Retail, wholesale and made-to-order clothing

Nepal's clothing sector spans retail outlets, boutiques, readymade collections, saree and kurta specialists, pashmina and woollen producers, leather goods and garment manufacturers supplying wholesale or export. A single directory heading covers very different businesses, so establish early whether a listing serves walk-in retail customers, bulk buyers or both.

For retail, confirm size availability, fabric composition, care requirements and the exchange window before purchase, since policies differ substantially between shops. For wholesale or manufacturing enquiries, ask about minimum order quantity, sampling, lead time, fabric sourcing and payment terms rather than assuming a retail-style transaction.
