Stocking a boutique: how to buy wholesale clothing wisely

Start with sellers, not favourites

Your first wholesale order should be the items that move everywhere: plain tees in core colours, a hoodie, a chino, a simple dress. Trend pieces come later once you know your customers.

Understand the size curve

A good size curve for adult basics is roughly 1 S : 2 M : 2 L : 1 XL. Our wholesale catalog lets you set quantities per size and colour so you can match the curve to your customers rather than buying a fixed assortment.

Minimum order quantities and tiers

Each wholesale product shows its minimum order quantity (MOQ) and price breaks. The unit price drops at each tier, so it is often worth adding a few more pieces to reach the next band. Mixed sizes and colours of the same product count towards the same tier.

Payment and collection

Approved wholesale accounts can pay by bank transfer or M-Pesa and collect from our Nairobi store, or we can arrange courier delivery upcountry. Keep your receipts: every order has a number and a downloadable summary.

Apply for an account

Create an account, open the Wholesale page and submit your business details. We review applications within two working days and will call to confirm.
