A Knitwear Partner Since Day One
Twenty years of knitwear experience, a group founded in 2020, and a new automated facility in Humen Town, Dongguan.
← Back to homeBuilt on Twenty Years of Knitwear
Giborn Apparel did not start as a group. It started as a small knitwear workshop, learning the craft one order at a time — how a fabric behaves after washing, why a shoulder seam fails at scale, what separates a sample a buyer approves from one they send back. Two decades of that work is the foundation everything since has been built on. In 2020 the group was formally founded, bringing several production sites under one management structure and one quality standard.
In August 2025 we moved the operation into a new facility in Humen Town, Dongguan — the step that changed what we could take on. Automated hanging production lines replaced manual transfer between stations, four garment factories now run under the group, and more than 3,000 skilled workers are employed across the operation. The craft knowledge did not change. The capacity to apply it consistently, at volume, for brands in Europe, the United States and Australia, did.
How We Got Here
2000s
A small workshop
Knitwear production started at workshop scale, building the craft knowledge the group still runs on.
2020
Group founded
Production sites brought under one management structure and a single shared quality standard.
2025
Relocation & automation
Moved into the new Humen Town facility in August 2025 and commissioned automated hanging production lines.
Today
Serving global brands
Four garment factories and 3,000+ skilled workers producing knitwear for brands across three continents.
Mission, Vision and Values
Mission
To be the knitwear manufacturing partner brands can build on — producing garments to a standard our clients can put their name on, order after order.
Vision
To be recognised among the most dependable knitwear manufacturers serving developed markets, known for consistency rather than promises.
Excellence
The approved sample is the standard. Bulk production is measured against it, not against convenience.
Customer Success
Our work is judged by whether our clients' products sell and repeat, not by whether an order shipped.
Innovation
Automation, fabric development and process improvement are ongoing investments, not one-time upgrades.
Integrity
Honest lead times, honest capability. We would rather decline a job than miss a delivery we promised.
Sustainability
BSCI-audited social compliance, fabric waste reduction, and organic or recycled yarn options on request.
Teamwork
Development, production and QC sit in one operation, so problems get solved rather than handed on.
Shipping to Three Continents
Exporting to developed markets across three continents, with the documentation and compliance standards those markets require.
