Who buys in Nelson and what sells with caps
Nelson is served through Wellington, with 1 day by road to the city; its strongest garment sectors are retail chains & stores and wholesale & trading houses.
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 Nelson buyers add it to the same container.
T-Shirts: T-shirts are the highest-volume garment: bought as retail basics, promotional merchandise and event wear, in plain and printed styles. Many Nelson buyers add it to the same container.
Leggings: Leggings are among the highest-volume women's garments, bought by wholesalers and retailers in dozens of colours and reordered constantly. Many Nelson buyers add it to the same container.
Kidswear: Children outgrow clothes quickly, so kidswear is replaced every season, with back-to-school and festive peaks. Many Nelson buyers add it to the same container.
Planning your caps order for Nelson
A caps order for Nelson should be planned backwards from the selling season. Seasons are reversed; winter lines are ordered by December; peaks include Christmas, summer holidays and Matariki. 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 20–35 days, so we advise confirming orders early enough to land the goods before the peak rather than during it.
Typical buyers of caps in Nelson include promotional-merchandise companies, sports and event organisers, school and uniform suppliers and retail chains and wholesalers. In Nelson, 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 Nelson
New Zealand has distinct seasons, so we split caps into two ranges: lighter fabrics such as cotton twill 240–280 GSM for spring and summer, and heavier options such as acrylic knit for beanies for autumn and winter.
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.
