Wholesale Jersey Fabric
for Greece from Turkey

In short: Altunkaya Tekstil produces single jersey in combed cotton at 150-180 g/m², a 200 g/m² premium weight, and a stretch version with 8% elastane in Zeytinburnu, Istanbul, and exports to Greece with a minimum order of 50 kg per colour. Stock colours are dispatched in 2-5 working days; custom Pantone or RAL dyeing takes 10-15 working days. Customs status: EU-Turkey customs union — no duty with a valid A.TR movement certificate. Typical transit: 2-3 working days via Thessaloniki. Main applications: t-shirts, underwear, babywear and promotional textiles.

Greece is the closest EU market to Istanbul, and the numbers make the point better than any argument: two to three days by road, against four to five weeks for a container from Asia. For a Greek manufacturer or brand this changes what is operationally possible — a colour that sells out in March can be reordered and cut before the season ends, and sampling rounds take days instead of weeks. The Greek garment industry is concentrated around Thessaloniki and Kilkis, close enough to the border that the logistics are effectively domestic.

Greek textile activity is concentrated around Thessaloniki and Kilkis, Athens and Larissa. We ship to Greece from Istanbul on road freight from istanbul — the shortest overland route to any eu member state, and under the EU-Turkey customs union industrial goods move without customs duty provided a valid A.TR certificate accompanies the shipment.
