Quick answer

Hurain Garments Exporter (Hurain Engitech & Trade, Palanpur), founded in 2010 by Khalil Syed, is a trading and export company that supplies kidswear, made by partner factories, to buyers in Lagos, Nigeria.

Minimum order is 500 pieces per design, or a half or full container; payment is 50% in advance, 50% before dispatch.
Why Lagos needs kidswear
Lagos is one of Nigeria's gateway ports, so containers from India land close to buyers. Retail buyers in Lagos order shirts, T-shirts, jeans and kidswear each season. Wholesale markets in Lagos buy mixed containers of basics, kidswear and jeans. Children outgrow clothes quickly, so kidswear is replaced every season, with back-to-school and festive peaks.
Nigeria is Africa's largest consumer market and a fashion-led market of over 200 million people, with Lagos, Onitsha and Kano feeding markets across West Africa and the Sahel.
Retail chains & stores in Lagos
Stores in Lagos 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.
In Lagos, department stores and shopping-mall brands buy kidswear from us mainly for children's retailers and wholesalers and schools, colleges and education authorities.

Lagos: the market for kidswear
Lagos is one of Nigeria's gateway ports, so containers from India land close to buyers. Retail buyers in Lagos order shirts, T-shirts, jeans and kidswear each season. Wholesale markets in Lagos buy mixed containers of basics, kidswear and jeans.
Children outgrow clothes quickly, so kidswear is replaced every season, with back-to-school and festive peaks. In Lagos that demand comes mainly from retail chains & stores, wholesale & trading houses and online marketplaces & d2c brands.
Retailers in Lagos restock shirts, T-shirts, jeans, kidswear and seasonal fashion every few weeks, and want private-label labelling, hang tags and barcodes applied at source so garments go straight onto the shop floor.
Wholesalers in Lagos 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.
E-commerce brands in Lagos reorder best-sellers in small lots, so short lead times, clear MOQs and reliable colour matching matter more than the lowest unit price.
Who buys in Lagos and what sells with kidswear
Lagos is served through Apapa / Tin Can; its strongest garment sectors are retail chains & stores, wholesale & trading houses, workwear & safety clothing and schools, institutions & corporate uniforms. Kidswear also finds buyers in schools, institutions & corporate uniforms.
T-Shirts: T-shirts are the highest-volume garment: bought as retail basics, promotional merchandise and event wear, in plain and printed styles. Many Lagos buyers add it to the same container.
Track Pants & Shorts: Track pants and shorts serve sport, home and travel, and are easy for wholesalers to sell because they fit many body sizes. Many Lagos buyers add it to the same container.
Trousers & Cargo Pants: Chinos and cargo pants bridge work and weekend wear, and utility versions are bought by contractors and uniform suppliers. Many Lagos buyers add it to the same container.
Jeans: Denim is the garment that sells in every market: jeans are bought for every season, and retailers and wholesalers reorder washes and fits as sizes sell through. Many Lagos buyers add it to the same container.
Planning your kidswear order for Lagos
Timing decides whether kidswear sell at full price or at a discount in Lagos. Hot and humid for much of the year, with rains from April to October. Demand peaks before Christmas, Easter, Eid and the wedding season (November to February), so orders are placed 3–4 months ahead. For kidswear specifically, back-to-school in July–September in the northern hemisphere and January–February in the southern; festive and winter lines are ordered 4–5 months ahead. Our lead time is 35–50 days from approved sample, plus sea transit of about 25–40 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of kidswear in Lagos include children's boutiques, wholesalers supplying markets and chains, online baby and kids stores and schools and charities buying bulk clothing. In Lagos, they usually order 500–1,000 pieces per design; sets can be mixed by size within a design 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 Lagos
Lagos is warm for most of the year, so we steer buyers of kidswear towards the lighter end of the range: 100% combed cotton single jersey 140–180 GSM or cotton interlock and rib for baby wear. Heavier blends feel uncomfortable in the heat and slow sell-through in the shops.
Sizes: Newborn–24 months, 2–14 years; size by age and height with a graded spec chart. Colours: Bright and pastel palettes; gender-neutral colourways; character-free prints unless licensed.
Buyer's checklist for ordering kidswear for Lagos
- Agree age-range and height-based size chart
- Confirm safety rules for your market
- Approve fabric hand-feel and shrinkage
- Choose print and applique details
- Set size ratio by age band
- Decide private-label packaging
- Check the import and labelling rules for Nigeria: importers use Form M through an authorised bank before shipping, and duties and levies apply; used clothing is prohibited. Confirm current rules with your bank and clearing agent.
- Agree Incoterms (FOB, CFR or CIF Apapa) and the payment terms: 50% advance with order confirmation and 50% before dispatch against export documents; L/C at sight can be discussed for larger orders.
How we ship kidswear to Lagos
