Hijab & Scarf Manufacturer in China: Fabrics, MOQ & Private Label

September 12, 202611 min readBy Essty Garment

Hijabs and scarves are the highest-frequency repurchase in modest wear — customers buy by colour and fabric, not by season. Sourcing them from a China manufacturer with low MOQ and private label lets a brand build a deep colour wall without tying up cash. This guide covers fabric and production choices.

The two things buyers care about: opacity and hand-feel. Get those right and they reorder forever.

Tip: For everyday wear, viscose or jersey at 70–90 GSM reads opaque and stays put. Avoid unlined chiffon for daily use — it slips and shows.

MOQ & Customisation

Briefing the Factory

  1. Pick fabric + 10–20 colours from our library (faster than custom dye).
  2. Confirm opacity with a swatch (we send physical samples).
  3. Approve a pre-production hijab.
  4. Bulk; reorder winning colours in 10–15 days.
Watch out: a "chiffon hijab" with no lining is the classic return item — too sheer, slips off. Specify jersey or lined viscose for daily wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the hijab MOQ?

100 pcs per colour/style. A 10–20 colour launch is 1,000–2,000 pcs total — enough for a proper colour wall.

Which fabric for daily wear?

Viscose or jersey at 70–90 GSM: opaque, breathable, stays in place. Reserve chiffon for occasion wear.

Can I private label?

Yes — woven main label + care label + retail polybag. Send your logo; we apply at 100+ pcs.
