Centra Sourcing is a Dhaka-based trading house connecting international buyers with Bangladesh’s finest knit, woven, denim, and sweater apparel factories. Transparent, responsive, and built on real industry expertise.
Global Sourcing. Controlled Execution.
We are Centra Sourcing — a partnership built on two things most sourcing houses cannot offer together: deep technical garment knowledge and international commercial fluency.
Founded in Dhaka in 2023, we bridge Bangladesh’s world-class knit, woven, denim, and sweater manufacturing capacity with buyers across Europe, East Asia, and the Americas. We work as your dedicated team on the ground — handling everything from factory selection and sampling to quality control and shipment.
Direct partnerships with 6+ certified apparel factories spanning Dhaka, Gazipur, and Chittagong. Our network covers knit, woven, and sweater production, with certifications including RSC, BSCI, and Accord across the panel. We visit, assess, and know each factory’s strengths — so you don’t have to.
Our team has handled millions of garment units across major international brands, spanning knit, woven, denim, and sweater categories. We read tech packs, manage TNA schedules, and catch quality issues before they become shipment problems.
We don't just place orders — we own outcomes. Production delays, quality deviations, and compliance gaps are identified and resolved before they reach your desk.
We operate on an FOB basis, with clear costing and no hidden layers. Weekly order updates keep you informed from fabric booking to ex-factory. Our China presence — a branch sourcing office in Wuxi, fabric mill partnerships in Shaoxing and Foshan, and an accessories & trims office in Ningbo — gives us direct access to premium raw materials and hi-tech outerwear manufacturing.
From the first enquiry to the final shipment, we manage every stage of the sourcing process on your behalf. You focus on your brand — we handle everything else.
We identify, evaluate, and select the most suitable factories for your product requirements. Our merchandising team coordinates every stage — from initial costing to bulk production — acting as your dedicated representative on the ground.
We translate your design briefs and tech packs into production-ready samples. Proto, fit, and size set samples are managed end-to-end, with detailed measurement reports and revision tracking at every stage.
Our QC team conducts in-line and final inspections at every partner factory. TNA schedules are tracked weekly, deviations are flagged immediately, and all inspection reports are shared directly with you.
When your target price and the quoted price don’t align, we work backwards. We analyse construction, fabric consumption, trims, and CM to identify savings without compromising quality — presenting alternative options to close the gap.
We work only with factories whose compliance records meet our standards. We facilitate BSCI, RSC, SEDEX, and SMETA audits and provide full traceability documentation — so you can answer to your own customers with confidence.
We manage the full export documentation process — commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin, and inspection certificates. Our goal is clean, error-free documents that clear your customs without delay.
Knit is our strongest suit — the highest-volume, most technically demanding category in Bangladesh’s apparel industry. We also offer full capability in woven, denim, and sweater categories.

We operate as an extension of your team, not as a middleman. Your requirements, timelines, and quality standards come first — we organise everything else around them.
Every costing sheet we share breaks down fabric, trims, CM, and margin separately. You always know where your money is going — no black-box pricing.
We do not work with every factory available — we maintain a focused, assessed panel. Each partner factory is selected for its technical capability, compliance record, and consistency of output.
You communicate directly with the founders and senior team. No account managers, no layers. Faster decisions, faster responses, and full accountability on our end.
Our branch office in Wuxi and fabric partnerships in Shaoxing and Foshan give you direct access to premium Chinese raw materials — reducing lead times and improving fabric quality options beyond what most Bangladesh buying houses can offer.
Our team average age is under 30. We are not a legacy operation. We bring energy, adaptability, and a current understanding of what international buyers expect from a modern sourcing partner.
We are actively building buyer relationships across three key regions — where Bangladesh’s compliance standards, price competitiveness, and production capability align with the sourcing priorities of discerning international buyers.
We are flexible in how we structure our commercial arrangements and adapt to the way each buyer prefers to work. Our primary trading basis is FOB, with full production oversight, quality control, and documentation handled on our end. We are open to discussing terms that suit your procurement process.
We maintain a fully operational branch sourcing office in Wuxi, Jiangsu — staffed by a 5-member team that connects directly with China’s top-tier manufacturers of hi-tech winter jackets and functional outerwear. Beyond Wuxi, we hold fabric mill partnerships in Shaoxing and Foshan for woven and specialty fabrics, and a dedicated accessories & trims sourcing office in Ningbo covering all notions and trim components.
We do not hold certifications ourselves — our partner factories do. Every factory in our panel is assessed for compliance before we place any order.

Behind Centra Sourcing is a team of 8 young professionals — each with focused expertise across merchandising, quality, documentation, and buyer communication. We are driven by a shared commitment to delivering exceptional service to European and Latin American buyers who expect precision, speed, and accountability.
An engineer by training, our Commercial Director brings a rare combination of analytical rigour and genuine global perspective to the business. Having spent seven years living and working across China and France, he possesses deep fluency in cross-cultural commercial environments, a thorough understanding of European buyer expectations, and the communication discipline to operate confidently across time zones and languages. This international exposure — built through years of immersion in two of the world’s most commercially demanding environments — gives Centra Sourcing a front-facing credibility that is uncommon in the Bangladesh trade house space. He leads buyer relationships, commercial strategy, trade finance, and business development.
Our Production Director’s expertise is built on the factory floor, not in a boardroom. As a senior merchandiser at one of Bangladesh’s three largest garment exporters, he managed the end-to-end production of millions of garment units annually for international brands — overseeing fabric procurement, trim specification, pattern-making, TNA management, in-line inspection, and final shipment coordination. His knowledge of knit, woven, and sweater construction, quality systems, and factory operations is not theoretical — it is the product of years of execution under real commercial pressure across complex, high-volume order books. At Centra, he ensures that every order is technically sound, on schedule, and built to exact specification.
We build trust through honest relationships and transparent documentation. What we tell you is what we deliver.
We own our commitments. If something goes wrong, we surface it immediately and solve it — we don’t wait for you to find it.
Details matter in garment production. From measurement tolerances to trim specifications, we treat every detail as critical.
We work best as an extension of your team, not as a vendor at arm’s length. The closer we work together, the better the outcomes.
Every buyer works differently. We adapt our processes, communication style, and reporting to match the way you prefer to work.
We are not satisfied with good enough. Each order is an opportunity to raise the bar — on quality, speed, and service.
Tell us what you need. We’ll come back with a costing, a factory recommendation, or simply a conversation — whichever is most useful to you.
