern autumn. Our lead time is 25–40 days, plus sea transit of about 20–30 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.

Typical buyers of caps in Bradford include promotional-merchandise companies, sports and event organisers, school and uniform suppliers and retail chains and wholesalers. In Bradford, they usually order 1,000–3,000 pieces per design; 500 pieces for stock colours with simple embroidery and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.
