Shahdara's garment units mostly stitch for traders. A maker that starts selling under its own name needs woven brand labels, size and wash-care labels and printed price tags, often in small lots and at short notice, which a unit close by can supply.

This small factory makes the labels sewn into clothes. It weaves brand-name labels on a computerised label loom, prints size and wash-care labels on satin or taffeta tape, and prints and cuts hang-tags (the price tags tied to each piece).
Readymade garments are Shahdara's One District One Product, and the big Gandhi Nagar garment market is close by. Most units here do piece-rate job work or sell bulk lots to traders, with no name of their own on the clothes. A unit moving to its own label for shops or online selling needs labels first, often a few thousand at a time and in a hurry before a season. A label maker nearby can take such small orders, make samples quickly and deliver fast.
You need a hall where factories are allowed, since most of the old quarter is residential, plus a label loom, a cutting and folding machine, a label printer, a small press to cut hang-tags, design software and GST registration. The hard parts: the loom is costly and needs a trained operator and designer; small orders mean frequent machine setup; and prices are tight. Never weave another company's brand name or logo. Make only names the buyer owns.
Visit stitching units, traders and uniform makers with a sample book, and help first-time brands design their labels.
