Supplying Europe
Europe is not one market, and treating it as one is the mistake most suppliers make. A boutique in Marseille and an online store in Stockholm are buying for different climates, different seasons of demand and different price expectations — and increasingly they are buying from brands that did not exist three years ago.
What they have in common is the practical problem: most abaya production sits at minimums a European independent cannot justify, in a market where stock that does not sell is capital sitting in a stockroom. Eight pieces per design exists for exactly that constraint. It lets a buyer carry four designs instead of committing to one.
Fabric is where European orders differ most from Gulf ones. Northern European winters mean heavier crêpe and structured nida carry most of the year, with linen a genuinely seasonal buy. Southern Europe is closer to Gulf conditions and sells linen and lighter weights for far longer. We produce the same design across a tier range for this reason — the design that works in Málaga is often the same design in a different cloth in Malmö.
Import duties and taxes depend on the destination country and are the buyer's to settle. We do not quote rates, because they change and they vary by product classification. Each country page links to that country's official customs authority, and we will give you a landed-cost quote for your order.
