Apex Fashion Wear

What Apex Fashion Wear does

Apex Fashion Wear Limited (AFWL) is a Bangladesh-based B2B garment manufacturer founded in 2018 as the newest venture of Apex Holdings Limited. The company produces 100% export-quality knit garments across six product categories — men's wear, ladies wear, swimwear, baby wear, underwear, and girl's wear — for European and North American fashion brands and retailers. All output is exported; named enterprise customers include HEMA, Lindex, Morrisons, OSTIN, Teddy Smith, Levelwear, ZXY International, and Orchestra. The head office is at 18 Gulshan Avenue, Dhaka, and the company's manufacturing base sits at Chandora, Kaliakoir, Gazipur.

Manufacturing is vertically integrated within the Apex Holdings group. AFWL operates from a 900,000-square-foot facility running 40+ sewing lines with 2,876+ employees, a current capacity of 5 million pieces per year, and a stated scale-up target of 120 million pieces. Backward integration spans circular, warp, and flat knitting, fabric dyeing and finishing (55 metric tons/day), conventional, automated placement, all-over, and digital fabric printing, narrow fabric manufacturing, lingerie accessories, and garment embellishments. Supporting capabilities include an in-house textile testing laboratory accredited by international customers (covering weight, yarn count, spectral color matching, colorfastness, shrinkage, and formaldehyde) and a Design Center, established in 2010 within the group, staffed by textile engineers, fashion designers, and a sample sewing section.

The business generates revenue through quote-based B2B manufacturing contracts, with pricing determined by fabric type, garment complexity, and order volume under multi-year contractual relationships. Go-to-market relies on direct enterprise field sales, sustainability and compliance credentials (GOTS, BSCI, SMETA, Oeko-Tex, GRS, FSC, C-TPAT), and strategic partnerships with ILO (Fair Wage Method), IFC (PaCT program), GIZ (chemical management 3R practice), and Reverse Resources (recycling platform). Environmental infrastructure includes a Central Biological Waste Water Treatment plant with 8,400 cubic meters/day capacity and zero-discharge provisions, plus one of the largest privately-owned water treatment facilities in Bangladesh, positioning compliance and sustainability as core commercial assets rather than consumer-facing channels.
