Textile trade in Bhiwandi

Bhiwandi, near Mumbai in Maharashtra, is one of India's main powerloom towns. Thousands of looms weave grey cloth, which goes to dyeing, printing and garment units in many states.

The town is also known for its large warehouse areas. Fabric traders use these to store and send goods quickly to markets across the country.

Bhiwandi is a working town, not a shopping street. Most of the business happens in loom sheds, small offices and godowns. A first-time visitor should not expect signboards and display shelves like in a city bazaar.

Go with a contact. A trader, agent or transporter who knows the area will save you a lot of time. Many buyers arrange the visit through WhatsApp or phone first and then meet at the weaver's unit or office.

Buying notes for Bhiwandi

Grey fabric is priced by the metre or by the thaan and changes with yarn rates. Ask for the day's rate and the validity of the quote.

Check the fabric for loom defects, uneven weaving and width. Ask for a sample cut and test it before a bulk order. For larger orders, agree payment terms and delivery dates in writing, even if it is just a message thread.

If you plan to send goods to processing units, confirm shrinkage and finishing details with the processor first.
