Shirts assortment guide for Thailand
Importers serve a mix of online sellers, department stores and market retailers, and often order smaller quantities of many styles to refresh ranges quickly. Short-sleeve and lightweight cotton shirts in plain and small-check patterns move fastest in warm countries.
Retail peaks around the lunar new year, mid-year sales and the year-end festive period. Sizes run smaller than in Europe or the Gulf, so we match the size chart to the local fit before production.
shirts for Thailand ships from Mundra or Kandla and discharges at Laem Chabang, about 10–20 days at sea. A mixed container lets you take several garment lines and footwear together and share one set of export documents.
