Aslan Apparel Sourcing

Our office, Aslan Apparel Sourcing, is located at 109/10a Shashtri Street in Annuparpalayam. It’s a busy part of the city where everyone seems to be doing something related to the clothing trade. We aren't actually making the clothes ourselves here. Instead, we spend our time finding the right factories for people who need garments made. It involves a lot of walking around and visiting different units to see what they are capable of doing. My desk is usually covered in fabric swatches, colorful buttons, and half-finished samples that didn't quite make the cut for one reason or another. It’s a lot of talking on the phone and arguing about the price and the quality of the stitching. Sometimes a factory promises one thing and delivers another, which makes my life very difficult. I’ve lived in this area my whole life, so I know who does good work and who tends to cut corners when things get busy. We don’t have a polished corporate image or any fancy brochures. It’s just a small room with a few chairs and a lot of samples hanging on the walls. Some days I'm out in the heat all afternoon checking on production lines. It’s not a glamorous job, but it’s necessary for people who don’t know their way around the local trade. We just try to make sure things get done properly and on time, even when the schedules are tight and everyone is stressed.
