40+ companies in Thailand importing garments and apparel are currently in EximHub's buyer database. Each record is tied to real import shipment activity — knitted and woven apparel, kidswear, and private-label clothing — and carries a verified procurement contact you can reveal one credit at a time.
What these buyers look like
Looking at the 10 Thailand importers with the strongest contact data: buyer profiles include textile mill, clothing supplier, textiles & apparel. Full activity, HS codes and contacts are on each company's record.
What you get for Thailand garment buyers
- The importing company — name, city, and industry, filtered to Thailand.
- Trade activity — products shipped, HS chapters 61–62 codes, approximate volumes and recency.
- A named contact — the procurement or purchasing person, with a verified email or phone.
How to work this list
A list of importers is the start, not the finish. Reach the named buyer directly, open with one specific true line about their business, keep the first email short, and follow up three or four times on the same thread. The full method — deliverability, the follow-up sequence, subject lines, and the intro call — is in how to find buyers for export. For Thailand specifically, note the local negotiation style covered in negotiating with buyers by market.
Get the right paperwork ready
Buyers in Thailand that source under a trade agreement with India will ask for a preferential certificate of origin to claim lower import duty. Quote on a clear Incoterm — see Incoterms 2020 explained — and agree a payment method that matches how well you know the buyer.
Compliance and buyer expectations in Thailand
Thailand's TISI (Thai Industrial Standards Institute) mark is required for many regulated categories before customs clearance, and buyers often act as regional distributors re-selling across the wider Mekong/ASEAN market rather than for domestic use alone. Confirm which certifications the specific buyer needs before quoting, as requirements vary by product.
Where garment exporters actually source from in India
Tiruppur and Bengaluru lead knitwear and casualwear manufacturing, Delhi-NCR and Ludhiana cover woven garments and winterwear, and Mumbai has strength in women's fashion categories. Buyers typically want a tech-pack-matched sample, correct size-chart labelling for the destination market, and compliance documentation (a social-compliance audit is often requested by larger retail buyers).
Why exporters use shipment data instead of a directory
A directory listing tells you a company exists; it does not tell you whether they actually import garments and apparel, how recently, or at what volume. Customs shipment records answer all three — which is why the 40+ companies above are filtered to documented recent import activity in HS chapters 61–62, not a self-submitted profile. Combined with a named, verified procurement contact instead of a general inbox, the practical difference shows up in reply rates: a message that references real, specific import activity reads as informed outreach, not a cold guess.
