How to Start Saree Export Business from Surat Market - Complete Guide

Introduction to Saree Export from Surat Market

Walking through the bustling lanes of Surat's famous saree markets, you'll discover why this city is called India's textile capital. At Ajmera Fashion, we've been helping global clients navigate these vibrant markets since 2008 to build successful export businesses. The secret to Surat's success lies in its perfect combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern manufacturing - producing everything from affordable daily wear to exquisite bridal sarees that appeal to international buyers.

What makes Surat market particularly special for exporters is the direct access to manufacturers. Unlike other textile hubs where you might deal with multiple middlemen, here at Ajmera Fashion and other leading suppliers, you can buy directly from factories. This means better prices, quality control, and the ability to customize designs for your specific markets.

Having exported to over 15 countries from our Surat base, we at Ajmera Fashion can confidently share why this market stands out:

  1. Unbeatable Pricing
    Factory-direct purchases in Surat market are typically 30-50% cheaper than other Indian cities. For example, a printed georgette saree that costs ₹600 in Delhi might be just ₹350-₹400 when buying directly from us at Ajmera Fashion.

    • Lightweight georgettes for daily wear
