Gallant International

What Gallant International does

Gallant International Inc. is a privately held, California-incorporated private-label manufacturer founded in 2009 and headquartered in Mission Viejo, Orange County, that designs and produces custom organic and regenerative organic cotton apparel, bags, and accessories (tote bags, cosmetic and muslin bags, wine and produce bags, backpacks, duffles, aprons, tea towels, T-shirts, hoodies, and woven garments). Manufacturing is executed in India through partner factories, with US-based sample warehousing and global shipping; the company states production capacity of up to 5 million pieces per year and MOQs ranging from 250 to 5,000 units depending on product and color.

The company's core technology centers on full-package private-label customization, including custom Pantone color matching, screen printing, digital printing, and embroidery using GOTS and OEKO-TEX certified low-impact water-based inks, supported by in-house QC covering fabric GSM, dye, print, embroidery, stitching, shrinkage, and packing. Its supply chain is differentiated by what it describes as one of the world's largest Regenerative Organic Certified (ROC) cotton projects, with direct relationships to 1,100+ smallholder farmers in India (700+ actively farming 3,500 acres across two states), non-GM seed provision, training, certification-fee coverage, and a guaranteed purchase commitment. A 20-person field team supports the farmer transition program, and India's first Regenerative Organic Research, Education, and Training Center was launched jointly with the Rodale Institute and the University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad, staffed with eight interdisciplinary scientists.

Gallant monetizes through a B2B wholesale model sold via direct sales (phone, email, website inquiry) to enterprise clients across beauty, tech, food, retail, promotion, and non-profit sectors, with pricing quote-based (not publicly disclosed) and standard 50% advance / 50% on-delivery terms. Revenue is diversified across 500+ customers, including Whole Foods Market, Davines, Apple, Chase, Organic Night Out, and the United Nations. The company holds a stacked certification portfolio (B Corp, ROC Bronze, GOTS, Fair Trade USA, Fairtrade International, SA 8000, Fair Wear, Sedex, Amfori BSCI, OEKO-TEX, Carbon Neutral via Gold Standard/CDM) and operates a Give Back Program in partnership with Feeding America. In October 2025, Gallant launched Vottera, a wholly-owned regenerative organic certified apparel sub-brand, marking its first move into branded (rather than private-label) revenue capture.
