Serving importers, wholesalers and fashion labels with dependable cardigan manufacturing and export services since day one.
Cardigans Import Export is a professionally managed knitwear sourcing and export house headquartered in Farrukhabad, Uttar Pradesh, India — a city celebrated for generations of textile craftsmanship and skilled hand-knitting talent. What began as a small family-run knitting unit has evolved into a full-service import-export operation that supplies premium cardigans to buyers in Europe, North America, the Middle East, Africa and Australia. Our journey has always been guided by a simple belief: warmth is a feeling, and every garment we ship should carry that feeling across borders.
Our strength lies in a vertically integrated production model. We work directly with spinning mills for wool, acrylic, viscose and cashmere-blend yarns, then move the material through computerised flat-knitting machines, linking units, stitching floors and finishing departments. This end-to-end control lets us guarantee consistent gauge, accurate sizing and repeatable colour matching across every reorder — a level of reliability that importers rarely find when dealing with fragmented vendor chains.
Quality is not a final inspection at our facility; it is a discipline embedded at every stage. Yarn is tested for shrinkage and colour fastness before knitting, panels are measured against approved tech packs, and finished cardigans pass a multi-point audit covering needle damage, seam strength, button attachment, labelling accuracy and packing integrity. Our in-house QA team documents every batch, so international buyers receive complete traceability along with their consignment.
From Farrukhabad, we manage the entire export lifecycle — sampling and fit approval, bulk production scheduling, buyer-specific labelling and hangtag application, cartonisation, and coordination with freight forwarders through Delhi, Mumbai and Mundra ports. Whether you need a 500-piece trial run for a boutique chain or a full 40-foot container for a department store, our merchandising desk keeps you informed with regular production photographs and milestone updates.
Beyond manufacturing, we position ourselves as a long-term growth partner. We advise clients on seasonal trend directions, suggest cost-effective yarn substitutions, help optimise order quantities and offer flexible payment and shipping terms for repeat customers. That consultative approach — combined with ethical labour practices, timely delivery and honest communication — is why buyers return to Cardigans Import Export season after season. If you are looking for a cardigan supplier in India who treats your brand like their own, our Farrukhabad team is ready to work with you.
Nine focused service verticals that cover everything from yarn selection to final delivery at your warehouse.
Our flagship export line features medium and heavy-gauge woolen cardigans knitted from responsibly sourced merino and lambswool blends. Each style is developed from buyer tech packs or our own seasonal design library, then finished with reinforced ribbing, anti-pilling treatment and soft-hand washes that keep the garment comfortable through repeated winter wear.
Ideal for European and North American winter collections, these cardigans are available in button-front, zip-front and open-front silhouettes with custom colour cards. Minimum order quantities start at 300 pieces per colourway, with sampling completed in 7–10 working days and bulk dispatch within 45 days of approval.

Women's knitwear is the fastest-moving category in our Farrukhabad facility. We produce longline cardigans, cropped shrugs, cable-knit statement pieces, belt-tie styles and embroidered festive cardigans using fine-gauge viscose, acrylic and cotton-blend yarns that drape beautifully while retaining shape.
Our design team translates runway and retail trends into commercially viable patterns, adding lace trims, pearl buttons, patch pockets and tonal embroidery as required. Buyers receive digital flats, size charts and lab-dip approvals before bulk knitting begins, ensuring the final product matches the approved concept exactly.

Built for durability and timeless styling, our men's range covers shawl-collar cardigans, V-neck button fronts, quarter-zip knits and textured fisherman-rib designs. We use heavier gauges and tightly twisted yarns so the garment holds its structure through daily wear and repeated laundering.
Sizing is graded from S to 4XL with optional tall fits, and every style can be produced with branded neck labels, woven tags and custom packaging. This line is particularly popular with menswear retailers, uniform suppliers and corporate gifting buyers across the Gulf and African markets.

For luxury retail buyers, we import and process fine cashmere and cashmere-blend yarns to create ultra-soft, lightweight cardigans with a premium hand feel. Blends are typically 30% cashmere with wool or modal, balancing luxury, durability and price point for high-street premium labels.
These garments receive special attention during finishing — gentle washing, precise blocking and hand-checked trims — because luxury buyers expect flawless detailing. Documentation for yarn origin and composition is provided on request to support your own label's sourcing transparency claims.

Our wholesale division supports domestic distributors, multi-brand outlets and online sellers who need fast replenishment in large quantities. Ready stock is maintained across best-selling plain and cable-knit styles in neutral and seasonal colourways, allowing dispatch within 72 hours of order confirmation.
Wholesale pricing is tiered by quantity, and registered distributors receive priority allocation during peak winter months. We also handle mixed-carton packing so retailers can order a spread of sizes and colours without committing to full cartons of a single variant.

Turn your brand into a knitwear label with our complete private-label programme. We produce custom woven neck labels, printed care labels, branded hangtags, polybags and cartons — all matched to your brand guidelines and applied on our own production floor to eliminate third-party handling errors.
Optional branding includes embroidered chest logos, jacquard-knitted brand motifs within the fabric, custom buttons with debossed logos and personalised size stickers. Small brands can start with just 200 pieces per style, making private label accessible without heavy inventory risk.

Acrylic knitwear remains the most cost-effective way to build a high-volume winter collection without compromising on softness or colour vibrancy. Our acrylic range includes brushed fleece-feel cardigans, marled yarn styles, ombre gradients and printed panel designs suited to value retail and e-commerce channels.
Advanced anti-static and anti-pilling finishes keep the garments looking fresh after multiple washes — a key requirement for online sellers who face high return rates when fabric quality disappoints. Bulk pricing is available from 500 pieces per design.

Childrenswear demands extra care, and our kids' cardigan line is produced with hypoallergenic, skin-friendly yarns, flat-lock seams and nickel-free buttons that meet international safety norms. Styles include hooded knits, character-appliqué cardigans, school-uniform cardigans and matching sibling sets.
We follow age-wise sizing standards for UK, EU and US markets and provide relevant test reports on request. This category is ideal for supermarket chains, kidswear boutiques and gifting brands looking for reliable, compliant supply from India.

Getting the garment made is only half the job — getting it delivered smoothly is the other half. Our export desk manages commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin, GSP documentation and buyer-specific compliance paperwork, coordinating with CHAs and freight forwarders for sea and air shipments.
We ship FOB, CIF and DDP depending on your preference, and provide real-time consignment tracking along with pre-shipment sample approvals. Cartons are export-grade, moisture-protected and barcode-labelled so your warehouse team can receive the stock without rework.

Feedback from importers, distributors and retail partners who source cardigans from our Farrukhabad unit.
Rajesh Verma
"We have been sourcing woolen cardigans from this Farrukhabad unit for three winters now. Colour consistency between reorders is genuinely impressive and their documentation is always ready before the vessel cuts off."
Priya Sharma
"Their private label service saved me months of running around. Labels, hangtags and packaging all arrived exactly to my brand guidelines, and the ladies' designer cardigans sold out within six weeks."
Anjali Nair
"Sampling was quick and they actually listened to our fit corrections instead of repeating the same pattern. The acrylic winter range has been our best-selling value category two seasons running."
Vikram Singh
"Bulk wholesale orders are dispatched fast and mixed-carton packing means my retailers can order a spread of sizes without dead stock. Pricing is transparent with no hidden charges at dispatch."
Meera Iyer
"Return rates dropped noticeably after we switched to their anti-pilling acrylic cardigans. Product photos they shared for listings were accurate, which built customer trust straight away."
Arjun Mehta
"Their cashmere-blend cardigans sit comfortably in our premium range. Communication across time zones was smooth and the team proactively flagged a yarn delay well before it affected our launch date."
Our standard minimum is 300 pieces per colourway per style for export orders, while domestic wholesale can start from 100 pieces. For first-time buyers we also accommodate smaller trial orders of 150 pieces so you can evaluate our quality before scaling up.
