Lead times depend on the fabric: about 30 days for single jersey from stock, because we keep 500 tons of greige stock in-house, and about 45 days for most locally sourced knit fabrics such as jersey and fleece. Transit from Alexandria takes about 1 week to most of Europe and about 3 weeks to major US ports.
Egypt has duty-free access to the USA under the QIZ agreement and to Europe under the Euro-Mediterranean agreement (EUR.1). We ship on FOB, CIF, DDP and other terms, depending on what suits your program.
