Who buys caps in Kuwait
Kuwait's economy is driven by oil production and refining around Ahmadi, Shuaiba and Al Zour, and by state spending on housing, utilities and infrastructure. Shuwaikh and Shuaiba ports handle most imports.
Shops, market traders and school suppliers refill denim, shirts, kidswear, caps and footwear every season, so importers buy ready-made assortments in mixed containers rather than single styles.
