Planning your polo t-shirts order for Pretoria
Timing decides whether polo t-shirts sell at full price or at a discount in Pretoria. Seasons are reversed from Europe, with winter from June to August; winter lines are ordered by December and summer lines by June. School uniforms peak in January. 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 18–28 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 Pretoria include corporate-uniform suppliers, golf, sports and school clubs, hospitality groups and security companies and retailers and wholesale distributors. In Pretoria, 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 Pretoria

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.
