Our Heritage

Rooted in Narowal. Trading from Lahore.

I — The Loom

It began in Narowal, Punjab. Our grandfather operated power looms — not as a trade, but as a craft. Fabric was not a commodity. It was something made, thread by thread, with patience and skill.

II — The Market

Our uncle moved the family into cloth trading at Azam Cloth Market, Lahore — one of South Asia's great textile bazaars. Here, value was learned differently. Not from production, but from the people who bought and sold it every day.

III — A Clothing Business Built on Both

Our father combined both strands — manufacturing knowledge from Narowal, trading expertise from Lahore — into a successful clothing business. Understanding fabric from its production. Understanding value from the market. Relationships as the foundation of every trade.

IV — From Narowal to the World

Today, Boonaj carries that heritage globally — managing apparel production across five manufacturing countries for international brands. European representation available in Germany for direct meetings. The scale has changed. The values have not.

Why Work With Us

There are many sourcing agents. Here is what makes Boonaj different.

Three Generations of Knowledge

We are not a trading desk. Our family has worked in textiles since our grandfather's power looms in Narowal. That knowledge informs every production decision.

Direct Factory Access

No hidden intermediaries. Direct relationships with factories in five countries — transparent pricing and real accountability.

Global Presence

Pakistan-based operations mean direct factory access and on-the-ground oversight. We are also available for in-person meetings across Europe and North America — never ten time zones away when a decision needs making.

Flexible at Every Scale

From 100 units — same attention at every scale. Sampling, bulk, and seasonal programmes managed through one relationship.

Common Questions

Answers to what buyers ask most before getting in touch.

Where is Boonaj based?

Boonaj is a Pakistan-based apparel sourcing company — we are not a manufacturer. We manage and coordinate production on behalf of international brands across Pakistan, Bangladesh, Vietnam, China and Turkey. We are not a German company. We have no registered office in Europe. However, we can meet clients in person across Europe and North America — just get in touch to arrange.

What is your minimum order quantity?

MOQs vary by category. Denim and activewear start from 100 units per style. Knitwear and outerwear from 300 units. Wovens and workwear from 500 units. Lower MOQs can be discussed for sampling and development orders.

How long does production take?

Standard lead times run 6–12 weeks from approved sample to shipment, depending on category and factory location. Denim and knitwear typically 6–8 weeks. Wovens and activewear 8–10 weeks. Outerwear and workwear 10–12 weeks. A production calendar is shared at order placement.

Can I request samples before placing an order?

Yes. We coordinate proto and fit samples before bulk confirmation. Sample costs are typically charged and credited against your first production order. Sample lead time is 3–4 weeks from approved tech pack or reference.

What quality control process do you use?

AQL-based inspection at three stages — inline during production, pre-shipment audit, and final packing check. Third-party inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas, or Intertek is available on request. All reports are shared with the client.

What certifications do your factories hold?

Factories in our network hold certifications including OEKO-TEX Standard 100, GOTS, SA8000, ISO 9001, and BSCI depending on location and category. We match certification requirements to your target market and compliance needs.

What are your payment terms?

Standard terms are 50% deposit at order confirmation, 50% balance before shipment. You pay the factory directly — Boonaj charges a sourcing and management fee separately. Exact terms are confirmed at enquiry stage.
