Swazi Apparel to move part of their manufacturing to Thailand

Swazi NZ, Davey Hughes in a YouTube clip has announce they are moving production of their Fleece and Base layer clothing lines from their Levin Factory (here in New Zealand) to Thailand. The technical garments such as raincoats and jackets will still be made in New Zealand.

This in my view represents a not so insignificant change of direction from their original brand values and which they built the brand on.

      In terms of actually how many garments they make in New Zealand that gets exported into Thailand, I don’t have that information. Would think it was not a lot given their climate.

      In terms of how much of their production they are moving over to Thailand: Approximately 50,000 to 60,000 garments of the 97,000 they currently make, according to the Stuff article https://k9.nz/swazinzthai
