Garment wholesalers · Logistics
Make your catalogue the one a retailer opens before choosing the season's stock.
A retailer in a small town shares a WhatsApp group with four garment wholesalers. Every morning each of them posts new designs with a set price and sizes. The retailer scrolls, taps two photos, and writes 'ratio?' Whoever replies first with the size ratio and the minimum order takes the booking.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

In one paragraph
A garment wholesaler sells ready-made clothing in sets or lots to retail shops, boutiques and resellers. Marketing gets your designs in front of shopkeepers choosing the season's range. Sales turns catalogue messages into confirmed orders and repeat buying. GullySales prepares the catalogue format and the buyer register behind it.
The wholesaler's day goes in photographing, posting and answering the same four questions. The orders that matter most are repeat ones from shops that sold through last season's stock, yet the list of those shops sits in one salesman's phone.

How buyers decide
How garment wholesalers are chosen.
Retailers buy garments by design and set, and they decide fast. They look at the photo, the price per piece, the size ratio and the minimum quantity, then ask what sold well for others. A wholesaler whose last range sold in the shop earns the next booking, and one whose sizes ran small is dropped.
Resellers on Instagram and marketplaces buy differently, in small mixed lots with fast dispatch. They compare several wholesalers on rate and on how the parcel is packed, and they leave if returns are argued about.
The problem
What usually goes wrong for garment wholesalers.
What owners tell us on the first call, in their words.
“Every shop is in a different WhatsApp group”
We post the same designs again and again, and we cannot tell which shop looked, replied or ordered.
“Shops order once for a season and vanish”
After the first booking nobody calls to ask how the stock sold or what they need next.
“Returns and size complaints turn into arguments”
A shopkeeper says the sizes ran small, we say they were as shown, and the account is lost over a few pieces.
“Reseller orders are small and endless”
Instagram and Meesho sellers ask for photos, rates and combinations, and the time spent is large against the order value.
“Credit goes out and comes back slowly”
Payments from shops in other towns drift, and we hold off dispatching to good shops because we are chasing the bad ones.
What we do
What we do for garment wholesalers.
Everything included for garment wholesalers.
A seasonal catalogue system
Catalogues for each season arranged by category, with photos, sets, ratios, minimum order and a booking button.
A shop and reseller register
Each buyer is listed with town, shop type, last booking, credit position and who is meant to call next.
A post-season call sheet
A sheet for calling each shop after a season, asking what sold and noting the sizes and colours that moved.
A returns record
A simple form that collects the design, the size, the reason and a photo, with a rule for who decides.
Pages for the market you sell from
A Google Business Profile and category pages that name your market lane or building, for the shopkeeper who types 'kurti wholesaler' with a town name.
How the result is measured
- Bookings by season and by shop
- Shops that booked again after last season's range
- Designs booked out of designs posted
- Time taken to answer a ratio or minimum-order query
- Size complaints and returns, counted by reason
- Money collected from out-of-town shops against goods dispatched
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Beyond search
Where we reach buyers of garment wholesalers, beyond Google.
Search matters, but it is rarely the only way this industry's buyers find a supplier.
Shops in the towns your salesmen already visit
Clothing shops listed by town and type, starting with the ones that bought once and went quiet. Calls and visits are planned around the day the town's market is busy, not the day it is shut.
Boutiques and online resellers
Boutiques and resellers who post their stock on Instagram are found from their own pages and sent a short introduction with one bundle, a price and a minimum.
Uniform and workwear buyers
Schools, factories and security firms that need uniforms in numbers get a quote format and a sample request.
Sub-wholesalers in smaller towns
Stockists who supply shops you cannot visit yourself are listed with their terms and the shops they cover.

Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
- You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
- You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
GullySales builds every engagement from three pieces of sales work. This page is not one of them, but the same three steps apply to the business behind it.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
