Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Everything international fashion brands, retail buyers, and sourcing managers need to know about manufacturing with Mayser Textile.

What are your Minimum Order Quantities (MOQs)?

Our standard production MOQ is typically 500 pieces per style/colorway for custom-woven fabrics. However, by leveraging our extensive library of premium running-stock Turkish cotton fabrics, we can accommodate emerging fashion labels with MOQs as low as 300 pieces per colorway. For large volume retail programs, our monthly capacity exceeds 400,000 units.

What are your sample and bulk production lead times?

Pre-production (PP) samples are typically developed and dispatched within 7 to 10 business days after tech pack and fabric sign-off. Bulk production lead times range from 3 to 5 weeks depending on order volume and whether fabrics are sourced from running stock or custom-milled.

Do European buyers pay import duty on garments from Turkey?

No. Under the European Union – Turkey Customs Union agreement, industrial goods accompanied by an official A.TR Movement Certificate enter the EU completely duty-free (0% tariff). This delivers an instant 12% cost advantage compared to importing from China or Bangladesh.

What shipping Incoterms do you offer?

We accommodate all standard Incoterms including FOB (Istanbul or Mersin Port), EXW (Ex Works), and DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) directly to your regional European or UK warehouse address with all customs formalities handled.

Can you manufacture shirts from my own custom tech pack and measurements?

Yes, absolutely. We specialize in OEM contract manufacturing. You provide your specification sheets, CAD files, or physical reference garments, and our modelers reproduce your fit, collar styles, and seam details with millimeter precision.

Can Mayser Textile provide custom branding, neck labels, and packaging?

Yes. We offer turnkey private labeling including damask woven neck labels, satin wash-care labels, branded mother-of-pearl buttons, custom hangtags, tissue wrapping, and certified biodegradable polybags.

What testing protocols do you carry out on fabrics?

Our in-house testing laboratory conducts wash color fastness (ISO 105-C06), crocking rub fastness (ISO 105-X12), dimensional stability shrinkage tests, and nickel-free hardware verification to ensure compliance with European REACH and OEKO-TEX standards.

Can I visit the factory before placing an order?

We warmly welcome client visits. You can meet our international merchandisers at our Istanbul Showroom in Güneşli / Bağcılar or arrange a guided technical tour of our 7,200 m² production facilities in Birecik. We also conduct live video walkthroughs for overseas teams.
