Frequently asked questions
What MOQs should I expect from Turkish cardigan manufacturers?
MOQs in Turkey's cardigan segment are relatively accessible: among listed suppliers publishing one, 13 accept 50 units or fewer, 11 sit between 51 and 200 units, and nine between 201 and 500. Integrated flat-knit factories with larger machine parks often quote per style and season, so confirm directly.
How long are lead times for knitwear production in Turkey?
Lead times vary with gauge, yarn availability and season. Published figures among listed cardigan suppliers range from around 20 days for simpler programs to 60–120 days for fully developed flat-knit collections. Sampling and yarn sourcing typically add time before bulk, so plan seasonal orders early.
Which certifications matter when sourcing cardigans from Turkey?
Sedex (SMETA) is the most common credential among listed suppliers (25), followed by GOTS (24) for organic fibers and OCS, GRS and RCS (17–18 each) for content and recycled-material claims. ISO 9001 (15) signals quality management. Request current certificates and check their scope with the factory.
