Frequently asked questions

What MOQ is realistic for activewear from Turkey?

Among listed suppliers publishing an MOQ, 48 sit between 51 and 200 units, 32 at 50 units or fewer and 11 between 201 and 500. Typically expect 150 to 300 pieces per style with colorways pooled; performance knits are dyed to order, and the yarn and fabric mills on this list publish far higher minimums, such as 10,000.

What should I specify and test for activewear?

Specify fiber content and fabric weight, typically polyester or polyamide with elastane for performance pieces and cotton or organic cotton fleece for lifestyle lines, plus stretch and recovery, colorfastness to perspiration and washing, pilling resistance and seam construction such as flatlock. Ask for test reports from an accredited lab on approved bulk fabric, not only on samples.

Which certifications are common in this category?

GOTS leads with 69 holders, followed by OEKO-TEX Standard 100 with 51, Sedex (SMETA) and GRS with 46 each, ISO 9001 with 41 and OCS with 38. GRS supports recycled polyester claims and OEKO-TEX covers restricted substances; request transaction certificates for recycled or organic content and verify certificate numbers on the issuer databases.
