Planning your t-shirts order for Jos

The calendar in Nigeria sets the delivery window for t-shirts. 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 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 25–40 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 Jos include promotional-merchandise companies, retail chains and fast-fashion brands, wholesalers supplying street markets and event, sports and political organisers. In Jos, 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.

Fabric, fit and colour choices for Jos

Jos is warm for most of the year, so we steer buyers of t-shirts towards the lighter end of the range: 100% combed cotton single jersey 160–200 GSM or cotton-polyester blends 150–180 GSM. Heavier blends feel uncomfortable in the heat and slow sell-through in the shops.

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.
