Wholesale Kids Clothes for Bulgaria Buyers — Direct from Turkey
Bulgaria shares a land border with Turkey, and that changes everything about the sourcing rhythm: trucks cross at Kapıkule and reach Sofia or Plovdiv in one to three days. Bulgarian buyers can therefore restock weekly rather than seasonally, holding minimal inventory and reordering against actual sell-through. Many of our Bulgarian clients place orders of 200-500 pieces every two or three weeks instead of a single large seasonal buy. Because transit is so short, air freight is almost never justified, and even sample delivery is next-day by courier. Duty-free entry applies under the customs union with an A.TR certificate.

- Weekly or fortnightly restocking instead of seasonal bulk buying
- Duty-free entry under the EU-Turkey customs union with A.TR
- Next-day sample courier — approvals in days, not weeks

Questions
Frequently asked
How quickly can goods reach Sofia?+
One to three days by road across the Kapıkule border. Bulgaria is our fastest delivery market by a wide margin.
Can I place small, frequent orders?+
Yes. Because freight is inexpensive, many Bulgarian clients order 200-500 pieces every two to three weeks rather than committing to a large seasonal buy.
Is the total order minimum lower for Bulgaria?+
Yes — we apply a 200 piece total minimum for Bulgarian buyers instead of the standard 300, since restocking is so frequent.
Do I pay import duty?+
No duty on qualifying Turkish-origin apparel with an A.TR certificate. Bulgarian VAT applies at import.
Can I visit the factories?+
Yes. Sofia to Istanbul is a short trip and we regularly arrange showroom and production visits for Bulgarian buyers.
