Planning your caps order for Galle
The calendar in Sri Lanka sets the delivery window for caps. Tropical and humid all year, so lightweight cotton sells constantly; the south-west monsoon runs from May to September. Peaks follow April's New Year, Vesak, Christmas and the school terms. 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 3–12 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of caps in Galle include promotional-merchandise companies, sports and event organisers, school and uniform suppliers and retail chains and wholesalers. In Galle, 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.
Fabric, fit and colour choices for Galle
For Galle we suggest planning caps in two drops, one in lighter fabrics and one in heavier ones, so stock matches the weather rather than sitting unsold.
Sizes: Adjustable with strap, snap or buckle closures; fitted sizes S–XL; kids' sizes. Colours: Over 30 stock colours; contrast peaks, panels and under-peak colours.
