Why Kericho needs polo t-shirts
Kericho sits 2–3 days by road inland from Mombasa, where cargo from India is cleared. Traders in Kericho buy garments by the carton and the container for resale across the region. Malls, chains and independent shops in Kericho restock with imported fashion basics. Polos are the world's most-ordered uniform top: hotels, security firms, schools and corporates reorder them for staff and renew them every year.
Kenya is East Africa's main import gateway, with Mombasa clearing cargo for Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan and eastern DR Congo, and Nairobi's wholesale districts supplying shops across the region.

Planning your polo t-shirts order for Kericho
A polo t-shirts order for Kericho should be planned backwards from the selling season. Two rainy seasons and a mild climate allow year-round sales, with hoodies and jackets in cooler months. Demand peaks at back-to-school in January, May and August, plus Easter, Christmas and wedding seasons. For polo t-shirts specifically, polos sell all year as uniforms and in summer as retail wear; golf-season, school-term and corporate-year starts drive reorders. Our lead time is 30–40 days including embroidery; 20 days on repeat orders, plus sea transit of about 12–22 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of polo t-shirts in Kericho include corporate-uniform suppliers, golf, sports and school clubs, hospitality groups and security companies and retailers and wholesale distributors. In Kericho, they usually order 500–1,000 pieces per colour for stock fabrics; custom shades need about 1,500 pieces and reorder the styles that sell through, so we keep fabric, size ratios and labels on file for repeat shipments.
Fabric, fit and colour choices for Kericho
Kericho is warm for most of the year, so we steer buyers of polo t-shirts towards the lighter end of the range: 100% cotton pique 180–220 GSM or cotton-polyester pique 200–230 GSM. Heavier blends feel uncomfortable in the heat and slow sell-through in the shops.
Sizes: S–5XL; women's XS–2XL; kids 4–16 years; relaxed and slim blocks. Colours: Over 30 stock colours, including navy, white, black, red, royal and bottle green; custom dyeing for corporate shades.
