Frequently asked questions

What MOQ should I expect from a Turkish T-shirt manufacturer?

Among listed suppliers that publish an MOQ, 55 sit between 51 and 200 units, 40 at 50 units or fewer and 23 between 201 and 500, so 100 to 300 pieces per style is a realistic opening position. MOQs are typically set per style with colors pooled, and runs below the minimum usually carry a higher unit price.

Which certifications matter for T-shirts from Turkey?

GOTS is the most common in this category with 94 holders, followed by Sedex (SMETA) and OCS with 70 each, RCS with 63, GRS with 62 and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 with 57. For organic or recycled claims, ask for the transaction certificate covering your order, not only the factory's scope certificate, and check audit dates for Sedex or BSCI.

How long do lead times run and how do goods reach Europe?

Published lead times on this list range from 7 to 21 days at the short end to 60 days or more for knit programs. Typically allow 30 to 60 days after sample approval for a private-label run. Road freight from Istanbul reaches Western Europe in five to ten days, and goods enter the EU duty free with an A.TR certificate under the Customs Union.

Method: entries are the top-scoring published profiles for this category and country in SupplySpark's database when the list was last updated; ranking cannot be bought. Facts come from each supplier's public profile and evidence on file; confirm MOQs, lead times and certifications directly with the factory before ordering.
