Why You Can Buy Better Quality Wholesale Clothing from Turkey at Better Prices?

For small and medium-sized businesses, when it comes to buying wholesale clothing, there are two major constraints: quality and cost. However, it is not easy to find high-quality wholesale clothes at reasonable prices. Not easy but not impossible. 
Due to the economic changes in Turkey and China, Turkey has become a perfect hub for wholesale clothing. Let’s see why in Turkey, Europe’s largest textile market, women’s wholesale clothing carries a good quality while keeping the cost low.
Why have prices become so low in Turkey?
The Turkish lira has been crashing against the USD for the past decade. Even though the depreciation diminished the buying power of regular Turkish citizens, it is a good opportunity for small and medium-sized businesses to buy wholesale clothing from Turkey.

This depreciation of currency can be seen in the decreasing prices of domestic goods in Turkey. Especially domestic goods which are produced using raw materials and commodities, such as textile and clothing, are getting affected by this more than the other types of goods like technological products.
In the meantime, in China, textile prices are going up due to government restrictions. As the government limited the work hours, factories lost their labor supply. Time to manufacture and thereby the cost of production increased. In practice, this has immediate consequences. In the last quarter of 2021, a Chinese textile expert admitted this change in his interview “As per new government rules, factories in China cannot work more than 3 days a week. Some of them are permitted to open only 1 or 2 days a week, as on the remaining days there will be power cuts across the entire industrial city. As a result, prices are expected to rise by 30-40 percent in the coming weeks.
In addition, China has the largest economies of scale in the clothing industry. (The economies of scale is a cost advantage that enterprises obtain due to their scale of operation.) However, as the production level falls, economies of scale also fall. Besides, the economics of scale loses its meaning if the goods are not produced in a large amount like basic black t-shirts. Unique products are produced in smaller batches. Therefore, China’s economies of scale advantage does not work in every kind of product. 
Why Turkish clothing has high quality?
We covered the reasons why the prices are so low in Turkey but the cost factor itself is not enough to decide on where to buy wholesale clothing. The quality of clothing is as important as the low cost. In Turkey, quality is a critical factor when it comes to clothing manufacturing because this sector holds a big place in the Turkish economy.
When it comes to exporting women's wholesale clothing, Turkey holds the fourth position after China (first), Vietnam (second), and lastly Bangladesh (third). 
For almost more than a decade, Hugo Boss, Burberry, Donna Karan, and Paul Smith, as well as high-street brands like Next and Marks & Spencer have singled out Turkey when it comes to fashion manufacturing. Because they can reach the items that they want for actual reasonable prices. 
Also, companies such as Inditex holding company of the brands Zara and Pull&Bear, usually prefers mass-producing in Turkey. In other words, we can clearly say that those high-quality, aesthetic brands are proudly carrying the label of “Made in Turkey” on their clothing. 
The fact that these mega-brands, which captured the whole world’s attention, produce their products in Turkey and keep investing in them, they trust the quality standards in Turkey. Day by day, demand for wholesale clothing rises, which draws even more investment from the aforementioned mega-brands. In return, Turkey establishes an environment with flourishing credibility based on mutual trust.
