Textiles & Apparel

Africa’s textile industry is a vibrant mix of tradition and innovation, offering everything from handwoven Kente cloth in Ghana to modern Ankara prints in Nigeria. This category showcases manufacturers and designers who meet AfCFTA’s Rules of Origin criteria, ensuring duty-free access to pan-African markets. Suppliers include Egyptian cotton producers with OEKO-TEX certifications and Ethiopian factories producing sustainable bamboo fabric. Buyers can filter by material type, minimum order quantities (MOQs starting at 500 meters), and lead times, with many listings offering custom dye patterns and bulk discounts for ECOWAS importers. The platform also bridges gaps between artisans and global retailers. For example, Lagos Textiles Ltd. partnered with H&M to supply 50,000 units of ethically produced garments monthly, leveraging AfCFTA’s reduced tariffs. Detailed profiles highlight compliance timelines, sustainability practices (e.g., water-saving dye techniques), and logistics partnerships. A dedicated section for RFPs allows designers to post requests for specific fabrics or designs, fostering collaboration. With AfCFTA’s push for intra-African trade, this category is a gateway to tapping into the $31 billion African apparel market, supported by tools like trend forecasts and duty calculators.
